The Mind’s I: Fantasies and Reflections on Self and Soul

Fantasies and Reflections on Self and Soul

Brilliant, shattering, mind-jolting, The Mind's I is a searching, probing cosmic journey of the mind that delves deeply into the problem of self and self-consciousness. From verbalizing chimpanzees to scientific speculations involving machines with souls, from the mesmerizing, maze-like fiction of Borges to the tantalizing, dreamlike fiction of Lem, this book opens the mind to new dimensions of exciting possibilities.

Explore the Black Box of fantasy, the windfalls of reflection, and the ever-changing landscape of consciousness. Edited by Douglas R. Hofstadter and Daniel C. Dennett, this book is a sign of change in the understanding of the Self.
