Summary: Excellent introduction to both animal behavior and modeling
Comment: This book is excellent for those interested in learning about animal behavior and how to model it with neural networks. While many other books focus on neural networks unto themselves, this book's primary goal is to develop a suitable explanation of basic animal behaviors, while using biologically constrained neural network models to demonstrate their predictions and to estimate their mechanisms. These down-to-earth models not only serve to make testable predictions about behavior and the mechanisms that ought to produce them, but also foster the ability to think about problems of behavior in more carefully defined and even mathematical terms. Understanding the models in this book will also give the reader a useful tool for thinking about animal behavior in a way that brings together stimulus perception, associations, attention, imagery, and other processes.
