"Very timely and will enable the non-behavioral scientist to make informed decisions on what behavioral tests are needed and with whom they should collaborate."--Nature Neuroscience
"Overall an excellent book. The book succesfully brings together the field of behavioral neuroscience and the rewards and insights that can be gained using this approach. I would reccomend that every behavioral scientist has at least two copies, one for their own use and one that will be on permanent loan to their students, post-doctoral students,and colleagues in molecular biology."--TRENDS in Pharmacological Sciences"This is an excellent and timely book. I have been looking for an appropriate textbook for graduate students who are interested in using genetically engineered mice in various behavioral paradigms, and this is definitely the one to recommend." --Noboru Hiroi, Ph.D., Albert Einstein College of Medicine
