— Professor Bruce Hood, University of Bristol, UK
‘The way in which genes and environment shape brain networks underlying human behavior is now among the most active issues in science. This new edition of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience provides a comprehensive approach to theory, data and application to this issue and others within the perspectives of Cognitive and Social Neuroscience.’
—Michael I. Posner, Professor Emeritus, University of Oregon, US
‘This book, which launched the field of developmental cognitive neuroscience 13 years ago, shows no sign of aging. This up-to-date and newly revised volume eloquently captures the key domains of the discipline and will prove essential reading to both students and established scientists alike. Well-written and well-researched, this revised edition will serve as both a resource and inspiration for anyone interested in the intersection of brain and cognitive development.’
—Professor Charles A. Nelson III, Harvard University Medical School and Children’s Hospital Boston, US
