This book is an introduction to the emerging field of evolutionary
cognitive neuroscience, a branch of neuroscience that combines the
disciplines of evolutionary psychology and cognitive neuroscience.
It outlines the application of cognitive neuroscientific methods
(e.g., functional magnetic resonance imaging, transcranial magnetic
stimulation, magneto- and electroencephalography, and the use of
neuropsychiatric and neurosurgical patients) to answer empirical
questions posed from an evolutionary meta-theoretical perspective.
Chapters outline the basics of cognitive evolution and how the
methods of cognitive neuroscience can be employed to answer
questions about the presence of evolved cognitive adaptations.
Written for graduate students and researchers, the book presents
the major topics of study undertaken by evolutionary cognitive
neuroscientists - such as language evolution, intelligence and face
processing - and serves as a primer upon which to base further
study in the discipline.
