The editor introduces the volume by emphasizing both the value and the limitation of  the comparative approach in natural and laboratory settings, stressing that they need information from the behaving animal as well as the neuronal structures in order to understand the processes involved in information storage and retrieval. Seferal chapter review progress from using animal models, including worms, mollucs, insect, rodents, birds, and nonhuman and human primates. In addition, concept such as planning, decision-making, self-awareness and episodic-like memory, usually reserved for human beings, are discussed at several taxonomics levels. The final chapters take an engineering perspective and describe synthetic approaches, including modeling neuronal function and developing a concise theory of the brain.
