Journey of the Mind: How Thinking Emerged from Chaos
Author: Ogi Ogas
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 1324006587
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Two neuroscientists reveal why consciousness exists and how it works by examining eighteen increasingly intelligent minds, from microbes to humankind—and beyond. Why do you exist? How did atoms and molecules transform into sentient creatures that experience longing, regret, compassion, and even marvel at their own existence? What does it truly mean to have a mind—to think? Science has offered few answers to these existential questions until now. Journey of the Mind is the first book to offer a unified account of the mind that explains how consciousness, language, self-awareness, and civilization arose incrementally out of chaos. The journey begins three billion years ago with the emergence of the universe’s simplest possible mind. From there, the book explores the nanoscopic archaeon, whose thinking machinery consists of a handful of molecules, then advances through amoebas, worms, frogs, birds, monkeys, and humans, explaining what each “new” mind could do that previous minds could not. Though they admire the triumph of human consciousness, Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam argue that humans are hardly the most sophisticated minds on the planet. The same physical principles that produce human self-awareness are leading cities and nation-states to develop “superminds,” and perhaps planting the seeds for even higher forms of consciousness. Written in lively, accessible language accompanied by vivid illustrations, Journey of the Mind is a mind-bending work of popular science, the first general 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.

Random Journeys: New Zealand
Author: Trevor Cree
Publisher: Trevor Cree
ISBN:
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 633
Book Description
What would happen if a traveller only visited locations in a city, region or country that had been chosen completely at random? The concept of travelling in a random manner is not new but people usually prefer to buy high quality guidebooks to help them identify the particular places that they would like to visit on their own personal journeys. A few prefer not to use guidebooks at all but to follow their instincts and perhaps the advice gleaned from fellow travellers that they happen to meet on the way. But what if the five, ten or fifty places to be visited have been chosen by drawing letters of the alphabet from a hat to identify the first letters of each location? And then and only then are the actual place names revealed and their location on the map identified. And to add a necessary degree of discipline each and every place must be visited however uninteresting or remote it may seem to be. No convenient substitutions allowed, no deletions, no ifs or buts. A recipe for disaster surely? At least a waste of precious time and precious funds? Follow Sas and Bro on their 50 day odyssey covering 60 randomly selected locations in New Zealand. And find out what they discovered on their random journey.

Journey Beyond: A Non-Dual Approach
Author: Acharya Dr. Kuntimaddi Sadananda
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1646505476
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
Everyone is searching for everlasting happiness. Yet, none can find it by pursuit; at the same time, none can stop the pursuit. This seems to be the tragedy of human life—nay, the life of every being. Every pursuit is limited space-wise, time-wise and object-wise. Any pursuit that is limited cannot give everlasting happiness. Some promise eternal happiness after death if one follows their path. Yet, no one has returned to claim that they achieved it by following that path. One sage declares that ‘truth is a pathless land’. Vedanta ascertains that the truth is beyond the space-time-object-wise limitations, and you are that truth–tat tvam asi. The journey beyond space and time limitations is the central theme of the discussions in this text.
