LEARNING THEORY AND BEHAVIOUR
Description
The first volume in the series, Learning Theory and Behavior edited by Randolf Menzel, consists of 38 chapters and sets the tone for the interdisciplinary and comparative approach to the study of learning and memory. He introduces the volume by emphasizing both the value and the limitation of the comparative approach in natural and laboratory settings, stressing that we need information from the behaving animal as well as the neuronal structures in order to understand the processes involved in information storage and retrieval. Several chapters review progress from using animal models, including worms, molluscs, insects, rodents, birds, and nonhuman and human primates. In addition, concepts such as planning, decision-making, self-awareness and episodic-like memory, usually reserved for human beings, are discussed at several taxonomic levels. The final chapters take an engineering perspective and describe synthetic approaches, including modeling neuronal function and developing a concise theory of the brain.
