Clinical Cultural Neuroscience aims to provide clinicians and researchers with an overview of contemporary topics relevant to the study of culture in psychology and neuroscience. Within a translational thematic framework, this multidisciplinary volume surveys our current understanding of human behavior and culture along the spectrum of health and disease across multiple levels of analysis, from molecular genetics to sociocultural environment.
Introduction to Clinical Cultural Neuroscience aims to provide clinicians and researchers with an overview of contemporary topics relevant to the study of culture in psychology and neuroscience. While comprehensive volumes dedicated to cultural or cross-cultural psychology, cultural neuropsychology, and cultural neuroscience are readily available, the accumulated theoretical and empirical findings remain relatively sequestered within each of those academicsubspecialties.
In Clinical Cultural Neuroscience, Otto Pedraza enlists experts in culture, psychology, and neuroscience to discuss the latest evidence on topics ranging from language and memory to visual perception and attention, all within the context of health and disease. This volume dives into a complex truth: that humans are fully cultural and fully biological, and the mind cannot be understood completely without a multidisciplinary and multi-level approach.
