From the reviews: "This book is highly recommended to trainees and neuroscientists, who are actively looking for the state-of-the-art recording techniques, to observe and study oscillating biological substrates that are linked to brain function and behavior. ... The readers will be appreciative to the editors ... and all authors, for the sufficient theoretical background, methodological descriptions and clear illustrations and discussions, in every single chapter."
