The author logically reasons about goal functions and organization of the nervous systems which are enforced by the conditions in which a nervous system lives. Starting from philosophical-rational motivation the author proceeds directly to giving exact engineering descriptions of functions, structures and integrated circuits of nervous system models, and so forth, followed by program simulations of the nervous systems and development of application systems prototypes. Such constructive approach defines important theoretical value of the book. As a practical result, the book yields a way to create self learning machines similar to newborn alive creatures, step by step adapting to the given reality. The development in this direction leads to occurrence of systems of "Autonomous Artificial Intelligence" which is a newborn self-learning machine capable of achieving high level of intelligence at a mature age.
The book is intended for students and teachers, scientists and engineers and for all who are interested in the subject.
