When it comes to the mind, the first thing most people think of is the “brain”. This is because scientific evidence shows us that the brain is the center of thinking and consciousness. There are also people who believe that our thoughts are controlled by the soul. This book tells us that the mind is a system of organs of computation. It is the result of “natural selection”, produced as our ancestors went through the process of overcoming the challenges to survival. In other words, the mind is not the brain, but the result of the brain's actions.
