Description
About the Book
In "A History of the Mind" Humphrey examines evolution and the birth of consciousness. "A wonderful book--brilliant, unsettling, and beautifully written. Humphrey cuts bravely through the currents of contemporary thinking, opening up new vistas on old problems offering a feast of provocative ideas."--Daniel Dennett.Book Synopsis
The relation of mind -- consciousness especially -- and body has puzzled scientists and philosophers for centuries. Nicholas Humphrey here tells the evolutionary story of how sensory consciousness has come into the world and what it does here. Written in the form of a journey of discovery, A HISTORY OF THE MIND, which Daniel Dennett has called "a wonderful book -- brilliant, unsettling and beautifully written" -- gives us a bold, influential interpretation of the nature of consciousness by one of the world's leading theoretical psychologists.Dimensions (Overall): 9.19 Inches (H) x 6.08 Inches (W) x .72 Inches (D)
