About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. Douglas Hofstadter's critically acclaimed return to the themes of Godel, Escher, Bach--an original and controversial view of the nature of consciousness and identity.
Synopsis
I Am a Strange Loop is a 2007 book by Douglas Hofstadter, examining in depth the concept of a strange loop originally developed in his 1979 book Gödel, Escher, Bach. Hofstadter had previously expressed disappointment with how Gödel, Escher, Bach, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1979 for general nonfiction, was received. In the preface to the twentieth-anniversary edition, Hofstadter laments that his book has been misperceived as a hodge-podge of neat things with no central theme.
