The most widely used text in its course area, Dr. James W. Kalat's BIOLOGICAL PSYCHOLOGY appeals to students and instructors alike. Throughout all eleven editions, the goal has been to make biological psychology accessible to psychology students, not just to biology majors and pre-meds. The goal has also been to convey the excitement of the search for biological explanations of behavior. Kalat believes that biological psychology is "the most interesting topic in the world," and this text convinces many students--and perhaps you, too--with its clear writing style, amusing anecdotes, and intriguing examples. A media-rich, highly interactive online eBook integrates the text with videos, animations, and an online bio-lab component, making it easier for you to learn.
