Macromolecules and behavior.

Description:

This is the first book published by Appleton-Century-Crofts that deals specifically with the biological and physical bases of psychology. Molecular biological developments have been rapid in recent years. These developments have influenced the thinking of numerous behavioral scientists. This volume contains papers by a distinguished group of authors which indicate the current research and ideas in an area in which the editor calls molecular psychobiology that spans from molecular biological sciences to the behavioral disciplines. Paying particular attention to the nucleic acids DNA and RNA, as well as other macromolecules, this distinguished international group of researchers review and discuss in detail the experimental work of many scientists that have led to new hypotheses of learning and memory (including abnormal behavior and mental disease).
