Further, since maternal behavior is a defining characteristic of all mammals, the enduring mother-infant bond represents the most basic type of aid-giving social behavior. I will present evidence that the neural circuitry of the maternal brain has provided a foundation upon which natural selection could act in order to create other types of strong prosocial bonds in animals and humans when such enduring bonds have adaptive significance. A unique aspect of this book is the integration and comparison of animal and human research in order to create a complete understanding of the parental brain"--cProvided by publisher.12aParentingxpsychology22aMaternal Behaviorxphysiology22aBrainxphysiology22aBiological Evolution aKCNL 2nlmcGB 00102nlm4070aKCNLbKCNLcPROCd2022-08-31l0oWS 105.5.C3 N635 2020p0000047291r2022-08-31w2022-08-31yGB cnuch c36656d36656
