The 25 short chapters present the argument and evidence that brains address this problem on a wholly trial and error basis. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe goal is to encourage neuroscientists, computer scientists, philosophers, and other interested readers to consider this concept of neural function and its implications, not least of which is the conclusion that brains don’t “compute.”\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“I highly recommend this volume for behavioral, cognitive, and evolutionary neuroscientists.” (Paul Tibbetts, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 97 (2), June, 2022)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePART I.
