Reviews
If you want to understand the frontal lobes of the brain then there is no better guide than this. It covers both the very latest research and the seminal studies that have shaped the field. Not only does it integrate what we know about the patterns of activity that play across prefrontal neurons with neuroimaging research but it is informed by a deep understanding of anatomy and evolution. There is nothing else quite like it. * Matthew Rushworth FRS, Watts Professor, Department of Psychology and Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (WIN), University of Oxford *
