This collection of fifteen previouslypublished papers, some of them not widely available, have been carefully chosen andannotated by Rall's colleagues and other leading neuroscientists. It brings togetherRall's work over more than forty years, including his first papers extending cabletheory to complex dendritic trees, his ground-breaking paper introducingcompartmental analysis to computational neuroscience, and his studies of synapticintegration in motoneurons, dendrodendritic interactions, plasticity of dendriticspines, and active dendritic properties.Today it is well known that the brain'ssynaptic information is processed mostly in the dendrites where many of the plasticchanges underlying learning and memory take place. It is particularly timely to lookagain at the work of a major creator of the field, to appreciate where thingsstarted and where they have led, and to correct any misinterpretations of Rall'swork.
