By David A. Lovejoy

there was an explosion of curiosity within the box of neuroendocrinology during the last 20 years with the invention of neurohormones regulating nearly every little thing from progress and improvement to sexual and competitive habit.

This ebook offers a much-needed advent to neuroendocrinology from a zoological and evolutionary viewpoint. It covers the evolution, improvement and outline of the neuroendocrine approach during the animal kingdom.

Specific issues coated include:

  • The Evolution of early neuroendocrine platforms in primitive animals
  • Structural characterisation, molecular biology and biochemistry of neuroendocrine agents
  • A profiles part on strange points of neuroendocrine body structure written via leaders within the field
  • A precise part at the activities of environmental chemical substances influence neuroendocrine structures in a variety of species
