- catalog abstract ""In How Brains Make Up Their Minds, Walter J. Freeman charts the brain's mind, progressing from single nerve cells to cooperative nerve cell assemblies to the emergence of complex brain patterns. By drawing on new developments in brain imaging and theories of chaos and nonlinear dynamics, he shows how brains create intentions and meanings."
