Huttenlocher collection, where you can delve into the insightful world of \u003cem\u003eNeural Plasticity\u003c\/em\u003e and other intriguing works. Peter R. Huttenlocher was a distinguished neuroscientist known for his pioneering research on the developing human brain. His contributions have significantly shaped our understanding of neural development and plasticity, offering profound insights into how the brain can adapt, heal, and reorganise itself in response to learning and injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe books in this category fall under Philosophy \u0026amp; Psychology, providing a unique blend of scientific knowledge and philosophical inquiry. Whether you're a student, a professional, or merely an enthusiast of neuroscience and psychology, Huttenlocher’s writings are accessible and thought-provoking, making complex ideas comprehensible to readers with varying levels of expertise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExplore this collection to gain a deeper appreciation for the adaptability of the human brain and the influential theories of neural development proposed by one of the leading experts in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"neural-plasticity-by-peter-r-huttenlocher-9780674007437","title":"Neural Plasticity","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNeural Plasticity\u003c\/i\u003e—the brain's ability to change in response to normal developmental processes, experience, and injury—is a critically important phenomenon for both neuroscience and psychology. Increasing evidence about the extent of plasticity—long past the supposedly critical first three years—has recently emerged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNeural Plasticity\u003c\/i\u003e offers the first succinct and lucid integration of this research and its implications. Pointing out the negative and the positive consequences of plasticity, Peter Huttenlocher describes plasticity in children and adults (in normal ageing and in response to trauma), in sensory systems, the motor cortex, higher cortical functions, and language development, proceeding system by system, and paying particular attention to the cerebral cortex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the book's strengths is its range of references, not only to studies on human subjects but to the experimental study of animal models as well. This book will be a unique contribution to research and to the literature on clinical neuroscience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000688787692,"sku":"9780674007437","price":205.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/26662043482427.jpg?v=1763297412"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/peter-r-huttenlocher.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
