Abstract

Brains vary in characters other than size. We should consider whetherFinlay et al.'s argument, that developmental shifts responding toselection for change in one area yield correlated changes across thebrain, must be extended from size differences to other neuralcharacters responsible for the circuitry or physiologicaldifferences distinguishing vertebrate brains.
