RAY KURZWEIL - GEBRAUCHT HOW TO CREATE A MIND T...

The bold futurist and bestselling author explores the limitless potential of
reverse-engineering the human brain  Ray Kurzweil is arguably today's most influential-and
often controversial-futurist. In How to Create a Mind  Kurzweil presents a provocative
exploration of the most important project in human-machine civilization-reverse engineering the
brain to understand precisely how it works and using that knowledge to create even more
intelligent machines.  Kurzweil discusses how the brain functions  how the mind emerges from
the brain  and the implications of vastly increasing the powers of our intelligence in
addressing the world's problems. He thoughtfully examines emotional and moral intelligence and
the origins of consciousness and envisions the radical possibilities of our merging with the
intelligent technology we are creating.  Certain to be one of the most widely discussed and
debated science books of the year  How to Create a Mind is sure to take its place alongside
Kurzweil's previous classics which include Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live Forever
and The Age of Spiritual Machines.
