An introduction to the general relationships between human brain and human behaviour.

Both known facts and realistic possibilities of brain function are considered.

Prior high school courses in biology and chemistry are helpful. PREREQ: PSYC 1105 or 1st-year science course (preferably chemistry or biology). (lec 3, lab 3) cr 3
