The concept underlying this book is the contributions of new genomic i
nformation to review some of understanding neural and behavioral funct ions. In
some cases, these are already recognized as having strong her editary
components, while in others, the contributions of specific gen e products may
soon be discovered. Utilizing the flood of new informa tion derived from the
Human Genome Project and corresponding efforts t o elucidate the mouse genome,
Genetic Influences on Neural and Behavio ral Functions provides a scholarly
catalog, organized logically, of re lations between the expression of specific
genes, nerve cell biology a nd behavior, normal and abnormal, in animals AND
humans.
