The main task of the nervous system is to drive animals towards their autonomous goals, feeding and reproduction. However, efficient achievement of these goals generally involves adaptation to a more or less complex interacting environment. To do so, the nervous system has to build efficient links between perceptions and actions over a large range of time scales.

The complexity of these links has tremendously increased during evolution, involving larger and larger combinations of perceptions from a “larger past”, and more refined actions. This culminates with what one may call the “human intellingence”.
