Animals often exhibit intriguing and captivating patterns of
behavior, from migration and homing, to communication. But how is
this behavior controlled? Behavioral Neurobiology introduces
undergraduate students and other readers to the fascinating field
of neuroethology - the study of the neurobiological processes
underlying animal behavior. Written in a lively, easy to read
style, it examines the key concepts and ideas which underpin this
intricate and elegant subject, and describes many of the
ground-breaking discoveries that have helped us to unravel the
mechanisms behind the behaviors we can observe. Beginning with a
look at the history of the study of behavior, from Aristotle to
recent breakthroughs and predictions for the future, the book then
reviews the ethological and neurobiological concepts that
constitute the essential tools of behavioral neurobiology, before
moving on to the field of neuroethology itself. In each chapter,
the text not only describes the major findings in each area, but
also the methods used to obtain these results. Behavioral
Neurobiology has the following accompanying online resources: For
students: * Multiple choice questions for you to test yourself *
Useful weblinks * A biography of the author and interview about key
questions in behavioral neurobiology For lecturers: * Answers to
the questions provided at the end of each chapter * Figures from
the book in a downloadable format * Journal Club material for each
chapter
