John McCrone

4.9/5 (9766 ratings)

Description:This book tries to view the mind from a single perspective. It is based on the assumption that the human mind must have evolved; that self-consciousness must have a biological basis. It then uses plain language to take the reader through some difficult territory: the origins of language, the evolution of habits of thought, and the "mapping" of the world in the brain which creates awareness. It ends up with the controversial conclusion that the human mind is only a few degrees different from an animal's and that self-consciousness, memory, and higher emotions are all simple language-driven abilities which we pick up as children.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
