How does the brain regulate sexual behavior, or control our body
weight? How do we cope with stress? Addressing these questions and
many more besides, this thoroughly revised new edition reflects the
significant advances that have been made in the study of
neuroendocrinology over the last twenty years. The text examines
the importance of the hypothalamus in regulating hormone secretion
from the endocrine glands, describing novel sites of hormone
release including bone, heart, skeletal muscle and liver. The role
of steroid hormone, neurotransmitter and peptide receptors, and the
molecular responses of target tissues, is integrated into the
discussion of the neuroendocrine brain, especially through changes
in gene expression. Particular attention is attached to
neuropeptides, including their profound influence on behavior.
Complete with new full-color figures throughout, along with review
and essay questions for each chapter, this is an ideal resource for
undergraduate and graduate students of neuroscience, psychology,
biology and physiology.
