The complexity of the brain and the protean nature of behavior remain the most elusive areas of science, but also the most important. van Hemmen and Sejnowski invited 23 experts from the many areas of systems neuroscience--from evolution to qualia--to formulate one problem each. Although the chapters were written independently and can be read separately, together these 23 problems provide a much-needed road map to the field of systems neuroscience that will serve as both an invaluable reference for students and researchers and a source of inspiration for future brain explorers.
