Produktbeschreibung

Factors Affecting Neurodevelopment: Genetics, Neurology, Behavior, and Diet is a comprehensive reference on the genetic and behavioral features associated with proper and abnormal development. The book discusses the mechanisms underlying neurological development and provides readers with a detailed introduction to the neural connections and complexities in biological circuitries, as well as the physiological, behavioral, molecular, and cellular features of neurodevelopment. In addition, the book examines in vitro and in vivo modeling of development with stem cells and model systems. - Provides the most comprehensive coverage of a broad range of topics relating to the neuroscience of development - Features sections on the genetics of developmental conditions and accompanying behavior - Contains an abstract, key facts, mini dictionary of terms, and summary points to aid in understanding in each chapter - Focuses on neurodevelopmental disorders and environmental factors that influence neural development - Includes more than 500 illustrations and tables
