This book is written in French for the neurologist unfamiliar with the mathematical language of cybernetics. The authors survey the contributions of computer models to our understanding of a number of neurological processes, from parkinsonian tremor to freudian psychopathology. The book is highly readable and easy to understand, even for the novitiate. Surprisingly, the cerebellum receives only scant attention. The book's lack of a bibliography greatly decreases its usefulness.
