Perspectives in Neural Systems and Behavior (MBL Lectures in Biology)

Comprises reports from the Woods Hole Marine Biological Laboratory on recent investigations into the relationships between neural circuits and behavior. These concise, provocative essays recount results of laboratory and field research on the cellular basis of behavior, motor control, pattern recognition, mechanisms of learning and memory, sensory processing (especially in the visual system), sexual dimorphism, and development. Also discusses the results of field studies of natural behavior.
