Springer - The Prefrontal Cortex as an Executive Brain Book

Explore the complex roles of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in this specialized academic text from Springer. While many studies separate the PFC into strictly executive or emotional categories, this book examines how the region serves as a center for integrating these functions along with social behavior. Readers will find a detailed examination of the functional organization of the PFC in both human and nonhuman primates. The text moves beyond traditional views to look at how the brain manages the connection between executive control and emotional responses. This resource is designed for those studying neurology and clinical neurophysiology who need to understand the integrative nature of the brain's social and emotional processing centers.
