  • Neuroscience of Social Behavior

    Bridging the Mind and Society
    • 1st Edition
    • Mikhail Votinov
    • English
    Social behavior is fundamental to human experience, yet the neural mechanisms that govern how individuals perceive, interpret, and respond to one another are only beginning to be understood. Neuroscience of Social Behavior: Bridging the Mind and Society offers a rigorous and integrative examination of the biological foundations of social interaction, synthesizing current knowledge from neuroscience, psychology, sociology, and anthropology into a coherent framework.The book addresses the full scope of social neuroscience, from the evolutionary origins of the social brain to the challenges posed by digital communication and artificial intelligence. Core topics include social perception, language and communication, empathy, mentalizing, moral cognition, decision-making, and the neural basis of both prosocial and antisocial behavior. The text further explores how hormones and neurochemistry modulate social bonds, how social reward and pain systems shape motivation, and how clinical conditions disrupt social functioning. Computational and translational perspectives are integrated throughout, connecting laboratory findings to real-world implications.By bridging multiple levels of analysis, from neural circuits and neurochemistry to behavior and societal context, this volume equips readers with a comprehensive understanding of how the brain supports, and sometimes undermines, our capacity for social life.
