JOURNEY OF THE MIND - OGI OGAS SAI GADDAM GEBUNDEN

Why do minds exist? How did mud and stone develop into beings that can experience longing 
regret  love and compassion-beings that are aware of their own experience? Until recently 
science offered few answers to these existential questions. Journey of the Mind is the first
book to offer a unified account of the mind that explains how consciousness  language  the Self
and civilisation emerged incrementally out of chaos. The journey begins three billion years ago
with the emergence of the simplest possible mind  a nanoscopic archeon  then ascends through
amoebas  worms  frogs  birds  monkeys and AI  examining successively smarter ways of thinking.
The authors explain the mathematical principles generating conscious experience and show how
these principles led cities and democratic nations to develop new forms of consciousness-the
self-aware superminds. Journey of the Mind concludes by contemplating a higher stage of
consciousness already emerging-and the ultimate fate of all minds in the universe.
