Opis

This book provides insights into the principles of operation of the cerebral cortex. These principles are key to understanding how we, as humans, function. The book includes Appendices on the operation of many of the neuronal networks described in the book, together with simulation software written in Matlab.

Recenzje

I recommend this book to the neuroscience community for its thorough review and proposed models. It is a comprehensive yet accessible text for anyone seeking to understand the deep mechanics of how we think. I commend Professor Rolls for this and his other excellent contributions to the field.
