Bücher der Reihe The Uttal Tetralogy of Cognitive Neuroscience

Originally published in 1973, this book deals with what were, even at that time, the well-known neural coding processes of the sensory transmission processes. The book was written to demonstrate the common features of the various senses. It concentrates on the most peripheral neural aspects of the senses starting with the physical transduction process and culminating in the arrival of signals at the brain.

Originally published in 1978, the second book in this series picks up the neural trail of sensory messages after they arrive at the brain. In addition to the emphasis on central representation and coding of sensory signals, it also considers the topics of brain localization and learning.
