Written for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and professionals in neuroscience or physiological psychology, this book explores the mathematical principles by which brains generate spikes, make decisions, store memories, and control actions. It assumes a basic knowledge of calculus and develops the dynamical foundations of neuroscience using problem sets and MATLAB M-files.

Companion Software: The author has developed a set of MATLAB M-files, which are available on a disk bound in the book.
