“…Based on recent infancy research and the mirror neurons discovery, studies of early speech perception, comparative primate studies and computer simulations of language evolution, this book offers replies to questions as: When and how may spoken language have emerged? …”

“…This issue will bring together papers revealing the development, structure, and physiology of neuronal circuits involved in sensory perception, sleep and wakefulness, behavioral selection, and motor command generation in a range of species from the nematode to the primate…”

“…Participants in this workshop, which took place on January 17, 2020, considered whether embryo model systems - especially those that use nonhuman primate cells - can be used to predict the function of systems made with human cells. …”

“…Professor Campbell examines the birth of addiction science---the National Academy of Sciences's project to find a pharmacological fix for narcotics addiction in the late 1930s---and then explores the human and primate experimentation involved in the succeeding studies of the "opium problem," revealing how addiction science became "brain science" by the 1990s…”

“…Während Merkl der Rechtswissenschaft das Primat zuschrieb, beharrte Sander auf dem Primat des Rechtsverfahrens bzw. der Rechtspraxis. …”

“…It is concerned with the social problems and stresses hominid and primate ancestors encountered, the psychological mechanisms natural selection shaped to deal with these stresses, and the way those ancient mechanisms work now. …”

“…In Auseinandersetzung mit der Debatte über Petrus und Paulus in Rom und dem daraus abgeleiteten Primat der römischen Kirche werden die Thesen des Petrusbuchs UaLG 96 (2009, 22010) verteidigt und durch neue Beweise gesichert. …”

“…In Part I, the treatment of visual physiology has been extensively revised with an updated account of retinal processing, a new section explaining the principles of spatial and temporal filtering which underlie discussions in later chapters, and an up-to-date account of the primate visual pathway.Part II contains four largely new chapters which cover recent psychophysical evidence and computational model of early visi…”

“…Sin embargo, por mucho que pretenda ignorar la herencia genética de su pasado evolutivo, el ser humano sigue siendo un primate. Las audaces especulaciones de este estudio han provocado controversias entre antropólogos y psicólogos, pero invariablemente cautivan al lector corriente, ofreciéndole un nuevo método de sí mismo…”

“…., la question renvoie d’abord au débat bien connu sur la thèse, classiquement rapportée à Fichte, d’un primat du pratique : lorsque Fichte affirme que « tout est issu de l’agir et de l’agir du moi », revendique-t-il simplement le primat de la loi morale sur la raison théorique ? …”

“…The focus is on the psychological characteristics that distinguish us from other primate species. At a neuronal level, we are just another mammalian species, but the functional specialization of the human cerebral hemispheres has resulted in three outstanding, uniquely-human talents: language, tool-usage and music. …”
