Biology and Computation: A Physicist's Choice (Advanced Series in Neuroscience, Vol.3)
Editorial Reviews
D Sherrington, Network: Computation in Neural Systems, 1995
This is a valuable collection of important reprints of articles related to neural computation, compiled and edited by two physicists who have made significant personal contributions to the statistical physics of neural networks and other complex strongly interacting many-body systems ... The book represents a very valuable cultural cross-field collection to assist scientists in any one of the sub-disciplines of neural networks to appreciate the important aspects of the others. As such it has a clear place in the library of any institution where neuroscience is practiced, by scientists from whatever discipline.

Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive review of the works in the rapidly evolving field of neural networks and brain studies. Its purpose is two-fold: to help physicists entering this field to get a broader view of the context of the domain, and to help scientists of other disciplines to reach a better understanding of the physicists' contributions within a context of perspectives they can relate to.
Included in the volume are 68 carefully selected, high quality reprints to provide the volume with both breadth and depth. It is organized into 5 sections and 22 chapters, both the sections and chapters being preceded by introductory comments by the editors.
