Exploring the Thalamus and Its Role in Cortical Function
The thalamus plays a critical role in perceptual processing, but many questions remain about what thalamic acitivities contribute to sensory and motor functions. In this book, two pioneers in research on the thalamus examine the close two-way relationship between the thalamus and the rest of the brain.

Imagine a seminar in which four smart people address the significance of a deep and central brain structure, the thalamus, in its relationship to the overlying cerebral cortex. Among the four, we hear from an economist, a mathematician, and two scientists. For medical or neuroscience students, or for trainees in neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry, Edison K. Miyawaki describes relevant thalamocortical anatomy in humans and other vertebrates. He summarizes known thalamocortical connections in their rich complexity. Thalamus and its Cortex is an experiment in teaching replete with old (but still good) and contemporary insights about the relationship between cortex and subcortex.
The Cerebral Cortex and Thalamus
The Cerebral Cortex and Thalamus is a groundbreaking volume bringing together a cohesive account of cortical and thalamic mechanisms for control of behavior with an emphasis on the importance of interactions between the two structures.
