However, research has shown that this phenomenon is widespread throughout the vertebrate kingdom and found even in some invertebrate species. A similar basic plan of organisation exists across vertebrates. Summarising the evidence and highlighting research from the last twenty years, the authors discuss lateralization from four perspectives - function, evolution, development and causation - covering a wide range of animals, including humans. The evolution of lateralization is traced from our earliest ancestors, through fish and reptiles to birds and mammals. The benefits of having a divided brain are discussed, as well as the influence of experience on its development. A final chapter discusses outstanding problems and areas for further investigation. Experts in this field, the authors present the latest scientific knowledge clearly and engagingly, making this a valuable tool for anyone interested in the biology and behaviour of brain asymmetries"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000887906 650_0 $$aCerebral dominance. 000887906 650_0 $$aBrain$$xDuality. 000887906 650_0 $$aBrain$$xAnatomy. 000887906 7001_ $$aVallortigara, Giorgio,$$d1959- 000887906 7001_ $$aAndrew, Richard John,$$d1932- 000887906 852__ $$bebk 000887906 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1099835$$zOnline Access 000887906 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:887906$$pGLOBAL_SET 000887906 980__ $$aEBOOK 000887906 980__ $$aBIB 000887906 982__ $$aEbook 000887906 983__ $$aOnline
