– Expanded discussion of fMRI data analysis, with separate chapters on standard hypothesis-driven analyses and advanced exploratory analyses.
– Expanded coverage of experimental design that includes new approaches to efficient creation of fMRI experiments.
– Revised discussion of the physiological basis of fMRI to include recent discoveries about the origins of the BOLD response.
– A new Ethics chapter that discusses controversies, ethical and social concerns, and popular interpretations of fMRI research.
– Increased coverage of the integration of fMRI with other cognitive neuroscience techniques.
– New topics in the Advanced Methods chapter, reflecting cutting-edge developments in the field.
