The papers cover the asymmetry of brain mechanisms and behaviour in a wide range of both vertebrate and invertebrate species. Each paper focuses on one of the following topics: the link between population-level lateralization and social behaviour; the processes in the avian brain that permit one brain hemisphere to take control of behaviour; lateralized attention to predators and the common pattern of lateralization in vertebrate species; visual and auditory lateralization; influences that alter the development of lateralization—specifically, the effect of temperature on the development of lateralization in sharks; and the importance of understanding lateralization when considering both the training and welfare of dogs. Collectively, these studies address questions of why different species have asymmetry of brain and behaviour, how it develops, and how this is dealt with by these different species. The papers report on the lateralization of different types of behaviour, each going beyond merely reporting the presence of asymmetry and shedding light on its function and on the mechanisms involved in its expression.spider monkeyzebra finchstarlingsfrequency-dependent selectionmonocular viewingwelfareclimate changesongdevelopmentsocial behaviorsocial interactionsphysiologypredator inspectionscale-eatervisionreaction timecross-predationauditory perceptiondogeye preferencebrain asymmetryasymmetry of brain functionpaw preferencesongbirdsshelterhemisphere differenceshemispheric interactionspopulation-levelbirdscolor discriminationlateralitygeneral pattern of lateralisationlateralised behaviourindividual-levellateral dimorphismtemperaturesocial interactionbehaviorESSsocial networksevolutionCampbell’s monkeyshemispheric specialisationlateralizationelasmobranchsPerissodusattentionriskRogers B.Sc.(Hons), D.Phil., D.Sc., FAA, Lesleyauth1302959BOOK9910367738003321Left Versus Right Asymmetries of Brain and Behaviour3026773UNINA
