2. Brain-Computer Interfacing
2013 by Rajesh P. N. Rao
"Exploring Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) has evolved into a multifaceted field, finding applications across a wide spectrum, including security, lie detection, alertness monitoring, telepresence, gaming, education, art, and human augmentation. This comprehensive introduction to the realm of BCIs serves as an ideal textbook for upper-level undergraduate and first-year graduate courses in neural engineering and brain-computer interfacing, catering to students from diverse academic backgrounds. Moreover, it is a valuable resource for self-study and serves as a reference guide for neuroscientists, computer scientists, engineers, and medical practitioners. The book provides readers with essential foundations in neuroscience, brain recording and stimulation technologies, signal processing, and machine learning. It offers an extensive exploration of various BCI types in both animals and humans, encompassing invasive, semi-invasive, noninvasive, stimulating, and bidirectional BCIs. Furthermore, the book delves into BCI applications and raises critical ethical considerations. Each chapter features thought-provoking questions and exercises, while a supporting website offers an annotated list of relevant links to enhance the learning experience."

3. Brain-Computer Interfaces: Principles and Practice
2012 by Jonathan Wolpaw, Elizabeth Winter Wolpaw
"Presenting a comprehensive and balanced overview, the book 'Brain-Computer Interfaces: Principles and Practice' serves as an introductory guide and comprehensive summary of the diverse facets within the realm of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research and development. Its overarching objective is to provide a cohesive presentation of the fundamental principles, existing practices, and potential future prospects in this field. Over the past 15 years, the BCI domain has experienced a notable upsurge, propelled by several contributing factors. First, the availability of affordable computer hardware and software has enabled the intricate and high-speed analysis of brain activity essential for BCIs. Second, there has been a significant deepening of our understanding of the central nervous system, resulting in an abundance of new insights into brain signal nature and functional correlations, accompanied by improved signal recording methods, both short-term and long-term. Third, and most notably, there has been a growing acknowledgment of the needs and capabilities of individuals afflicted with disorders such as cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple sclerosis, and muscular dystrophies. Thanks to recent technological advancements, research, and BCI applications, even those with severely limited voluntary muscle control can now access rudimentary means of communication and control, enhancing their quality of life significantly."
