520 _a"In my Textbook of Physiological Psychology, published in 1967, I attempted to present a fair and thorough coverage of the available experimental literature and deliberately refrained from imposing on this material conclusions and generalizations that reflected my personal biases. I have found this type of presentation useful in my own graduate level courses because it invites synopsis and evaluation by the student instead of uncritical acceptance of pre-digested and biased opinions. However, this approach assumes a fair degree of prior. preparation and sophistication and is not, in most instances, readily adaptable to an introductory course. The present textbook, Essentials of Physiological Psychology, is specifically designed to fit the needs of an introductory course in physiological psychology. It covers the subjects that were included in the earlier version but emphasizes synopsis, synthesis, explanation, and conclusion. The principal developments in each area are presented in terms of key experimental findings and their theoretical implications. No attempt is made to present an exhaustive review of the literature." —Preface
