Features: This book emphasizes that behavior can be studied at the cellular and molecular levels. It elaborates on the central principle that all behavior is an expression of neural activity and introduces the profound insights provided by modern neuroscience for the study of behavior. It aims to encourage medical students to understand and research behavior using a method that incorporates both the social and biological attributes of behavior, thereby advancing the study of brain mechanisms of behavior and developing new diagnostic, treatment, and prevention methods. The book emphasizes the cultivation of comprehensive analytical thinking in modern neuroscience and the education of fundamental principles. We firmly believe that it is crucial for medical students to understand major principles and mechanisms in the nervous system, deepen and enhance their understanding and communication of knowledge in related disciplines, and avoid getting bogged down in details and low-level repetition. The content selected for this book is an extension and broadening based on the fifth editions of textbooks in relevant disciplines.
