The Mathematical Brain Across the Lifespan

The Mathematical Brain Across the Lifespan is the latest volume in the Progress in Brain Research series that focuses on new trends and developments. This established international series examines major areas of basic and clinical research within the neurosciences, as well as popular and emerging subfields.
- Provides a comprehensive review of the most recent progress in the mathematical brain across the lifespan
- Explores new trends and developments in the field
- Enhances the literature of neuroscience by further expanding the established, ongoing international series Progress in Brain Research
