Cerebral Cortex Comparative Structure and Evolution of Cerebral Cortex, Part II

Cerebral Cortex Comparative Structure and Evolution of Cerebral Cortex, Part II / edited by Edward G. Jones, Alan Peters.

The cerebral cortex, especially that part customarily designated "neocortex," is one of the hallmarks of mammalian evolution and reaches its greatest size, relatively speaking, and its widest structural diversity in the human brain. The evolution of this structure, as remarkable for the hu...
