Biography
Dalhousie University.
"D.O. Hebb's cell assembly theory created the perspective on mind and brain which underlies all current research on neural networks. "Essays on Mind" Presents an easily readable account of Hebb's intellectual biography and philosophical views. This kaleidoscopic book provides a historically situated synopsis of cell-assembly theory, in the context of discussions on topics which range from free will, consciousness, and introspection to the evidence for extrasensory perception and the usefulness of I.Q. tests." — Remko Scha, BBN Laboratories
