Comparative Psychology: Evolution and Development of Brain and Behavior, 3rd Edition
Autor Mauricio Papinien Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 oct 2020
Papini ensures thorough coverage of topics like the fundamentals of neural function, the cognitive and associative capacities of animals, the development of the central nervous system and behavior, and the fossil record of animals including human ancestors. This text includes many examples drawn from the study of human behavior, highlighting general and basic principles that apply broadly to the animal kingdom. New topics introduced in this edition include genetics, epigenetics, neurobiological, and cognitive advances made in recent years into this evolutionary-developmental framework.
An essential textbook for upper level undergraduate and graduate courses in comparative psychology, animal behavior, and evolutionary psychology, developmental psychology, neuroscience and behavioral biology.

Notă biografică
Mauricio R. Papini is Professor of Psychology at Texas Christian University, USA. His work has centered on brain-behavior relationships in the area of incentive learning, but broader interests in the evolution and development of behavior led to the creation of this book.
Descriere
This revised third edition provides an up to date, comprehensive overview of the field of comparative psychology, integrating both evolutionary and developmental studies of brain and behavior. This book provides a unique combination of areas normally covered independently to satisfy the requirements of comparative psychology courses.
