The second edition of "An Introduction to Behavioural Endocrinology" retains all the features of the first, and provides an updated, integrated presentation of the study of hormone-behaviour interaction. Emphasizing a comparative approach, the text explores the endocrine mechanisms that have evolved in both human and non-human animals to solve common problems in survival and reproduction. It also features a new chapter on stress and, while increasing its coverage of molecular and cellular approaches, it retains its accessiblity for non-biology students.

Now in full colour! The text also contains increased coverage of molecular and cellular approaches, but still strives for accessibility for non-biological science students
