Comparative Primate Biology: Neurosciences

by Horst D. Steklis (Editor), J. Erwin (Editor)

This advanced reference volume addresses the need for careful evaluation of appropriateness and selection of primate species for particular neurobiological research programs. It is intended to aid in the first step of this evaluation process by providing state of the art reviews of several aspects of primate brain morphology and functioning. It focuses on sensory and motor neurobiology and central structure and processes but also offers insights into primate evolution.
