The Geometry of Excitability and Bursting

Posted by Bayle Shanks at 9:30 PM EST

Wow, i finally downloaded and paged through (like literally just flipped through the pages, I haven’t read the book) Eugene Izhikevich’s new textbook, The Geometry of Excitability and Bursting, and many parts of it look awesome! It looks like it goes into more detail than i need to know about many things, but for once, here’s a book that lays out in clear terms, categorizes, and contrasts the various types of neural models, and also explains how nonlinear dynamical theory can be applied to these models and to synchronization etc in their network.

This book is being added to my ideal computational neurobiology curriculum.
