Edited By
Joaquin Fuster, Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, University of California, Los Angeles, USA
Description
This is the fourth edition of the undisputed classic on the prefrontal cortex, the principal "executive" structure of the brain. Because
of its role in such cognitive functions as working memory, planning, and decision-making, the prefrontal cortex is critically involved
in the organization of behavior, language, and reasoning. Prefrontal dysfunction lies at the foundation of several psychotic and neurodegenerative
disorders, including schizophrenia and dementia.
Audience
Neuroscientists, neuropsychologists, psychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, neurosurgeons, rehabilitation professionals, and graduate students in neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry.
