Neuroscience by George J Augustine
For over 25 years, Neuroscience has been the most comprehensive and clearly written neuroscience textbook on the market. This level of excellence continues in the Seventh Edition, with a balance of animal, human, and clinical studies that discuss the dynamic field of neuroscience from cellular signaling to cognitive function. New learning objectives, and more concise sections make the content even more accessible than before. Neuroscience provides a bridge between the undergraduate and medical school worlds. It brings the relevance of neuroscience to both those exploring careers in the field as undergraduates and those developing core neuroscience understanding for medical school. It accomplishes this by presenting a balance of animal, human, and clinical studies that discuss the dynamic field of neuroscience from cellular signaling to cognitive function.
“Excellent neuroscience text for both undergraduate and graduate student populationsThe writing style is easy to comprehend. The figures are excellent and give a great visual interpretation for the content.” - Tanae reed, Eastern Kentucky University
“The images and online resources from Oxford are worth making this the assigned text book alone. The reading is comprehensive, current and while difficult for psychology majors - is on par with other biology texts.” - Katherine Serfine, University of Texas at El Paso

George Augustine is a neuroscientist known for his work on presynaptic mechanisms of neurotransmitter release and his contributions to the development of optogenetics, a tool to control neural activity using light. He is a Professor of Neuroscience and Mental Health, and the Irene Tan Liang Kheng Chari Professor in Neuroscience at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Jennifer Groh studies how the brain processes spatial information, with a particular emphasis on vision, hearing, and eye movements. She is the author of an award-winning popular science book on these topics. She is a Professor of Neurobiology and of Psychology and Neuroscience at Duke University, where she also holds secondary appointments in Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering. Leonard White studies the structure and connectivity of the mammalian brain using ultra high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging and lightsheet microscopy. He is at Duke University where he serves as an educator at the graduate/medical school and undergraduate levels. He is an Associate Professor in Neurology, Associate Director of the Duke Institute for Brain Science, and Director of Undergraduate Studies in Neuroscience.
