Sodium Hunger
ISBN: 9780521353687 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In this account, Professor Schulkin uses hunger for sodium as a model system in which to study how the brain produces motivated behavior. He offers a systematic account of the behavior of the sodium hungry animal and explores the endocrinological and physiological mechanisms that maintain sodium balance and then act on the brain to promote the...
