I heard there is a recent "accessible" guide to the FEP. Could someone remind me of the reference?

Drumroll… may I present to you, IIT 4.0: arxiv.org/abs/2212.14787 way to start the year :) (preprint!)

And accompanying: detailed account of system integrated information arxiv.org/abs/2212.14537 :)

And here is the final preprint from my new year sprint. A quantum (IIT) paper. My physics undergrad self would be so relieved…

Now out as a peer-reviewed article: System Integrated Information mdpi.com/2130576 #mdpientropy via Entropy MDPI

Quantum paper: check! (life goal accomplished) Out now: Computing the Integrated Information of a Quantum Mechanism mdpi.com/2174080 #mdpientropy via Entropy MDPI

Which Computational Neuroscience books would you recommend beyond Dayan & Abbott? Specifically looking for more recent books, that talk more about brain functioning and cognition, modeling and ANN (but only in relation/comparison to the real brain). Thank you!!
