This Pulitzer Prize-winning book by Douglas Hofstadter is a fascinating exploration of the core ideas of cognitive science: meaning, reduction, recursion, and much more. Through a metaphorical fugue on minds and machines in the spirit of Lewis Carroll, the author invites us to reflect on the nature of formal systems and their relationship to mental activity. An essential work for those interested in artificial intelligence, philosophy, and mathematics.
