Cortical Areas: Unity and Diversity

Cortical Areas: Unity and Diversity

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
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, and considers morphological substrates for integration between areas before exploring fundamental questions often asked in neurobiology and brain theory.

Max-Planck-Institute for Biological Cybernetics, Tubingen, Germany. Discusses complex topics, including evidence that the cortex can be subdivided into morphologically different areas, the correlation between these areas and patterns of connectivity, and more. Places debates in context of modern evidence.
