Friggin amazing! More like this! This comes at an extremely opportune time for me, as Andrew McKnight (a fellow Seattle LWer) and I are doing a cognitive science study group and were just starting to read Foundations of Neuroeconomics. This will provide a valuable guide to our study. We will try to keep track of our study to advise others. I hope that one day this kind of material is provided in a standard course that people can take.

Comments:

• The neuron firing bar graph thingies are a bit tricky to interpret at first. Perhaps you want to use mean firing rate graphs?
• Is the Lateral Interparietal Area (LIP) the most associated with eye movements? Foundations led me to believe that it was most associated with coordinate transformations and the Frontal Eye Fields (FEF) was more interesting in terms of choice. Perhaps I just haven't read far enough.
• I think you probably could have released each of these sections as their own short daily post. This might produce longer lasting learning, especially for non-dedicated (and thus will not set out to study this repeatedly and specifically) or new readers who will not have been trained for the informational density of your posts.
