| Book Description | Theoretical neuroscience provides a quantitative basis for describing what nervous systems do, determining how they function and uncovering the general principles by which they operate. This text introduces the basic mathematical and computational methods of theoretical neuroscience and presents applications in a variety of areas including vision, sensory-motor integration, development, learning, and memory. The book is divided into three parts. Part I discusses the relationship between sensory stimuli and neural responses, focusing on the representation of information by the spiking activity of neurons. Part II discusses the modeling of neurons and neural circuits on the basis of cellular and synaptic biophysics. Part III analyzes the role of plasticity in development and learning. An appendix covers the mathematical methods used, and exercises are available on the book's Web site.ReviewIt will not be surprising if this book becomes the standard text for students and researchers entering theoretical neuroscience for years to come.M. Brandon Westover, Philosophical Psychology Not only does the book set a high standard for theoretical neuroscience, it defines the field.Dmitri Chklovskii, Neuron Review Theoretical Neuroscience marks a milestone in the scientific maturation of integrative neuroscience. In the last decade, computational and mathematical modelling have developed into an integral part of the field, and now we finally have a textbook that reflects the changes in the way our science is being done. It will be a standard source of knowledge for the coming generation of students, both theoretical and experimental. I urge anyone who wants to be part of the development of this science in the next decades to get this book. Read it, and let your students read it.John Hertz, Nordita (Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics), DenmarkAbout the AuthorPeter Dayan is Professor and Director of the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at University College London.Larry Abbott is Professor of Neuroscience and Co-Director of the Center for Theoretical Neuroscience at Columbia University. |
