Each volumein the series consistsof five to eight substantial chapters on a particulartopic.In some cases, the topics will be of traditional interestfor which there is a solid body of data and theory, such asauditory neuroanatomy and neurophysiology. Other volumes inthe series will deal withtopics which have begun to maturemore recently, such as development, plasticity, and compu-tational models of neural processing. In many cases, theseries editors will be joined by a co-editor having specialexpertise in the topic of the volume.
