The book integrates data on visuomotor coordination in frog and toad - and comparative sudies of salamander, bird, rep- tile, turtle, rat, gerbil, rabbit, and monkey - with the ex- position of a set of models, Rana computatrix, with broad implications for neuroethology and the design of neural net- works. The study provides insight int organizational prin- ciples for the brain which are to be sought not solely in terms ofcellular mechanisms but also in terms of neural layers and modules functional constructs called schemas, and computational strategies.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume integrates theory and experiment to place the study of vision within the context of the action systems which use visual information. This theme is developed by stressing: (a) The importance of situating anyone part of the brain in the context of its interactions with other parts of the brain in subserving animal behavior. The title of this volume emphasizes that visual function is to be be viewed in the context of the integrated functions of the organism. (b) Both the intrinsic interest of frog and toad as animals in which to study the neural mechanisms of visuomotor coordination, and the importance of comparative studies with other organisms so that we may learn from an analysis of both similarities and differences. The present volume thus supplements our studies of frog and toad with papers on salamander, bird and reptile, turtle, rat, gerbil, rabbit, and monkey. (c) Perhaps most distinctively, the interaction between theory and experiment. Codice articolo 9783540542414
