Description for Behavioral Genetics of the Mouse: Volume 1, Genetics of Behavioral Phenotypes
hardcover.
The first volume in the new Cambridge Handbooks in Behavioral Genetics series, Behavioral Genetics of the Mouse provides baseline information on normal behaviors, essential in both the design of experiments using genetically modified or pharmacologically treated animals and in the interpretation and analyses of the results obtained. The book offers a comprehensive overview of the genetics of naturally occurring variation in mouse behavior, from perception and spontaneous behaviors such as exploration, aggression, social interactions and motor behaviors, to reinforced behaviors such as the different types of learning. Also included are numerous examples of potential experimental problems, which will aid and ... Read more

Reviews for Behavioral Genetics of the Mouse: Volume 1, Genetics of Behavioral Phenotypes
'This first volume is a much-needed reference text on the behavioral genetics of the mouse. I am looking forward to the subsequent volumes and expect that together they will provide a panoramic view of the field. Such a series of manuals will be invaluable to students, scientists, and scholars aiming to master the 'beauties' of mouse behavior.' Silvia Mandillo, Genes, ... Read more
