How did we come to have minds?
In From Bacteria to Bach and Back, philosopher Daniel C. Dennett, provides his most comprehensive exploration of evolutionary thinking yet, building on ideas from computer science and biology to show how a comprehending mind could in fact have arisen from a mindless process of natural selection. Part philosophical whodunnit, part bold scientific conjecture, this landmark work enlarges themes that have sustained Dennett's legendary career at the forefront of philosophical thought.
