Synopsis
Ranging from behavioral to molecular levels of analysis, this informative study presents the results of recent research into the biochemistry and neural mechanisms of imprinting. Horn discusses some of the difficulties that researchers have encountered in analyzing the neural basis of memory and describes ways in which these difficulties have been overcome through the analysis of memories underlying habituation and imprinting. He also considers the biochemical consequences of imprinting and its cerebral localization, and examines the relationships between human and animal memory.

About the Author
Gabriel Horn is at Cambridge University.
Review
"The 12 chapters focus on different experimental approaches taken by Horn and others to elucidate aspects of the neural basis of imprinting behavior. These approaches are logically devised and capably carried out . . . The monograph provides an interesting account of imprinting and is well worth reading." --Trends in Neuroscience
"All in all, this is a fascinating book . . . Horn has managed to bring the work of his group back to life by placing it into the context of thoughtfully conceived speculations and precise models . . . Provides the reader with a glimpse into one of nature's microminiaturizations of the experiential process." --Contemporary Psychology
