There have been rapid and important advances in all behavioural
sciences in recent years. These advances have in one sense been
very diverse and specialised - sufficiently so for a scientist to
quickly lose touch with the current concerns of even neighbouring
researches: but in some cases the developments have seemed also to
be fundamental and perhaps convergent, with implications across a
range of disciplines. In either case there is a real, and
increasing, need for scientists to communicate their discoveries
and to a new generation of students in their own. Problems in the
Behavioural Sciences is designed to meet this need. The books are
by leading researchers, and deal with problems or topics that are
attracting a special current interest. The central subject matter
is psychology, but many of the issues will need to be pursued
across existing (and fluid) boundaries between psychology and other
behavioural sciences like physiology, pharmacology, sociology,
ethology and linguistics. The central idea of this book is that
biology, and particularly evolution, provides the best starting
point for the study of emotion. In particular, it is argued that
all the conventional properties of emotion such as expression,
feeling, and motivation can be considered in a scientific manner,
and useful conclusions drawn therefrom. The major part of the book
involves the application of this central idea to a wide variety of
the phenomena of emotion. The resultant review should be useful as
an undergraduate text, and so explanations in the text are aimed at
the non-specialist. At the same time, the specific conclusions
drawn in the book should be of interest to all those who do
research on emotion, and particularly those who need a solid
framework on which to base interdisciplinary studies. Biology and
Emotion differs from the majority of books in the field in that it
does not present a specific theory of emotion. The material covered
is therefore more general than is often the case, and has not been
selected to support a particular point of view. It combines an
organised, yet artheoretical, approach with coverage of both animal
and human emotions.
This text looks at the important issues in British politics since
1945, including a brief guide to the changing political culture of
Britain in that period. It should be essential reading for all
students studying politics at A2 level, as it covers all the
important issues required by the main examining boards. Neil
McNaughton begins by reviewing the changing nature of the principal
political ideologies - Conservatism, Labourism and Liberalism -
before discussing how these ideological changes impact generally on
policy developments in the UK. Having described the changing nature
of the political culture, addressing partisan dealignment, changing
morality, the decline of religion and class fragmentation, he
examines on a chapter-by-chapter basis the key issues of British
politics today, the particular problems affecting Northern Ireland,
devolution, constitutional reform, rights, the environment, issues
of gender and sexual orientation, European integration and the
European Union, the impact of the European Union on Britain, ending
with a brief summary of the issues that are likely to take centre
stage in British politics in the first decade of the 21st century.
The text has been written in a accessible style, with helpful
features such as summaries, definitions, tables and boxes to
illuminate the points made.
