Reviews
'This masterfully written text threads the needle between being a cutting-edge and comprehensive state-of-the-art reference on all human neuroimaging methods, and a highly accessible and perspective-building book that one will want to read from cover to cover. I look forward to purchasing a copy for everyone in my lab.' Peter Bandettini, Director of the Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Core Facility (FMRIF), National Institute of Health
'Well written, nicely illustrated, and authoritative, this book is certainly to be recommended both to those starting out in the field and to those wanting to deepen and widen their neuroimaging knowledge.' Vincent P. Giampietro, King's College London
'This is a valuable reference for those interested, and currently utilizing, human neuroimaging in their research. It provides a strong neurophysiological basis for the methods, a physics basis for the instrumentation, and modern analytical tools useful for the quantification of data. I highly recommend this book!' Lewis A. Wheaton, Georgia Institute of Technology
