The potential for cognitive neuroscience to shed light on social behaviour is increasingly being acknowledged and is set to become an important new approach in the field of psychology. Standing at the vanguard of this development, The Cognitive Neuroscience of Social Behaviour provides a state-of-the-art contribution to a subject still in its infancy. Divided into three parts, the book presents an overview of research into neural substrates of social interactions, the cognitive neuroscience of social cognition and human disorders of social behaviour and cognition.

This book is at the cutting edge of the rapidly emerging field of the cognitive neuroscience of social behaviour. It brings together leading researchers from neuroscience, animal behaviour, cognition and psychopathology; and manages to weave together state-of-the-art reviews, that are both informative and exciting, into a coherent volume that is bound to guide future developments in this important field. - Dr. Philip J. Corr, Goldsmiths College, University of London
