Description
Marvin Minsky one of the fathers of computer science and cofounder of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT gives a revolutionary answer to the age-old question: How does the mind work?
Minsky brilliantly portrays the mind as a society of tiny components that are themselves mindless. Mirroring his theory, Minsky boldly casts The Society of Mind as an intellectual puzzle whose pieces are assembled along the way. Each chapter on a self-contained page corresponds to a piece in the puzzle. As the pages turn, a unified theory of the mind emerges, like a mosaic. Ingenious, amusing, and easy to read, The Society of Mind is an adventure in imagination.
