The Development of Brain and Behaviour in the Chicken (CABI Publishing)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
As a model organism, the chick has provided valuable insights into broad issues of development in higher animals. The complex interactions between genetic, hormonal and environmental factors which occur in the developing chick provide a potent argument against unitary causal explanations for
differences in behavior. Study of the behavior of the chick is also relevant to poultry science and the welfare of domesticated birds. This book reviews research on the development of brain and behavior in the chick and juxtaposes this with similar work on other avian and, to a lesser extent,
mammalian species. The book provides a thorough review of the subject and will interest workers in animal neurophysiology and behavior, experimental psychologists, and poultry scientists.
