The Mind's I (Douglas Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett)

"The Mind's I," edited by Douglas Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett, is a collection of essays exploring consciousness, identity, and how our minds construct reality. It examines questions about the nature of self-awareness, the experience of being a conscious thinker, and the distinctions between mind, brain, and illusions of agency. The book combines scientific insights, philosophy, and thought experiments to challenge traditional notions of identity and consciousness, encouraging readers to reflect on how our sense of self arises and how understanding these processes can reshape our view of human experience.
