- Explores the relationship between psychology and neuroscience
by focusing on "reductionism", the theory that the nature of
complex things can always be explained by simpler or more
fundamental things.
- Written by leading philosophers in the field.
- Discusses recent theorizing in the mind-brain sciences and
reviews and weighs the evidence in favour of reductionism against
the backdrop of recent important advances within psychology and the
neurosciences.
- Collects the latest work on central topics where neuroscience is now making inroads in traditional psychological terrain, such as adaptive behaviour, reward systems, consciousness, and social cognition.
