neural networks

According to a noted neurobiologist, the rapid growth of computer technology is dividing humans into "digital natives" -- people who grew up using technology -- and "digital immigrants" -- people who started using technology later in life.

That's the provocative suggestion of Dr. Gary Small, a professor of psychiatry and biobehavioral sciences and director of the UCLA Center on Aging, in his new book, iBrain: Surviving the Technological Alteration of the Modern Mind. Small coauthored the book with his wife, Gigi Vorgan, a former actress and Hollywood scriptwriter.
