The Biopsychology Colouring Book by Suzanne Higgs

The Biopsychology Colouring Book by Suzanne Higgs

Perfect for revision, colouring is a fun and creative way for students to learn biopsychology, whilst taking a break from screens. Including short simple introductions to each topic, this book asks students to identify the anatomy and complete the label before moving on to add colour to the illustrations.

I found this a helpful way to shift gears from reading a textbook but remain focused on consolidating knowledgeIt would make an excellent companion to learning and revision.

-- Nick Sherratt
A brilliant colouring book with concise, simple summaries that can be picked up and put down when you need to check your knowledge.

-- Bethan
A fun and relaxing way to consolidate learning that can be looked back upon with ease as a revision tool! -- Niamh Hunniford

Clean and simple layout, clear instructions, accessible information, and attractive diagrams make it very appealing and engaging. It′s a great interactive revision tool and learning prompt.

-- Jen
I am teaching bio psychology next term and this looks like a great idea for my students for learning all the different parts (and a refresher for myself too!) - Will recommend to the students! -- Nicola
A very clever, effective, and smart way of helping me progress within my studies of biopsychology. It made learning about the topic a lot more interesting and kept me engaged. Colouring also had the additional benefit of helping me stay relaxed whilst revising. Really helpful! -- Emily May Watson
It has allowed me to not only associate names to different biological areas, but also colours, which improves my ability to remember and recall such information during my test and exams. Being able to combine my hobby with studying has created a very relaxing and enjoyable environment for me while using this book and has increased my motivation to continue working hard to reach my academic goals. 
-- Oluwasemilore Akande
Combines the academic information together concisely and accurately allowing you to learn in a fun and less-stressful way!

Biology can be difficult to grasp, but the book summaries everything you need to know and gives you numerous opportunities to practice and apply your knowledge. It has helped with my studies and I can′t think of any improvements that can be made to it! -- Leah Lawrence

Professor Suzanne Higgs has a degree in Psychology, Philosophy and Physiology from the Univer­sity of Oxford, UK. During her degree she became fascinated by the effects of drugs on the brain and behaviour, which motivated her to pursue a PhD in Psychopharmacology at the University of Durham. After her PhD, she worked as a Postdoctoral researcher at the University of Oxford before moving to the University of Birmingham, UK to take up a faculty position in the School of Psychology. She has taught at all levels on the BSc in Psychology programme at Birmingham and has over 20 years of lecturing experience. She specialises in teaching psychopharmacology and the biological bases of motivated behaviours, in particular, the psychobiology of appetite, which is the topic of her research. Dr Alison Cooper’s interest in Neuroscience began during her Natural Sciences degree when she accidentally found herself studying the properties of neurones that form the circuit that controls grasshopper movement. She pursued an interest in understanding how the activity of neuronal cells could underpin behaviour for her PhD by researching the properties and functions of the parts of the brain that contribute to human motor behaviour. During this time, she became interested in neuropharmacology, and the link between synaptic neurotransmission and human function/ dysfunction has remained the focus of her thoughts. Following various Postdoctoral positions, she took an ever-greater role in Neuroscience education of undergraduates in various professional and non-professional undergraduate programmes. In recent years she has used her experience to extend her interest in education to the public who want to understand their own or others’ brains through public engagement in person and, globally, through online courses. Professor Jonathan Lee has a degree in Natural Sciences, specialising in Neuroscience, from the University of Cambridge. He has always been interested in the value of studying biological mechanisms in order to understand behaviour. This interest has been particularly focused on unconscious memories and their impact on behaviour. In his PhD and Postdoctoral research, also at the University of Cambridge, he studied the contribution of gene expression and pharmacological mechanisms in the processes underlying long-term fear and addictive drug memories. He has continued these research interests since moving to the University of Birmingham, using his research experience to teach an introduction to Biological Psychology in the BSc Psychology programme.
