The nervous system—in particular, the brain and its cognitive abilities—is among humans'
most distinctive and impressive attributes. How the nervous system has changed in the …

The brain is expensive, incurring high material and metabolic costs for its size—relative to
the size of the body—and many aspects of brain network organization can be mostly …

Functional significance of delta oscillations is not fully understood. One way to approach this
question would be from an evolutionary perspective. Delta oscillations dominate the EEG of …

Neural ensembles oscillate across a broad range of frequencies and are transiently coupled
or" bound" together when people attend to a stimulus, perceive, think, and act. This is a …

At every moment, the natural world presents animals with two fundamental pragmatic
problems: selection between actions that are currently possible and specification of the …

Intelligence has evolved many times independently among vertebrates. Primates, elephants
and cetaceans are assumed to be more intelligent than 'lower'mammals, the great apes and …

This book presents a unique synthesis of the current neuroscience of cognition by one of the
world's authorities in the field. The guiding principle to this synthesis is the tenet that the …

Comparative studies of the brain in mammals suggest that there are general architectural
principles governing its growth and evolutionary development. We are beginning to …

During the first two years of human life a common neural substrate (roughly Broca's area)
underlies the hierarchical organization of elements in the development of speech as well as …

Our understanding of the evolution, formation, and pathological disruption of human brain
circuits is impeded by a lack of comprehensive data on the developing brain transcriptome …
