Understanding the Nervous System by Sid Deutsch

Understanding the Nervous System An Engineering Perspective Providing a fascinating alternative to the unwieldy life science sources, this book describes how the nervous system (including the brain) communicates with, sends signals to, and receives input from the sensory organs. Starting with the basic principles, the authors unfold the mystery of this communication with simple, elegant models to enhance your understanding of how the nervous system functions. Understanding the Nervous System provides engineers with simplified models of the auditory system, the visual system, and, to the extent that it is known, how the brain functions. IE Press also publishes a growing number of understanding technology books for the curious, non-specialist engineer.
