Best book on neural networks is THE CRUSTACEAN STOMATOGASTRIC GANGLION by Selverston and Moulins (Springer 1987). If you mean neural-like networks, try the Rumelhart et al PARALLEL DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING (MIT Press 1986). We brain researchers sure get tired of hearing neural-like networks referred to as "neural networks", an established subject for 25 years since the days of Limulus lateral inhibition. Calling silicon networks "neural" is about like the hype in the early days when every digital computer was called a "brain" by the media. William H.
