Description

This course will begin with an introduction to the physiological basis of behaviour. The biological approach will continue through consideration of basic questions in perception, conditioning and learning, and motivation and emotion. These will lead to a discussion of abnormal behaviour and of the question of what it is that makes us uniquely human.
