Modeling Phase Transitions in the Brain
Foreword by Walter J. Freeman. The induction of unconsciousness using anesthetic drugs demonstrates that the cerebral cortex can operate in two very different modes: alert and responsive versus unaware and quiescent. But the states of wakefulness and sleep are not single-neuron properties---they eme...
