Behavioral neurobiology : an integrative approach / Günther K.H. Zupanc, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts ; foreword by Theodore H. Bullock.

From the use of echolocation in bats to long-distance migration in salmon, animals exhibit an intriguing array of different behaviors. But how are all these behaviors controlled? Behavioral neurobiology introduces the fascinating field of neuroethology - the study of the neurobiological processes un...

520 |a From the use of echolocation in bats to long-distance migration in salmon, animals exhibit an intriguing array of different behaviors. But how are all these behaviors controlled? Behavioral neurobiology introduces the fascinating field of neuroethology - the study of the neurobiological processes underlying animal behavior. Written in a lively, easy-to-read style, this is both an autohritative and accessible introduction to the subject, assuming no prior knowledge of animal behavior or neuroethology. It uses a comparative zoological approach which emphasizes common ideas, giving you a thorough understanding of the principal concepts of behavioral neurobiology without an overwhelming amount of detail. It also examines many of the major discoveries that have helped to unravel this intricate subject, and introduces you to the researchers behind them, along with their key experiments. Now in its third edition, Behavioral neurobiology has been comprehensively updated to reflect the fast-moving development of neuroethology.
