Carlson pursued his undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois. He had planned to study nuclear physics, but when he discovered in an introductory psychology course that psychology was really a science, he decided that was what he wanted to do. Before changing his major, Carlson talked with several professors and visited their laboratories, and when he saw what physiological psychologists do, he knew that he had found his niche. He stayed on at Illinois and received his Ph.D. Then, after a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Iowa, Carlson came to the University of Massachusetts, where he’s been ever since. When he arrived at UMass, Carlson established a laboratory where he investigated the role of the limbic system in species-typical and learned behaviors, continuing work he had done at the University of Illinois. He received several Biomedical Research Support Grants and a research grant from NICHD. As he became more involved in textbook writing, Carlson began to focus his attention more and more on this activity and on his teaching. Carlson took the opportunity afforded by his first sabbatical leave to write the first edition of Physiology of Behavior. He very much enjoyed the experience, and this endeavor taught him much more about behavioral neuroscience. He was gratified with the positive response of his students and of the colleagues who adopted the book. The pleasure provided by this response and by the enjoyment of keeping up with the literature and writing about it has kept him going for 12 editions. (He has no plans to stop writing.) Carlson retired from UMass in the fall of 2004 but continues to keep up with developments in the field of behavioral neuroscience and to revise his book. The Psychology Department has kindly let him keep an office at the university, which makes it easier for him to continue interacting with his former colleagues. Carlson’s interests outside of writing include spending time with his family, traveling, fly fishing, skiing, and flying his small airplane. As an undergraduate psychology major at Cornell University, Melissa A. Birkett discovered courses in biopsychology, behavior, endocrinology, and evolutionary psychology. There, she was introduced to interdisciplinary research incorporating multiple perspectives in the challenging task of understanding behavior. She became interested in learning about behavior and its underlying mechanisms. She worked as an undergraduate research assistant in several laboratories on projects ranging from insect behavior to sleep in undergraduates. Those fo...

The information is comprehensive, thought provoking and provides a very solid background in life span science. It provides a platform for students to see how this research can inform practice… I have experimented with different texts and collections of readings, but this text is by far the best. It provides significant up-to-date research and puts the research into a meaningful context.” Anne T. Davis, California State University Fresno “The Broderick/Blewitt text is ideal for covering all areas of development with specific applications for students going into helping fields. It is what I had been looking for… Broderick and Blewitt are comprehensive without being excessive.” Vanessa Ewing, University of Northern Colorado On the text’s digital content: “I believe this feature to be a significant strength of the text. I have struggled for years in creating written scenarios that bring the information to real life and bridge the theory to research to practice gap. These activities help the student make that leap…. The questions are a good representation of basic information recall and higher order thinking and application questions. As an instructor I am thankful for the videos as they illustrate the examples better than a written case example.” Kara McGoey, Duquesne University “I found that the writing style was the text’s main strength. The material was presented in language that was easy to read and understand. The examples provided were timely… I found myself becoming engaged in the material as I reviewed the chapters.” Harry Lehwald, The Ohio State University About the Author Patricia Broderick is a research associate at the Bennett-Pierce Prevention Research Center at Penn State University and professor emerita, founder,...
