Interesting title. Can you describe a little more what it's about?

I highly recommend this book if you are a fan of math, logic or even philosophy.

I'm currently on page 150, Roger Penrose is trying in his book to figure out if it is possible for Artificial Intelligence to produce machines which can behave in a human brain manner (specially when it comes to feelings, emotions and analysis), so far the book is so interesting and extremely informative.

Sounds good if it's not too technical. Can I read it as a layman?

It doesn't sound like fiction, but pretty interesting nonetheless. I'll keep an eye open for it.

What about your book?

There is some mathematical explanation like when he trys to illustrate the Turing Machine but it is not that complicated and still you can easily skip such parts and concentrate only on the findings.

Easily one of the most informative books I have read lately, highly recommended.

What about your book?

It's the one Johnny Depp made a movie about. This American journalist moved to PR to work there and all he's doing right now is getting drunk and fucking bitches. I'm only halfway into it, but it was written by Hunter S. Thompson so it's very entertaining to read.

Certainly not science fiction but many great and really inspiring ideas, Roger Penrose is one of the most famous mathematical physicist, shared several awards and honors with Stephen Hawking.

"The Emperor's New Mind: Concerning Computers, Minds, and The Laws of Physics" Roger Penrose.

He is not related to British economist Edith Penrose by any chance?!

Never heard of the movie either.

They showed it here not too long ago.

Ordered 2 books yesterday. Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant, and Why We Believe In Gods by Thomas J Anderson Jr. Let's see if this is my cup of tea.

The latter arrived today. I think I'll start with this one and keep the former aside till I finish this. Hope to finish this in a week or so.

Good luck reading the first one. I don't understand why anyone would read Kant unless they are forced to.

So I've heard.
