The Cooperative Neuron is part of a revolution that is occurring in the sciences of brain and mind. It provides an accessible introduction to the new field of cellular psychology, a field built upon the recent discovery that many neurons in the brain cooperate to seek agreement in deciding what's relevant in the current context.
