"This text folds the new field of neuroscience for design into well-established environment-behavior (E-B) methods and approaches. Illustrated evidence-based building and open space case studies demonstrate E-B's continuing design impact. Fundamental theory and practical research methods are presented for planning, programming, designing, and evaluating the effects of physical environments in use."--BOOK JACKET.
