Evolution of Nervous Systems and Cognitive Function

The Evolution of Nervous Systems and Cognitive Function highlights factors of neuronal evolution and neurobiology on the changing planet including the reconstruction of the evolution of basal and advanced cognitive functions. The volume explains the principles of synthetic neurobiology, artificial intelligence-based interfaces, and prospects of newly emerging fields at the intersection of evolution and environment. This includes coverage on the evolutionary bases of neuroplasticity and neurological disorders. As a result, this book enables the reader to understand the fundamental biological bases of synthetic and future neuroscience fields such as neurotransplantations, neurobots and hybrid brains.
