About this product
Product Information
For all of neuroscience's advances, we've made little progress on its biggest question: How do simple cells in the brain create intelligence?Jeff Hawkins and his team discovered that the brain uses maplike structures to build a model of the world-not just one model, but hundreds of thousands of models of everything we know. This discovery allows Hawkins to answer important questions about how we perceive the world, why we have a sense of self, and the origin of high-level thought. A Thousand Brains heralds a revolution in the understanding of intelligence. It is a big-think book, in every sense of the word. One of the Financial Times ' Best Books of 2021 One of Bill Gates' Five Favorite Books of 2021

Reviews
"[F]illed with fascinating insights into the architecture of the brain and tantalizing clues about the future of intelligent machines." -- Bill Gates, "Intriguing.... Insightful stuff for readers immersed in the labyrinthine world of neuroscience."-- Kirkus, "In this fascinating book, Jeff Hawkins develops a new theory about the nature of human intelligence and the recurrent dispute between our old instinctive reptilian brains and the think box contained in our mammalian neocortex. Hawkins also explores the consequences of creating truly intelligent robots, which he suggests is achievable within several decades." -- John Thornhill , Financial Times

For one the book was NOT NEW and it looked to be a fake book. It was super misprinted and had ink spots. Two even tho they say they accept returns, they won't send you the label it has to go through PayPal. However they did refund my money after I started a claim with eBay. Buyer beware
