"An Introduction to Hormones and Behavior explores the ways in which hormones modulate
behavior and vice versa. The volume focuses on the key principles of the topic and
features original readings from classic studies, as well as more recent research,
to provide students with a holistic understanding of the interplay of hormones and
behavior. The text begins with a chapter dedicated to endocrine principles and methods,
then advances to discuss sexual differentiation, sex differences, and development.
Later chapters address the distinctive characteristics and differences between male
and female reproduction, as well as male and female parental behaviors. In the closing
chapters, students learn about social behavior, stress, and how hormones influence
human behavior. Each chapter features prewriting exercises, an introduction to provide
context and background information, select readings, and critical thinking questions.
Easy to understand, focused, and written to provide students with a solid foundation
in the topic, An Introduction to Hormones and Behavior is an excellent resource for
undergraduate and graduate courses in hormones and behavior, behavioral endocrinology,
and physiological psychology."--taken from back cover
