Review: Brain, Mind, and Computers

User Review  - David - Goodreads

He tosses around names by the myriads, most of whom I haven't read, though he writes as though assuming the reader has. So it wasn't easy reading. I think I followed the main arguments, which were good, and I liked the book, if for no other reason because it was different. Read full review
