The book "Prefrontal Cortex: from Synaptic Plasticity to Cognition" offers an interdisciplinary approach to studying the functions of the prefrontal cortex in both rodents and human and non-human primates. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, from the membrane properties of prefrontal neurons to cognitive psychology. It presents not just a collection of subjects, but the chapters are designed to connect various areas of the prefrontal field to provide a comprehensive picture. The authors have compiled knowledge on neuronal and synaptic properties as well as the role of neuromodulators like dopamine. Additionally, the significance of the prefrontal cortex in mental processes such as working memory, attentional shifting, and rule-following is highlighted. This book serves as a thorough introduction to the relationship between cellular and cognitive processes.
