This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the neural foundations of behaviour, cognition, and communication across diverse animal species. Bridging molecular mechanisms with complex social dynamics, this volume traverses key themes in modern neuroscience, from synaptic transmission and sensory integration to neuroplasticity, cognitive function, pain perception, and social neurobiology. Each chapter blends foundational theory with cutting-edge research, drawing upon insights from comparative studies in rodents, primates, birds, and other model organisms. Special attention is given to the neural circuits underlying social behaviour, stress, and interbrain synchrony, positioning the animal brain as both a subject of scientific inquiry and a window into human neuropsychiatric disorders. Through its integrative and interdisciplinary approach, the book underscores the relevance of animal neuroscience to translational medicine, ethical discourse, and the global Sustainable Development Goals.

Designed for students, researchers, and professionals in neuroscience, veterinary science, and behavioural biology, this book provides both conceptual depth and practical insight. It is a timely contribution to the understanding of how brains think, adapt, and connect across individuals, species, and contexts.
