Klappentext zu „Molecular Mechanisms Influencing Aggressive Behaviours “
The experimental analysis of aggression has been of interest to scientists for a long time and there have been many interdisciplinary studies of aggression in both animals and humans. However, during the past five years or so, the application of new molecular genetic techniques has enabled us to explore mechanisms of aggression in ways that were not previously possible, yielding new information and insights.This book features leading scientists from a broad spectrum of disciplines describing and discussing recent data on aggression in laboratory animals. Particular emphasis is placed on possible implications for understanding human aggression. Chapters cover the major current experimental issues in the study of aggression in humans and animals: sex differences in aggression and related hormonal effects; specific genes for neurotransmitters, neuropeptides and nitric oxide; and finally aggression in primates, both human and animal. The discussions published here deal with the specific problems of interpretation at the molecular level and also with general issues relating to our understanding of human and animal aggression.
This important book provides a comprehensive account of our current understanding of the underlying biology of aggression in humans and animals. It should prove invaluable to researchers in various branches of both neuroscience and psychology.
