The evolution of nervous systems dates back to the first development of nervous systems in animals (or metazoans). Neurons developed as specialized electrical signaling cells in multicellular animals, adapting the mechanism of action potentials present in motile single-celled and colonial eukaryotes. Simple nerve nets seen in animals like Cnidaria (jellyfish) evolved first, consisted of polymodal neurons which serve a dual purpose in motor and sensory functions

The principles that govern the evolution of brain structure are not well understood.

The principles that govern the evolution of brain structure are not well understood. Small bodied mammals have relatively large brains compared to their bodies whereas large mammals (such as whales) have smaller brain to body ratios. If brain weight is plotted against body weight for primates, the regression line of the sample points can indicate the brain power of a primate species

The additional aim of Evolution of Brain Complexity and Animal Minds is to go beyond cognition, to encompass other aspects of consciousness, and to enhance consideration of brain diversity.
