In this volume of original papers, the editors have assembled the work of some of the most eminent experts in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and neuropsychology with the goal of integrating the diverse and growing body of research emerging in these diverse fields. The need for such a synthesis is clear. Today, neuronal events are being described with increasing precision, while our understanding of the neuroanatomy of the central nervous system has grown tremendously. We have also learned a great deal about how neurons communicate with one another, and the dynamic neurochemical and neurophysiological processes involved in information processing. However, all of this information would be lifeless if it were not possible to relate neurobiological events to behavior. The ultimate goal of those working in the field of cognitive neuroscience, and those who have contributed to this volume, is to develop as complete a description as possible of the processes of the mind. With this goal in mind, this volume offers findings that show how detailed information on neurochemical and neurophysiological processes in the brain can help us understand neurobiological events that lead to complex human behavior. Each part of the book begins with an introduction and ends with a commentary by the editors, integrating and highlighting the main themes of the chapters. Throughout, the editors convey the excitement of the field and point out the challenge of unresolved problems. Written for graduate students, clinicians, and researchers, this work will also appeal to a large audience of neuroscientists, psychologists, and neuropsychologists.
