First published in 1981 by Elsevier, Principles of Neural Science is an influential neuroscience textbook edited by Eric R. Kandel, James H. Schwartz, and Thomas M. Jessell. The original edition was 468 pages; now on the fifth edition, the book has grown to 1747 pages. The second edition was published in 1985, third in 1991, fourth in 2000. The fifth and latest edition was published on October 26th, 2012 and includes Steven A. Siegelbaum and A.J. Hudspeth as editors. [1] It has been hailed as the "Bible of Neuroscience" having been co-written by the "Father of Neuroscience", Eric Kandel. [2]

Content

Principles of Neural Science is often assigned as a textbook for many undergraduate and graduate/medical neuroscience and neurobiology courses. The book attempts to at least introduce every aspect of our most modern understanding of the brain. The fifth edition is divided into sixty-seven chapters, organized into nine parts:

  • Part I: Overall Perspective
  • Part II: Cell and Molecular Biology of the Neuron
  • Part III: Synaptic Transmission
  • Part IV: The Neural Basis of Cognition
  • Part V: Perception
  • Part VI: Movement
  • Part VII: The Unconscious and Conscious Processing of Neural Information
  • Part VIII: Development and the Emergence of Behavior
  • Part IX: Language, Thought, Affect, and Learning
