Implications for understanding disrupted function in neurological and psychiatric disorders, as well as societal issues, such as volitional control of behavior and educational practice, are also considered.Preface\u003cbr\u003eList of Contributors\u003cbr\u003e1. \u003ci\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2. \u003ci\u003eCross-Species Differences in Anatomy and Function: Prefrontal Cortex Homology \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3. \u003ci\u003ePrefrontal Cortical Neuronal Physiology: A Cross-Species Perspective \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4. \u003ci\u003eEvolutionary Perspectives: Homologies and Analogies \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e5. \u003ci\u003eDifferentiating Functional Contributions across Prefrontal Cortex \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6. \u003ci\u003ePosition of the Prefrontal Cortex across Cortical Hierarchy \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7. \u003ci\u003eThe Nature of the Hierarchical Organization of Lateral Prefrontal Cortex \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e8. \u003ci\u003eFunctional Fractionation and Integration: Physiology, Networks, and Behaviors \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9. \u003ci\u003eHow the Brain Creates Unity and Diversity of Executive Functions \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10. \u003ci\u003eComputational Models of Prefrontal Cortex Function \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e11. \u003ci\u003eNetwork Approaches to Understand the Prefrontal Cortex and Executive Functio? \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e12. \u003ci\u003eIntegrative Psychological, Computational, and Mechanistic Approaches to Frontal Lobe Function \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e13. \u003ci\u003eNeurosurgery for Intractable OCD: A Window into Prefrontal Cortical Function in Humans \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14. \u003ci\u003eCognitive Interventions Targeting Executive Functions: Impact on Prefrontal Circuits?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e15. \u003ci\u003ePharmacological Modulation of Prefrontal Cortex in Affective Disorders: Emerging Therapies\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e16. \u003ci\u003eTranslating Understanding of the Prefrontal Cortex to the Bedside and Beyond \u003c\/i\u003eTrevor W.
