A full understanding of the biology and behavior of humans cannot be                  complete without the collective contributions of the social sciences, cognitive                  sciences, and neurosciences. This book collects eighty-two of the foundational                  articles in the emerging discipline of social neuroscience.The book addresses five                  main areas of research: multilevel integrative analyses of social behavior, using                  the tools of neuroscience, cognitive science, and social science to examine specific                  cases of social interaction; the relationships between social cognition and the                  brain, using noninvasive brain imaging to document brain function in various social                  situations; rudimentary biological mechanisms for motivation, emotion, and                  attitudes, and the shaping of these mechanisms by social factors; the biology of                  social relationships and interpersonal processes; and social influences on biology                  and health.
