This book provides students and researchers with reviews of biological questions related to the evolution of feeding by vertebrates in aquatic and terrestrial environments. Based on recent technical developments and novel conceptual approaches, the book covers functional questions on trophic behavior in nearly all vertebrate groups including jawless fishes. The book describes mechanisms and theories for understanding the relationships between feeding structure and feeding behavior. Finally, the book demonstrates the importance of adopting an integrative approach to the trophic system in order to understand evolutionary mechanisms across the biodiversity of vertebrates.

Feeding in Vertebrates

Fundamentals of Human Neuropsychology continues to keep pace with its dynamic field, just as it has done throughout its nearly four decades of publication. As they have done since the first edition, the authors draw on recent research and their own clinical and lab experience to guide their development of the content, and on their experience in the classroom to help hone the presentation in a way that is both accessible and engaging to students. Coverage includes recent developments in network analysis, neural imaging, and genetic research--particularly in terms of the impact on our understanding and assessment of brain injury and disorders.

Loose-leaf Version for Fundamentals of Human Neuropsychology

La neuropsicologa es el puente entre la psicologa y la neurociencia y su estudio, por lo tanto, debe incluir una extensa revisin de la anatoma y la fisiologa, as como la psicologa cognitiva, experimental y clnica. Neuropsicologa Humana, 5 edicin, se ha dividido en partes siguiendo esta filosofa. La parte I proporciona la informacin bsica necesaria para quienes se inician en el estudio del cerebro. Las siguientes partes consideran las relaciones entre cerebro y conducta concentrndose primero en la organizacin general de los hemisferios cerebrales (Parte II) y la anatoma (parte III) y luego en las funciones psicolgicas (Parte IV). Finalmente la parte V explica los trastornos neurolgicos y su rehabilitacin.
