Synaptic Modification, Neuron Selectivity, and Nervous System Organization by William B Levy

First published in 1985. This is a collection of essays presenting various theoretical ideas concerning distributive memories and cortical models. In addition, it includes a discussion of how a central set of assumptions can explain much of what is now known about deprivation and normal development of visual cortex and can perhaps also serve as the basis for a theory of higher nervous system organization as well as the Changeux model of how a synapse can modify itself.

"An important reference book for graduate students and faculty in the neuroscience discipline, psychology and other related disciplines, and secondarily for those involved in vision researchIt is to be considered a 'state of the art' book, both experimentally and theoretically, concerning neuronal activity in accounting for sensory, perceptual and cognitive processes."
