Coherent Behavior in Neuronal Networks features a review of recent research in this area from some of the world's foremost experts on systems neuroscience. It contains cutting-edge mathematical, statistical, and computational techniques.

Some brain-state transitions such as sleep cycling, and anesthetic induction, are obvious and detected readily with a few EEG electrodes, and others such as the emergence of gamma rhythms during cognition are more subtle. This book contends that the bulk changes in brain behavior can be treated as phase transitions between distinct brain states.

The dynamic-clamp (also called "conductance injection") allows experimentalists and theoreticians to challenge neurons (or any other type of cell) with complex conductance stimuli generated by a computer.The technique can be implemented from neural simulation environments and a variety of custom-made or commercial systems.
