- Summary:
- This work focuses on co-evolution of structure and function in the mammalian brain, illustrating how self-emerged oscillatory timing is the brain's fundamental organiser of neuronal information. Extensive supplementary notes make it accessible for the academic general reader but also engaging for neuroscientists.
- Contents:
- Structure defines function
- Diversity of cortical functions is provided by inhibition
- Windows on the brain
- A system of rhythms
- Synchronization by oscillation
- The brain's default state
- Perturbation of the default patterns by experience
- The gamma buzz
- Perceptions and actions are brain state-dependent
- Oscillations in the "other cortex"
- Coupling of systems by oscillations
- Tough problems.
