Systems Approaches to Developmental Neurobiology edited by Pamela A. Raymond, Stephen S. Easter Jr., Giorgio M. Innocenti.

It is appropriate at the outset of this book to pose a question that was often asked --of the organizers before the meeting took place and later among those who participated in the meeting -- "What is meant by 'Systems Approaches' in the study of developmental neurobiology?" The...
