This comprehensive volume showcases the contributions of both emerging early-career scientists and renowned experts in the field. The study encompasses a wide range of animal species, encompassing invertebrates such as insects, worms, sea hares, fish, amphibians, birds, rodents, bears, and human and nonhuman primates. Contributors examine how evolutionary pressures have shaped the behavioral, cognitive, and neural mechanisms underlying learning and memory. They also explore the interconnectedness between learning and memory and the specific selective factors that have driven their evolution. The Evolution of Learning and Memory Mechanisms serves as an invaluable resource for researchers and scholars engaged in experimental and comparative psychology, comparative cognition, brain–behavior evolution, and animal behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108738316\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095010603258,"sku":"9781108738316","price":29.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1653049923160_book.jpg?v=1653114480","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/evolution-of-learning-and-memory-mechanisms-9781108738316","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
