Description

The cortex continues to be the subject of intense scientfic curiosity, as it has been for the past 30 years. It is the most highly developed part of the brain, yet the youngest in evolutionary terms. It is fundamental to human behaviour, thinking, and self-understanding, and a study of its structure and performance must encompass aspects of anatomy, physiology, psychology, and neurology. This book providees a unique account of the structural and functional organisation of thecerebral cortex from the point of view of one of the pioneers in the field. It is a revised and updated translation of the authors classic German text, and brings together for the first time the biological, psychological, and philosophical strands of enquiry relating to this fascinating area of thebrain. The authors outstanding scientific reputation, combined with a subject of intense interest to researchers, will ensure that this book will be valued both for its scientific and historial contributions.
