The book introduces the reader to the way in which nervous systems of animals control behaviour without assuming any prior knowledge of neurophysiology. Using a carefully selected series of behaviour patterns students are taken from an elementary-level introduction to a point where sufficient detail has been assimilated to allow a satisfying insight into current research on how nervous systems control and generate behaviour. Only examples where it has been possible to establish a clear link between the activity of particular nerve cells and a pattern of behaviour have been used. This book is essential reading for students of zoology, psychology and physiology and serves as a clear introduction to neuroethology.Nerve Cells & Animal BehaviourNeurobiologyNeuronsAnimal behaviorNeurophysiologyNeurobiology.Neurons.Animal behavior.Neurophysiology.573.8/6Young David1942 February 25-121339Simmons Peter J(Peter John),1952-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910454802103321Nerve cells and animal behaviour2480440UNINA
