About this title

Synopsis

Intended for neurobiologists with an interest in mathematical analysis of neural data as well as physicists and mathematicians interested in information processing by "real" nervous systems, this text presents a review of relevant concepts in information theory and statistical decision theory.

Review

A joy to read...This book will undoubtedly become a classic. The ideas presented in it have already begun (in no small part through the work of the authors) to reshape our views of the neural code. This book will make them accessible to a much wider audience.
