| book description |

This revised textbook, first published in 1993, has been updated three times and validated through 30 years of use in Chinese universities. It was recognized by the Education Ministry of China in 2012 and re-verified by Peking University in 2022. Offering a cutting-edge approach, it incorporates research from high-impact interdisciplinary journals, keeping it at the forefront of brain function studies.The updated English version features revisions in key chapters, offering insights into the differences between humans and animals, and emphasizing the creative origins of mankind. It highlights new theories on intelligence, focusing on the role of neural structures like synapses, dendritic spines, and axon trees, rather than the traditional measures of brain size or neuron count. It also explores the impact of oscillatory mechanisms like cross-frequency and triple coupling on both cognitive and emotional processes, such as memory consolidation and the synchronization of EEG and heart rate.This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in advanced brain function research, offering a comprehensive, up-to-date perspective on the field's most current theories.
