About the Author

Michael Arbib has played a leading role at the interface of neuroscience and computer science ever since his first book, Brains, Machines, and Mathematics. From Neuron to Cognition provides a worthy pedagogical sequel to his widely acclaimed Handbook of Brain Theory and Neural Networks. After thirty years at University of Southern California he is now pursuing interests in "how the brain got language" and "neuroscience for architecture" in San Diego.

Peter Erdi is Henry R. Luce Professor of Complex Systems Studies at the Center for Complex Systems Studies, Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo, MI.
