This volume comprises invited presentations from the 8th International Evoked Potentials Symposium. It is no longer possible to categorise chapters by modality, so the Editors have grouped them under broader headings reflecting the use of Evoked Potentials (EPs) in the search for sources and origins of phenomena; the insights they offer into cognitive processing; and their role in clinical advances. Contributions from EPs experts worldwideThe wide variety of eneavours in which EPs play a partThe text is divided into 3 key parts: cognition and higher cerebral function, sources and origins and clinical advances.
