Large-Scale Neuronal Theories of the Brain brings together thirteen originalcontributions by some of the top scientists working in neuroscience today. It presents models andtheories that will most likely shape and influence the way we think about the brain, the mind, andinteractions between the two in the years to come. Chapters consider global theories of the brainfrom the bottom up -- providing theories that are based on real nerve cells, their firingproperties, and their anatomical connections. This contrasts with attempts that have been made bypsychologists and by theorists in the artificial intelligence community to understand the brainstrictly from a psychological or computational point of view.The authors encompass a broadbackground, from biophysics and electrophysiology to psychophysics, neurology, and computationalvision. However, all the chapters focus on a common issue: the role of the primate (including human)cerebral cortex in memory, visual perception, focal attention, and awareness.Contributors : HoraceBarlow.
