Mind as Mosaic: The Robot in the Machine is a book that presents the history of ideas regarding the mind-body problem as well as the most up-to-date research findings about our fascinating brains. Mind as Mosaic is a beguiling introduction to how the mind is created by the brain. Packed with startling and riveting examples and clear explanations of how the mind is robotically formed by brain processes, Mind as Mosaic is science wrapped in humanity, facts laced with wit, philosophy in a white laboratory coat. The subject is not only fun, it is profound. With clarity, humor and poetry, Mind as Mosaic mixes history, biology, philosophy, artificial intelligence and psychology in fresh, cutting-edge and insightful clarity. People who drill holes in their heads, cannibals, electrical stimulation of brains, people who are blind but don't know it, and other absorbing and intriguing wonders are presented and explained in an uncompromising, honest style that is compelling and accessible.
