Book Rec

Can anyone recommend a good introductory book on global computation in the brain, aka. "Dynamic computation" or "Synchronization by oscillation"?

A complicated story of feedback loops piggybacking on environmental contingencies

"How we go from our genetic endowment to a fully developed human brain is a complicated story of feedback loops piggybacking on environmental contingencies, not a story of a developmental process unfolding in accordance with a 'genetic program.'"
- David Buller and Valerie Harcastle, "Evolutionary Psychology, Meet Developmental Neurobiology: Against Promiscuous Modularity" Brain and Mind 1: 313-314.
