Opis

Researchers from a number of disciplines attended the September 1999 conference Neuromagnetism at the Millennium in New York to discuss the current understanding of neuromagnetic fields, discovered outside human skills about 25 years ago, but still little used either in basic or clinical investigati

Recenzje

"An invaluable resource on one of the most exciting new technologies for understanding the human mind and brain."
—Steven Pinker
Peter de Florez Professor, MIT; author, How the Mind Works and The Blank Slate

"This volume is essential for both experts and those just learning about magnetic source imaging of the brain. Everything from the exciting history of the recent technology of such imaging, as an example of applying recent physics to neuroscience, to current clinical applications is covered. Given the wide topical coverage of the articles in the volume, it should go far toward gaining the well-deserved greater recognition magnetic source imaging should have among both neuroscientists and clinicians."
