Structure defines function -- Diversity of cortical functions is provided by inhibition -- Windows on the brain -- A system of rhythms -- Synchronization by oscillation -- The brain's default state -- Perturbation of the default patterns by experience -- The gamma buzz -- Perceptions and actions are brain state-dependent -- Oscillations in the "other cortex" -- Coupling of systems by oscillations -- Tough problems.
This work focuses on co-evolution of structure and function in the mammalian brain, illustrating how self-emerged oscillatory timing is the brain's fundamental organiser of neuronal information. Extensive supplementary notes make it accessible for the academic general reader but also engaging for neuroscientists.
