{"product_id":"the-genetics-of-cognitive-neuroscience","title":"The Genetics of Cognitive Neuroscience","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Genetics of Cognitive Neuroscience aims to give the reader a working understanding of the influence of specific genetics variants on cognition, affective regulation, personality and central nervous system disorders. It has been known that the aspects of behavior runs in families; studies shows that characteristics related to cognition, temperament and all major psychiatric disorders are heritable. The book offers a primer on understanding the genetic mechanisms of such inherited traits. The chapters emphasize fundamental issues regarding the design of experiments, the use of bioinformatics tools, the integration of data from different levels of analysis and the validity of finding, arguing that association between genes and cognitive processes must be replicable and placed in a neurobiological context for validation.Table of Contents:Preface Introduction I.
