INNS/ENNS/JNNS Membership includes a subscription to Neural Networks:

The International (INNS), European (ENNS), and Japanese (JNNS) Neural 
Network Societies are associations of scientists, engineers, students, 
and others seeking to learn about and advance the understanding of the 
modeling of behavioral and brain processes, and the application of 
neural modeling concepts to technological problems. Membership in any 
of the societies includes a subscription to Neural Networks, the official 
journal of the societies. Application forms should be sent to all the
societies you want to apply to (for example, one as a member with
subscription and the other one or two as a member without subscription).
The JNNS does not accept credit cards or checks; to apply to the JNNS,
send in the application form and wait for instructions about remitting
payment.
