Book Title: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Author: Huettel, S.A., Song, A. W., & McCarthy, G.

Selection Statement:

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been the cornerstone technique of my research for the last 20 years. fMRI is often bestowed with mythical properties of certainty and heralded as a “window into the mind.” But as with any other technique, the key to effective use of fMRI is developing a methodologically rigorous, theoretically motivated question. Written by my earliest mentors, this textbook takes an extremely complex technique and makes it accessible to the broad fields that comprise cognitive neuroscience.
