Neurowissenschaften - Ein grundlegendes Lehrbuch für Biologie, Medizin und Psychologie (Gebundene Ausgabe)von Mark F. Bear (Autor), Barry W. Connors (Autor), Michael A. Paradiso (Autor), Andreas Engel # Gebundene Ausgabe: 980 Seiten # Verlag: Spektrum Akademischer Verlag; Auflage: 3. Auflage. (November 2008) # Sprache: Deutsch # ISBN-10: 3827420288 # ISBN-13: 978-3827420282 # Originaltitel: Bear et al., Neuroscience 3/e # Grösse und/oder Gewicht: 26,6 x 20 x 4,4 cm Seien es die biologischen Grundlagen, populäre Themen wie der "freie Wille" in der Hirnforschung, neuronale Korrelate religiöser Erfahrungen, die Wirkung von Gerüchen oder das "Gedankenlesen" durch bildgebende Verfahren: Dieses hervorragende Einführungslehrbuch wendet sich nicht nur an Studierende der Medizin, Biologie und Psychologie; es eignet sich dank seiner didaktischen und erzählerischen Qualitäten auch für Interessierte aus anderen Bereichen wie beispielsweise der Ergo- oder Physiotherapie, Pflegerberufen oder der Pädagogik. Den Autoren ist gelungen, womit sich deutsche Lehrbuchautoren oft nach wie vor schwer tun: den Leser verständlich und spannend vom Einstieg in die Grundlagen bis an die vorderste Front der Forschung zu führen. Ohne überflüssigen Ballast vermitteln sie wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse mehr erzählend als erklärend; und sie verwechseln didaktische Genauigkeit nicht mit überbordenden Fussnoten und Zusatzerläuterungen im Kleingedruckten. Besonders gelungen sind in diesem Zusammenhang die "Köpfe und Ideen" genannten Exkurse, in denen berühmte Neurowissenschaftler vorgestellt werden, darunter sechs Deutsche. Exemplarisch sei hier Michael V. L. Bennett erwähnt, der berichtet, wie er in seinem wissenschaftlichen Leben der Frage nach "Suppe" oder "Funken", also chemischer oder elektrischer Informationsübertragung nachging, und der dabei die so genannten "gap junctions" entdeckte. Wer sich mit klassischen Lehrbüchern auskennt und weiss, wie "gottgegeben" die Existenz und Funktionsweise solch komplexer Phänomen in der Regel dargestellt werden, wird diese Art angewandter Wissenschaftshistorie zu schätzen wissen. Diese Geschichten hinter den Forschungsergebnissen vermitteln etwas von dem Durchhaltevermögen, dem Wissensdurst und der Leidenschaft der Spitzenwissenschaftler - und deren feinem Sinn für Humor. Diese Qualitäten finden sich denn auch in diesem hervorragenden Lehrbuch wieder. Kurzbeschreibung In den USA zählt diese didaktisch durchdachte, verständlich geschriebene und hervorragend illustrierte Einführung seit Jahren zu den führenden Lehrbüchern im Bereich der Neurowissenschaften. Mit der Übersetzung liegt nun auch im deutschen Sprachraum ein modernes Grundlagenwerk zur Hirnforschung vor, das sich an Studierende der Biologie, der Medizin und der Psychologie gleichermassen richtet. Der Bogen spannt sich von der Anatomie des Gehirns bis zur Sinnesphysiologie, von der Entwicklungsbiologie bis zum Verhalten, von den Störungen des Nervensystems bis zur Kognitionswissenschaft, von den molekularen Mechanismen bis zu den neuen bildgebenden Verfahren. Ein eigenständiger illustrierter "Führer zur menschlichen Neuranatomie" erlaubt dem Lernenden, sein Wissen der Hirnstrukturen zu überprüfen und zu erweitern. Jedes Kapitel endet mit Verständnisfragen und Übungsaufgaben. In spannenden Exkursen berichten führende Wissenschaftler, wie sie zu ihren wichtigen Entdeckungen kamen. Der perfekte Einstieg in die Neurowissenschaften! ISBN/ISSN 3827420288. Gewicht/weight: 900 gr.

Evolution Of The Insects.

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge: 2005. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Insects are the most diverse group of organisms in the 3 billion-year history of life on Earth, and the most ecologically dominant animals on land. This book chronicles for the first time the complete evolutionary history of insects: their living diversity, relationships and 400 million years of fossils. Whereas other volumes have focused on either living species or fossils, this is the first comprehensive synthesis of all aspects of insect evolution. The book is illustrated with 955 photo- and electronmicrographs, drawings, diagrams, and field photos, many in full colour and virtually all of them original. The book will appeal to anyone engaged with insect diversity: professional entomologists and students, insect and fossil collectors, and naturalists. The contents of this book is as follows: Section 1. Diversity and Evolution: Introduction; Species: their nature and number; How many species of insects?; Reconstructing evolutionary history; Section 2. Fossil Insects: Insect fossilization; Dating and ages; Major fossil Insect deposits; Section 3. Arthropods and the Origin of Insects: Onychophora: the velvet-worms; Tardigrada: the water-bears; Arthropoda: the jointed animals; Hexapoda: the six-legged arthropods; Section 4. The insects: Morphology of insects; Relationships among the insect orders; Section 5. Earliest insects: Archaeognatha: the bristletails; Zygentoma: the silverfish;  Rhyniognatha; Section 6. Insects Take to the Skies: Pterygota, Wings, and flight; Ephemeroptera: the mayflies;  Palaeodictyopterida: extinct beaked insects; Odonatoptera: dragonflies and early relatives; Neoptera; Section 7. The Polyneopterous Orders: Plecopterida; Orthopterida; Plecoptera: the stoneflies; Embiodea: the webspinners; Zoraptera: the Zorapterans; Orthoptera: the grasshoppers, crickets, and kin; Phasmatodea: the stick- and leaf insects;  Titanoptera: the titanic crawlers;  Caloneurodea: the Caloneurodeans; Dermaptera: the earwigs; Grylloblattodea: the ice crawlers; Mantophasmatodea: the African rock crawlers; Dictyoptera; Blattodea: the roaches; Citizen roach: the termites; Mantodea: the mantises; Section 8. The Paraneopteran Orders: Psocoptera: the 'bark'lice; Phthiraptera: the true lice; Fringe wings: Thysanoptera (thrips); The sucking bugs: Hemiptera; Section 9. The Holometabola: problematic fossil orders; The origins of complete metamorphosis; On wings of lace: Neuropterida; Section 10. Coleoptera: early fossils and overview of past diversity; Archostemata; Adephaga; Myxophaga; Polyphaga; Strepsiptera: the enigmatic order; Section 11. Hymenoptera: Ants, Bees, and Other Wasps: The Euhymenoptera and parasitism; Aculeata; Evolution of insect sociality; Section 12. Antliophora: Scorpionflies, Flies, and Fleas: Mecopterida: mecopterans and relatives; Siphonaptera: the fleas; Evolution of ectoparasites and blood-feeders; Diptera: the true flies; Section 13. Amphiesmenoptera: The Caddisflies and Lepidoptera: Trichoptera: the caddisflies; Lepidoptera: the moths and butterflies; Section 14. Insects Become Modern: Cretaceous and Tertiary Periods: The Cretaceous; flowering of the world: the Angiosperm Radiations; Plant sex and insects: insect pollination; Radiations of Phytophagous insects; Austral arthropods: remnants of Gondwana?; Insects, mass extinctions, and the K/T boundary; The tertiary; Mammalian radiations; Pleistocene dispersal and species lifespans; Island faunas; Section 15. Epilogue: Why so many insect species?; The future; Glossary; References; Index. Reviews. A landmark contribution, not just to entomology and evolutionary biology, but to the life sciences as a whole. Beautifully conceived, splendidly written, and exquisitely illustrated É Bound to remain a primary scientific reference for years to come. A must for naturalists, young and old. Truly a definitive work. Thomas Eisner, Cornell University.

¶ This book chronicles the complete evolutionary history of insects--their living diversity and relationships as well as 400 million years of fossils.Introductory sections cover the living species diversity of insects, methods of reconstructing evolutionary relationships, basic insect structure, and the diverse modes of insect fossilization and major fossil deposits. Major sections then explore the relationships and evolution of each order of hexapods. The volume also chronicles major episodes in the evolutionary history of insects from their modest beginnings in the Devonian and the origin of wings hundreds of millions of years before pterosaurs and birds to the impact of mass extinctions and the explosive radiation of angiosperms on insects, and how they evolved into the most complex societies in nature. Whereas other volumes focus on either living species or fossils, this is the first comprehensive synthesis of all aspects of insect evolution. Illustrated with 955 photo- and electron- micrographs, drawings, diagrams, and field photos, many in full color and virtually all of them original, this reference will appeal to anyone engaged with insect diversity--professional entomologists and students, insect and fossil collectors, and naturalists..." - Publisher's description.
