Since its publication in 1949, D.O. Hebb's, The Organization of Behavior
 has been one of the most influential books in the fields of psychology 
and neuroscience. However, the original edition has been unavailable 
since 1966, ensuring that Hebb's comment that a classic normally means 
"cited but not read" is true in his case. This new edition rectifies a 
long-standing problem for behavioral neuroscientists--the inability to 
obtain one of the most cited publications in the field. The Organization of Behavior
 played a significant part in stimulating the investigation of the 
neural foundations of behavior and continues to be inspiring because it 
provides a general framework for relating behavior to synaptic 
organization through the dynamics of neural networks. D.O. 
Hebb was also the first to examine the mechanisms by which environment 
and experience can influence brain structure and function, and his ideas
 formed the basis for work on enriched environments as stimulants for 
behavioral development. References to Hebb, the Hebbian cell 
assembly, the Hebb synapse, and the Hebb rule increase each year. These 
forceful ideas of 1949 are now applied in engineering, robotics, and 
computer science, as well as neurophysiology, neuroscience, and 
psychology--a tribute to Hebb's foresight in developing a foundational 
neuropsychological theory of the organization of behavior.
