Suitable for students, and a variety of experts who are interested in keeping track of the discoveries that are emerging about the evolution of the brain and cognition, this title provides a synthetic source of information about research that has important implications for the evolution of the brain and cognition in primates, including humans.
Section I. Introduction 1. From tetrapods to primates: conserved developmental mechanisms in diverging ecological adaptations F. Aboitiz and J.F. Montiel (Santiago, Chile) Section II. Genes and Development 2. Genetic correlates of the evolving primate brain E.J. Vallender (Southborough, MA, USA) 3. Cerebral cortical development in rodents and primates Z. Molnar and G. Clowry (Oxford, UK) 4. Embracing covariation in brain evolution: large brains, extended development and flexible primate social systems C.J. Charvet and B.L. Finlay (Ithaca, NY, USA) Section III. Comparative Neuroanatomy 5. The evolution of neocortex in primates J.H. Kaas (Nashville, TN, USA) 6. Lateralization of the human brain M.C. Corballis (Auckland, New Zealand) 7.
