  • Neural Science: what could be more important?!

    This is a textbook, with all the scope and all the weight that implies. It is beautifully written in a readable and organized style by a number of authors, one of whom is Eric Kandel. It is his preceding book IN SEARCH OF MEMORY that served as an introduction as well as a prompt to continue updating in a field last studied decades ago. The recent knowledge gained in the field makes this vast body of knowledge somehow more accessible and less mystifying. What tells us this? Our brains.

  • I specifically ordered the 5th edition not 4th!

    You ripped me off! This book is the 4th edition. Published in 2000! Why would I pay $38 for a textbook published almost 18 years ago. Of course it’s nonreturnable you crook!

  • Deal of the Century!

    This text costs well over $100. Got it on eBay for $8.65 INCLUDING shipping!!! The info said "good" condition. I would call it "excellent". I'm delighted with my purchase. Hey, I think this "eBay" thing is going to catch on! Mike
