What I really liked about the textbook are the last two chapters: one on evolution of the nervous system, in which the role of genetics and development interact to produce the form that enables neural function. The concluding chapter on “Ways of Exploring,” will be welcome to instructor and student, alike. It thoughtfully discusses the use and selection of animal models in neurobiology research, and most importantly, the new techniques, such as optogenetics and connectomics technology are made accessible for the aspiring neurobiologist, fresh from introductory biology. In particular, discussion of genetic techniques including the likely revolutionary genome engineering made possible by the CRISPR-Cas9 technology makes this text up-to-date. ed.
