Understanding the Nervous System: An Engineering Perspective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780879422967)

Providing a fascinating alternative to the unwieldy life science sources, this book describes how the nervous system (including the brain) communicates with, sends signals to, and receives input from the sensory organs. Starting with the basic principles, the authors unfold the mystery of this communication with simple, elegant models to enhance your understanding of how the nervous system functions. "Understanding the Nervous System" provides engineers with simplified models of the auditory system, the visual system, and, to the extent that it is known, how the brain functions.
