Comparative vertebrate lateralization /
This is the first book to take a comparative approach to brain lateralization. It examines lower vertebrates, birds, nonprimate mammals, and primates, including humans, highlighting model systems that elucidate the function, causes, development, and evolution of lateralization. Topics include the ev...
