elib.tech Exclusive… sharing elsewhere will result in a bann!Sporns emphasizes how networks connect levels of organization in the brain and how they link structure to function.Quote:”Written engagingly by a master at the top of his game, Sporns’s book unites neural structure, function, connectivity, and dynamics into a single, quantitative, and coherent framework — brain network science that goes a long way toward understanding the dynamic patterns of the brain that underlie behavior and cognition. Essential for the transdisciplinary neuroscientist of the future.”Quote:”This excellent book instills a sense of excitement about understanding the brain in terms of network theory. Despite the fact it does not contain a single equation, one comes away from Sporns’s book with a sense of insight and perspective rarely attained by treatments of this sort. In short, this is a resource of conceptual treasures for anyone interested in a modern understanding of the brain.Quote:”Sporns’s book is a very important and scholarly contribution to our understanding of brain function. It offers a view of neuroscience that is breathtakingly broad and provides just the sort of perspective needed if we are to integrate knowledge of form cells, social groups, and everything in between. It lays out the evidence for a real paradigm shift in how we must pursue our understanding of the brain’s workings.”
