Abstract

This book is intended for the reader who already has some familiarity with psychobiology. It is for researchers, graduate students, and upper level undergraduates who are interested in the topic of motivated behavior in animals and people. Our hope is that it will not only serve as a text for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses, but also that it will be enjoyed by those doing research on motivation and/or reward processes.
