Since Caton (1875) recorded electrical potential change from the exposed brain of a rabbit and, later, Berger (1929) demonstrated electrical currents produced by the living brain of man, the study of electrical activity of the cerebral cortex has become increasingly important in the understanding of brain function. However, the analysis of this activity is not an easy task, not only because of the extreme complexity of the structure of the cerebral cortex, but also because of the inadequacy of the methods conventionally used for the recording of the cortical activity.
