How the mind arose out of chaos
Written in lively, accessible language accompanied by illustrations, Journey of the Mind reveals why consciousness exists and how it works by examining eighteen increasingly intelligent minds. This is the first book to share the cutting-edge mathematical basis for consciousness, language, and the self. It shows how a “unified theory of the mind” can explain the mind’s greatest mysteries—and offer clues about the ultimate fate of all minds in the universe. The journey begins three billion years ago with the emergence of the universe’s simplest mind. From there, the book explores the nanoscopic archaeon, whose thinking machinery consists of a handful of molecules, then moves through amoebas, worms, frogs, birds, monkeys, and humans.
