This book is a collection of papers presented at a 1987 meeting that was, at least, partly intended to "define the field." It gathers papers from many of the most important contributors to computation neuroscience. Each author has written a chapter on some aspect of that author's work. Thus, this book is not intended as an introductory text. What it does provide, however, is a carefully written and well-edited presentation of many of the issues in computational neuroscience. It is particularly valuable because most chapters have been written from a broader perspective than one will find in the original literature. The chapters are grouped by the level of their approach (eg, synapse, network, neural map, or system). The book's structure is intentionally wide ranging and captures the diversity of the field. It might be fair to say that about the only sure unifying theme in<i>Computational Neuroscience</i>is its strong
