Klappentext The 2011 volume of The Year in Cognitive Neuroscience presents leading scientists current thinking on topics including: challenges and opportunities in social neuroscience; the neurobiological basis of seeing words; bayesian models of uncertainty, behavior, and the brain; behavioral and neural evidence for the porous boundaries between explicit and implicit memory;perception of auditory signals; human category learning 2.0; animal emotion; and the human connectome.NOTE: Annals volumes are available for sale as individual books or as a journal.
