Synopsis

This monograph captures the current excitement in invertebrate neurobiology, from the manipulation of activity in specified neurons to the investigation of behavior. The monograph emphasizes the evolutionary aspects of neurobiology and work on non-model species. The chapters, from internationally respected contributors, incorporate trenchant findings but also identify important outstanding questions. The volume will inspire graduate students and postdocs, and provide a good starting point for any scientist who wants to learn about this resurgent field. Contents: 1. Searching for Insight: Using Invertebrate Nervous Systems to Illuminate Fundamental Principles in Neuroscience (E. Marder); Emerging Techniques: 2. Circuit-Breaking and Behavioral Analysis by Molecular Genetic Manipulation of Neural Activity in Drosophila (T. Holmes, V. Sheeba, D. Mizrak, B. Rubovszky, and D. Dahdal); 3. Electrophysiology and Optophysiology of Complex Brain Functions in Insects (R. Menzel); Sensory Systems: 4. Olfactory/Gustatory Processing (L.B. Vosshall); 5. Optic Flow Processing in the Cockpit of the Fly (A. Borst and J. Haag); 6. Ommatidial Adaptations for Spatial, Spectral and Polarisation Vision in Arthropods (E. Warrant, A. Kelber and R. Frederiksen); 7. Auditory Systems (D. Robert and R. Hoy); 8. Mechanosensory Regulation of Invertebrate Motor Systems (D.M. Blitz and M.P. Nusbaum); Motor Systems: 9. The Neuromechanics of Fly Flight Control (M.A. Frye); 10. Insect Walking: From Reduced Preparations to Natural Terrain (R.E. Rizmann and A. Bueschges); 11. Invertebrate Central Pattern Generators (P.S. Katz and S.L. Hooper); Learning And Memory: 12. Invertebrate Cognition: Non-elemental Learning Beyond Simple Conditioning (M. Giurfa); 13. Memories of Worms and Flies: From Gene to Behavior (C. Rankin and J. Dubnau); 14. New Insights into the Neurobiology of Invertebrate Learning and Memory: Importance of Postsynaptic Mechanisms and Retrograde Signals (D.L. Glanzman); Behavior And Neuroethology Models: 15. Going Wild: Towards an Ecology of Visual Information Processing (J. Zeil, N. Boeddeker, J.M. Hemmi, and W. Stuerzl); 16. Courtship Behavior and Pheromonal Communication in Drosophila (J-F. Ferveur); 17. Foraging in Flies and Worms (M. de Bono and M.B. Sokolowski); 18. Spatial Aspects of Foraging in Ants and Bees (M. Collett and T.S. Collett); 19. Circadian Rhythms and Sleep (A. Sehgal and R. Allada); 20. Behavioral Choice: A Comparative Approach (W. Kristan and R. Gillette); 21. Neuroendocrinology of Eclosion (J. Ewer); Evolution: 22. Evolution of Excitability in Lower Metazoans (R.W. Meech and G.O. Mackie); 23. Evolution of Behavioral Genes (R. Costa, F. Sandrelli, and C.P. Kyriacou) Afterword; Universality and Brain Mechanisms (R.J. Greenspan). Related Products: An Introduction to Nervous Systems.

Revue de presse

[T]he book will be a useful source of information for researchers, as well as for teachers in preparing advanced level lectures. I recommend that every Neuroscientist ensures they have access to it. --The Journal of Experimental Biology
