Paleoneurology of Amniotes
This book presents a detailed examination of the current state of knowledge in the field of paleoneurology in the main amniote groups (reptiles, birds and mammals), and advances resulting from new non-invasive technologies. The study of fossil endocasts is an area of considerable current interest, and has long been central to our understanding of the evolution of the brain, development of senses and behavioral adaptations in diverse vertebrate groups and across vertebrates as a whole. Recent advances in non-invasive imaging have significantly increased the number of fossil taxa for which brain morphology is known, and it may now be possible to quantitatively analyze the relative size of brain regions. Providing a general overview of current perspectives and problems in evolutionary neuroanatomy, this book is intended for a wide range of readers, including undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, and anyone with a special interest in paleoneurology. It is also useful as supplementary reading for courses in digital anatomy, vertebrate comparative anatomy, computed morphometrics, paleontology, neurology and radiology as well as evolution programs
Does Your Brain Need You? An Introduction to Neuroscience and Consciousness
This book is about the "neuroscience of you" and the mind-body connection. Starting with the evolution of awareness, the book will explain the theory of mind and how it relates to our ability to recognize ourselves in the mirror. In the second part, the book will discuss the philosophy of consciousness and how we could create consciousness with artificial intelligence. Who is this for? What is it about? What will it do for me? This book is for anyone interested in the inner mechanisms that make up "you", your consciousness, your perception of self, and your awareness. While it raises significant philosophic and scientific questions, it is an introductory book and can be read and understood b...

The Tales Teeth Tell
What teeth can tell us about human evolution, development, and behavior. Our teeth have intriguing stories to tell. These sophisticated time machines record growth, diet, and evolutionary history as clearly as tree rings map a redwood's lifespan. Each day of childhood is etched into tooth crowns and roots—capturing birth, nursing history, environmental clues, and illnesses. The study of ancient, fossilized teeth sheds light on how our ancestors grew up, how we evolved, and how prehistoric cultural transitions continue to affect humans today. In The Tales Teeth Tell, biological anthropologist Tanya Smith offers an engaging and surprising look at what teeth tell us about the evolution of pri...
