Summary: a reasonable overview but don't expect too much detail
Review: As the other reviewer said, if you know nothing about neural networks, then this is a good place to start. It begins with an overview of neural networks in the brain, using the visual processing system as a detailed example. Once this is done, it moves on to general concepts and basic theory encountered in the field. The drawback is topics tend to be skimmed over with the minimum of detail and very few examples, some of which are barely explained - often there are figures of networks with no real discussion of what is going on. Having said that, reading this book gave me enough understanding of the underlying ideas so that i was able to pick up a more mathematical treatment of the subject and follow what was going on and i definitely think it was worth the purchase.

Summary: best for beginners
Review: If you have no idea what this subject is all about or if you are interested in knowing the concept of neural networks then try this book, it gives you the conceptual view in a simple matter which is perfectly enough to gain your interest in the subject. If any one wanna work in this field I strongly suggest them to read this book before they want to continue in the field."A simple and well organised matter" is the best fit for this book.
