NEW FROM SINAUER ASSOCIATES FOUNDATIONS OF NEURAL DEVELOPMENT S. Marc Breedlove ABOUT THE BOOK Foundations of Neural Development is a textbook written in a conversational style with topics appropriate for an undergraduate audience. Each chapter begins with a thought-provoking vignette, or a “real-life story,” that the subsequent material illuminates. The “Researchers at Work” feature, available in every chapter, describes a classic study in detail, taking the reader through the hypothesis, test, result, and conclusion of an experiment. A marginal glossary, review questions, and bulleted summary are a few of the other features in the book. Despite the reader-friendly features, the book is comprehensive in scope. Chapters 1–7 unfold in the order of ontogeny, covering induction, the establishment of a body plan, neural migration, differentiation, axonal pathfinding, synapse formation, and apoptosis. Chapters 8–10 address activity-guided, experience-guided, and socially guided neural development—mechanisms that were crucial for the evolution of the human brain. Lively and engaging, with the finest illustrations, Foundations of Neural Development is the perfect book to help any undergraduate student understand how a single microscopic cell, a human zygote, can develop into the most complex machine on earth, the brain. ABOUT THE AUTHOR S. Marc Breedlove, the Barnett Rosenberg Professor of Neuroscience at Michigan State University, has written over 130 scientific articles investigating the role of hormones in shaping the developing and adult nervous system, publishing in journals including Science, Nature, Nature Neuroscience, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. He is also passionate about teaching—in the classroom, and in the greater community through interviews with the Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, and Newsweek, as well as broadcast programs such as All Things Considered, Good Morning America, and Sixty Minutes. He has active grant support from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and the National Institute of Mental Health. Dr. Breedlove is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Association for Psychological Science. February 2017 • 380 pages (est.) • 300 illustrations (est.)

Altschuler This book examines prominent individuals from great literature, mostly protagonists and a few bit players, their apparent mental disorder or disease, how those disorders and diseases meet the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-5) diagnostic criteria, and how the authors of these stories could possibly have had enough insight and knowledge to create characters who were so clearly suffering from mental illness hundreds of years before these illnesses were even classified or defined.
