Driven by the central theme of context, this multidisciplinary textbook delves into how environmental factors shape our perception of situations influencing stress responses and physiological reactions. Lambert emphasizes lifelong neuroplasticity, showcasing the brain's remarkable ability to adapt to changing environmental pressures.These themes resonate with students as they learn about strategies to enhance their own neural health. The power of storytelling brings current findings about the brain's design and psychology to the classroom. Noteworthy features include clinical applications woven throughout and engaging elements like "Brain Scene Investigation" and "Context Matters" to draw students in and ignite curiosity.

New to this edition is a heightened awareness of inclusivity and diversity among researchers who are contributing knowledge to the scientific literature; importantly, scientists from diverse populations are featured in chapter spotlights so that every student sees a scientist who looks like them. Integrated multimedia in the enhanced e-Book and a comprehensive resource program on Oxford Learning Link provide lecture PowerPoints, a Test Bank, and more, ensuring a robust foundation for both teaching and assessment.

Kelly Lambert is a behavioral neuroscientist interested in experience-based neuroplasticity. She enjoys teaching such courses as Behavioral Neuroscience, Clinical Neuroscience, and Neuroplasticity Seminar. She and her students are interested in using preclinical animal models to learn more about the neurobiology of stress, resilience, depression, parenting, and natural enrichment.

In addition to publishing more than seventy research articles, Dr. Lambert has published two textbooks (Biological Psychology and Clinical Neuroscience) and three mainstream books (Lifting Depression: A Neuroscientist's Hands-On Approach to Activating Your Brain's Healing Power, The Lab Rat Chronicles: A Neuroscientist Reveals Life Lessons from the Planet's Most Successful Mammals, and, most recently, Well-Grounded: The Neurobiology of Rational Decisions.

Dr. Lambert's work has been featured on several news outlets including the National Geographic Radio Show, Big Picture Science, To the Best of Our Knowledge, WIRED, and CBS Sunday Morning. Her behavioral research was described in her 2019 TEDx Bermuda talk.
