Nerve Cells and Animal Behaviour

Nerve Cells and Animal Behaviour

Simmons Peter J.; David Young

Cambridge University Press
1999
sidottu
This new edition of Nerve Cells and Animal Behaviour has been updated and expanded by Peter Simmons and David Young in order to take into account more recent advances while still maintaining the accessibility of the book to university students. 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.

pokkari
An extensively revised third edition of this introduction to neuroethology - the neuronal basis of animal behaviour - for zoology, biology and psychology undergraduate students. The book focuses on the roles of individual nerve cells in behaviour, from simple startle responses to complex behaviours such as route learning by rats and singing by crickets and birds. It begins by examining the relationship between brains and behaviour, and showing how study of specialised behaviours reveals neuronal mechanisms that control behaviour. Information processing by nerve cells is introduced using specific examples, and the establishing roles of neurons in behaviour is described for a predator-prey interaction, toads versus cockroaches. New material includes: vision by insects, which describes sensory filtering; hunting by owls and bats, which describes sensory maps; and rhythmical movements including swimming and flying, which describes how sequences of movements are generated. Includes stunning photographs which capture the detail of the behaviour.

The beginning of the story opens a window into the lives of Scots living and working in Edinburgh in the 1600s. It then follows them and others to all points of the compass down three centuries with the most common thread being - Seafaring. It explores little-known impediments like Privateering and Impressment, it chronicles the hazards of Arctic Whaling, timelines the growth of the Scottish Mercantile Trade and benchmarks the strength of the camaraderie that is - life in the Merchant Navy. It explores the vagaries of maritime traditions and superstitions in order to gives a valid picture of the authentic lives of these Youngs and their seafaring community.

A Scottish Family Tale 1650-1950 offers a unique opportunity to voyeur into the lives of three centuries of Scottish seafaring history created by the Young Family. The timeline is significant in the evolution of the British Empire, World Trade and the Youngs. Their seafaring story begins in Edinburgh around 1650 with a humble sailor and travels around the globe and back to New York City and ends with the prestigious position of Chairman of the American Bureau of Shipping.The beginning of the story opens a window into the lives of Scots living and working in Edinburgh in the 1600s.

Climate and Natural Hazard Risks

Climate and Natural Hazard Risks

Climate and Natural Hazard Risks is an in-depth examination of the physical, environmental, economic, and social impacts of climate change and natural hazards on vulnerable populations in different areas around the world. The authors open with the simple question “what is risk?,” taking a detailed look at global trends and risk frameworks as they relate to climate change. From there, the chapters systematically review different hazards and their implications for risk and resilience (hurricanes, cyclones, flooding, extreme temperatures, food insecurity, earthquakes, tsunamis). The authors then delve into the latest research and data surrounding probabilistic hazard assessment and multi-hazard risk assessment. The book closes with a thoughtful discussion on resilience and the wide-reaching impacts of environmental transitions. Professionals working across climate change, environmental risk assessment, and disaster resilience will find much to consider in this thought-provoking text.
