Principles of Hormone/Behavior Relations, Second Edition, provides
an introduction to the underlying principles of endocrine
regulation of behavior, a newly emerging area of research within
neurobiology and endocrinology. It addresses the properties of
hormone/behavior relations, including the influence of family
background, timing issues, neuroanatomical features, cellular
mechanisms, and the importance of environmental context and
evolution. This new edition incorporates critical advances in the
field, also including increased coverage of hormonal influences on
food intake, and on the cardiovascular system. The addition of
entirely new principles provides further coverage of epigenetics
and appetite. Thoroughly revised and updated, this book is an ideal
resource for neuroscientists and researchers engaging in this
rapidly expanding field of study.
This text introduces underlying principles of the endocrine
regulation of behavior in animals and humans. Every chapter begins
by stating a principle, followed by specific examples of hormone
actions derived from scientific experiments and clinical
observations, and concludes with a few challenging unanswered
questions. The reference source Hormones, Brain & Behavior
identified this field as rapidly expanding within neurobiology and
endocrinology. Now, this well-illustrated and referenced text will
serve students from undergraduate school to medical school as they
learn this new discipline.
* Uniform presentation of material across all chapter, with each
chapter addressing a key principle, illustrated by basic
experimental and clinical examples
* Includes user-friendly features such as boxed figures with
extended captions and references, numerous clinical notes, and a
comprehensive list of abbreviations
* Illustrations highlight both the clinical and basic science
