Read on Hacker News…Principles-Neural-Science-Eric-Kandel/... The fourth edition does a good job at higher-level stuff. But be forewarned: It is biology intensive. For less biology and more cognitive neuroscience, you can try: http://www.amazon.com/Cognitive-Neuroscience-Second-Michael-... or http://www.amazon.com/Cognitive-Neuroscience-Neuropsychology... I used the Gazzaniga when I taught Intro to Cognitive Neuroscience even as I wasn't super impressed (which is a common complaint - tolerance, not true acceptance). I know some folks like the Banich book instead. If, with your Math background, you're interested in neural computation and modeling there are also some good books along those lines. Just let me know and I'll hunt down the links.
