The advent of new experimental methods has resulted in a revitalization of study of areas in the cerebral cortex. Cortical Areas: Unity and Diversity brings a modern perspective to the study and explores the correspondence of different methods of mapping areas, the correlation between connectivity and areas, interspecies variations and the developmental origin of areal differences. It also discusses cortical areas in relation to functional evidence, such as similarities in cybernetic function between different sensory areas ...

It also discusses cortical areas in relation to functional evidence, such as similarities in cybernetic function between different sensory areas, and considers morphological substrates for integration between areas before exploring fundamental questions often asked in neurobiology and brain theory.

Seller's Description:
Front exterior hinge torn. Good. 24x16cm, xi, 520 pp., Series: Conceptual Advances in Brain Research, Vol. 5. "The study of areas in the cerebral cortex has a long history, bringing empirical data into close relation with fundamental conceptual issues about the cortex. The subject is currently being revitalized with the advent of new experimental methods and this book brings a modern perspective to the study of these areas. Cortical Areas: Unity and Diversity explores the correspondence of different methods of mapping areas, the correlation between connectivity and areas, interspecies variations and the developmental origin of areal differences. Cortical areas are also discussed in relation to functional evidence, discussing for instance similarities in cybernetic function between different sensory areas. The book also considers morphological substrates for integration between areas before exploring fundamental questions often asked in neurobiology and brain theory"-Publisher's description.
