Studies of Mind and Brain Neural Principles of Learning, Perception, Development, Cognition, and Motor Control

the mass of experimental data from current research in psychology and physiology, Grossberg proposes and develops a non-linear mathematics as a model for specific functions of mind and brain. He finds the classic approach to the mathematical modelling of mind and brain systematically inadequate. Thi...
