Would anybody out there in CSGnetland know of some good references  
concerning the evolution of the brain as a progressively hierarchical  
perceptual control system?

Of course, I don't expect there to be much out there which discusses brain  
evolution in this way. But even a good source of information comparing  
nervous systems of extant species form jellyfish to worm to insect to  
vertebrates, etc. would be very helpful.--Gary
