Principles of Behavioral Genetics (Introduction edition) (Refined edition) (Chinese Edition)

Do the genes determine behavior? If the answer is yes, then how do the genes decide the behavior? What extent our behavior is subject to the ""nature"" to, and what extent its subject to the ""parenting""? How does the behavior evolve? Two top scholars in the field of behavioral genetics, Robert R.H. Anholt and Trudy F.C.Mackay, will give the answer in this book. This book integrates the classical and modern genetics principle and the neural-biology and ecology, comprehensively discusses the relationship between the genetics, brain and behavior, and instructs the readers to search and position various genetics that impact the behavior, and to coordinate the expression of them, so that the neural reaction can express complex behavior and thus to adapt to the environmental change. The instruction chapters expounds the neural basic process and basic principle of complicated heredity, while the individual chapters describes the social interaction, smell and taste, learning and memory, night and day, behavior, sports and sleep, addiction behavior, etc.It covers rich examples from traditional model organisms, abiotic model system, to human biology.This book is suitable for the senior undergraduates, postgraduates and scientific researchers in the fields of genetics, neural science and ecology.
