Full Description
Appetite Interrupted: The Role of Predators in Shaping the Behavioral Ecology and Physiology of Satiety explores how mechanisms suppress feeding in vertebrates within both physiological and ecological contexts. Highlighting predation's role as a selective pressure, the book identifies novel neuroendocrine pathways through future research. Written by an expert, it systematically examines the behavioral ecology, evolutionary pressures, physiological processes, and stressors affecting foraging and feeding behaviors in vertebrates. The book covers why animals stop eating, selective pressures driving the evolution of hunger suppression mechanisms, and physiological controls inhibiting feeding, including stress, anxiety, and fear.
It concludes with humans' pathways and obesity evolution, offering practical applications for human nutrition.
