After Thought: The Computer Challenge to Human Intelligence Paperback - 1997
by James Bailey
In the tradition of GODEL, ESCHER, BACH comes a profound and original book that looks at computers and shows the potential of these astounding machines to reshape what we think about and even how we think. Ranging widely over the history of ideas from Galileo to Darwin and beyond, AFTER THOUGHT will astonish and fascinate all of us who much come to terms with today's unstoppable computer revolution.
First line
When Henry David Thoreau went to the woods of Concord, Massachusetts, he was seeking, among other things, to take back a set of muscle tasks that had long since been reassigned from humans to animals.
