"The Mind's I" (Douglas Hofstadter & Daniel Dennett)

"The Mind's I" is a collection of essays by Douglas Hofstadter and Daniel Dennett that explores the nature of consciousness, self-awareness, and identity. It examines how our mind constructs a sense of self and the subjective experience of being "I," questioning what it means to have a mind and how our perception shapes reality. The book delves into philosophical and scientific ideas, encouraging readers to consider that the self may be a complex pattern rather than a fixed entity. It invites reflection on the mysterious and layered nature of human consciousness and the boundaries of individual identity.
