Shadows of the mind

A New York Times bestseller when it appeared in 1989, Roger Penrose's The Emperor's New Mind was universally hailed as a marvelous survey of modern physics as well as a brilliant reflection on the human mind, offering a new perspective on the scientific landscape and a visionary glimpse of the possible future of science. Now, in Shadows of the Mind, Penrose offers another exhilarating look at modern science as he mounts an even more powerful attack on artificial intelligence. But perhaps more important, in this volume he points the way to a new science, one that may eventually explain the physical basis of the human mind.

  • "Con il suo precedente libro, La mente nuova dell'imperatore, Roger Penrose ha tracciato una mappa completa e dettagliata del meraviglioso mondo della fisica moderna e avviato una riflessione seria e originale sulla coscienza umana, definendo da un nuovo punto di vista un territorio già esplorato. Con il libro Ombre della mente, spinge ancora più avanti la sua ricerca nel tentativo di rispondere alle domande fondamentali sulla coscienza e sul significato del pensiero, interrogandosi su quella qualità sottile ma materiale della nostra mente che ci rende veramente umani e cosi profondamente diversi da un computer. E' un'indagine avvincente, che Penrose si prefigge di condurre per intero nell'ambito della ricerca scientifica, anche se non necessariamente nei termini di quella odierna e della fisica classica, spiega in maniera molto chiara e in modo affascinante le teorie sull'intelligenza artificiale, macchine di Turing, gatti di Schrödinger, e di computer giocatori di scacchi. Tutto questo rende il libro molto interessante e rivoluzionario nel campo della fisica e della filosofia."
