Lipton and Howard Eichenbaum -- Ventrolateral prefrontal cortex and controlling memory to inform action / David Badre -- Exploring the roles of the frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes in visual categorization / David J.

Summary Rules are central to human behaviour, but until now the field of neuroscience lacked a unified approach to understanding them. This book brings together the world's leading cognitive and systems neuroscientists to explain the most recent research on rule-guided behaviour
