Neuroplasticity, Development, and Steroid Hormone Action
A compilation of cutting-edge research, Neuroplasticity, Development, and Steroid Hormone Action explores the effects of steroid hormones on brain development, function, and aging. The experimental approaches used by the authors ranges from molecular to behavioral and endocrine to neurobiological. It contains scientific photographs, line drawings, tables, color illustrations, and graphs, this interesting and timely text covers the neuroplastic effects of steroid hormones throughout the lifetime of various animal models, such as bees, fish, lizards, turtles, birds, mice, rats, and primates.
Pheromones
This book enables the students, researchers and teachers of crop protection faculty to understand and practice the pheromones of the fauna that have been designated by scientists. This compendium of information includes the following topics amongst others: • A timeline detailing the history of the pheromones • Information on the mentors of pheromone research • Types of signalling in various groups of fauna • Modes of communication among fauna and insects • Alarm signals, attractants, recognition signals, indirect guiding Kinesis, orthokinesis, klinokinesis, etc. • Types of communication among conspecifics • Modes of Communication • The broad categories of the pheromones • P...

The Neuroethology of Birdsong
Vocal signals are central for social communication across a wide range of vertebrate species; consequently, it is critical to understand the mechanisms underlying the learning, control, and evolution of vocal communication. Songbirds are at the forefront of research into such neural mechanisms. Indeed, songbirds provide a particularly important model system for this endeavor because of the many parallels between birdsong and human speech. Specifically, (1) songbirds are one of the few vertebrate species that, like humans, learn their vocal signals during development, (2) the processes of song learning and control in songbirds shares many parallels with the process of speech acquisition in hu...
Übertiere
Über ein Jahrhundert hinweg wurde uns von der Wissenschaft die Vorstellung von Tieren als Reiz-Reaktions-Automaten vermittelt, die unbewusst, instinktgesteuert und ihren Trieben unterworfen durchs Leben laufen, fliegen, schwimmen. Nur ist dies alles einfach nicht wahr. Die moderne Verhaltensforschung hat in wenigen Jahren mit einer Flut an Erkenntnissen über das geistige und seelische Innenleben der anderen Tiere aufgedeckt, dass die sorgfältig konstruierte Grenze zwischen Menschen und allen anderen Tierarten ein Hirngespinst ist. Von der Mücke bis zum Menschenaffen verbindet uns eine gemeinsame Struktur, die uns durch das Leben leitet: die der Gefühle und Gedanken. Dieses Buch bringt dafür eine Fülle an Belegen: Ameisen können zählen, Krabben berechnen Wege und Guppy kann lesen. Hühner führen inhaltliche Gespräche, Mäuse empfinden Mitleid und der Rhesusaffenmann schaut sich gerne Pin-ups an. Wir begegnen Seelenverwandten, in denen wir uns wiedererkennen können. Das Fundament für ein neues Wir-Gefühl.
The Handbook of Speech Production
The Handbook of Speech Production is the first reference work to provide an overview of this burgeoning area of study. Twenty-four chapters written by an international team of authors examine issues in speech planning, motor control, the physical aspects of speech production, and external factors that impact speech production. Contributions bring together behavioral, clinical, computational, developmental, and neuropsychological perspectives on speech production to create a rich and truly interdisciplinary resource Offers a novel and timely contribution to the literature and showcases a broad spectrum of research in speech production, methodological advances, and modeling Coverage of planning, motor control, articulatory coordination, the speech mechanism, and the effect of language on production processes
