Biopsychology, Global Edition, 11th Edition by authors John Pinel and Steven Barnes presents a clear, engaging introduction to the topic offering a unique combination of biopsychological science and personal, reader-oriented discourse, ideal for students studying Physiological Psychology and Biopsychology courses.
Well-known for its accessible and student-focused approach to the discipline, the book successfully interweaves the fundamentals of the field with clinical case studies, social issues, personal implications, useful metaphors, and memorable anecdotes.
The plethora of themed features, and visual illustrations will challenge your critical thinking skills and support your understanding of the concepts introduced.
The latest edition also incorporates two new emerging themes ('Thinking About Epigenetics' and 'Consciousness') and includes up-to-date coverage of the most recent developments in the field.
Highlights of content changes include the following:
Dynamic content designed for the way today's students read, think, and learn.
Integrated within the narrative, theory and concepts are brought to life through interactives and videos created to empower students to engage with concepts, and take an active role in learning. Revel's media interactives have been designed to be completed quickly, and videos are brief, so students stay focused and on task.
Revel's quizzing, integrated throughout as well as at the end of each module, provides students opportunities to check their understanding at regular intervals before moving on.
Revel's writing functionality, available in select courses, enables educators to integrate writing - among the best ways to foster and assess critical thinking - into the course without significantly impacting their grading burden. Self-paced Journaling Prompts throughout the narrative encourage students to express their thoughts without breaking stride in their reading. Assignable Shared Writing Activities direct students to share written responses with classmates, fostering peer discussion.
Highlighting, note taking, and a glossary let students customise their reading and studying experience. Instructors can add notes for students too, including reminders or study tips.
Revel is an instructor-led product.
