An Introduction to Behavioral Endocrinology
Editorial Reviews
-Diana K. Hews, The Quarterly Review of Biology
" . . . this edition updates a book that nicely fills an empty niche."
Book Description
Building on the strengths of the First Edition-its comparative approach, historical perspective, and sound pedagogy-the author has incorporated much new material. Notably, there is increased coverage of molecular and cellular approaches, a new chapter on stress, and a revised chapter that addresses affiliation as well as aggression. Moreover, Dr. Nelson includes recent discoveries such as the roles of leptin and orexin in ingestive behavior, and emphasizes the use of transgenic mouse models in understanding hormone-behavior interactions. Still, the text retains its accessibility for majors and non-majors alike.
An Introduction to Behavioral Endocrinology is appropriate for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in psychology, biology, or zoology.
