Recenzje

This ambitious book addresses the complex subject of intelligence. It is an account by a leader on the frontiers of neuroscience and psychology that is crackling with ideas and presented within a new framework of the critical role of intelligence in evolution. The author is engaged in the most up-to-date studies on the broad topic of decision neuroscience. His narrative shows amazing mastery of the essential topics, across a wide range of fields, including psychology, neuroscience, mathematics, probability theory, economic theory, evolution, philosophy, and artificial intelligence. These are all knitted together by a logical sequence of chapters and an engaging narrative style to give new insights into the neural basis of intelligence."
