Description: Brain from 25,000 Feet : High Level Explorations of Brain Complexity, Perception, Induction and Vagueness, Hardcover by Changizi, Mark A., ISBN 1402011768, ISBN-13 9781402011764, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Changizi (theoretical neurobiology, California Institute of Technology) is not concerned with the performance of brains at high altitude. Rather he wants to understand the brain by looking at it from far enough away that the organic mechanisms are not visible, and all that remains are the characteristics for any brain-like entity within constraints of the physical universe. He illustrates high-level approaches to brain science by explaining why natural language is vague, the inevitability of visual illusions for any animal with a non-instantaneous brain, and other puzzles. He also lays out a route for fellow researchers by introducing some of the mathematical, computational, and conceptual principles. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
