Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the author's research on responses displayed by planarians when exposed to light. The author establishes criteria for measuring the behavior of these worms in varying degrees of light intensity, including the rate and nature of their locomotion, their orientation, and their tendency toward wandering. The author positions this research within the context of past studies on planarians and their behavior, referring to the work of Dalyell, Duges, Hesse, Parker, Loeb, Voigt, and others. These researchers made significant contributions to our understanding of planarian light responses, but this book takes a comprehensive approach, considering additional variables and refining the experimental methods used to study them. Thematic depth is lent to the work by the author's exploration of the physiological and psychological bases of planarian responses to light. This book will be of great value to anyone interested in the behavior of planarians, the evolution of light responses in animals, or the broader field of animal behavior.
