Books like The Emperor's New Mind by Roger Penrose

Marvin Minsky presents an interconnected framework that explains human cognition and its implications for artificial intelligence.

Un compendio de ciencia y matemáticas que reúne, en un solo volumen, la comprensión contemporánea del universo, la física, la cosmología y las leyes fundamentales que lo gobiernan.

A collection of mathematically enriched essays by Douglas Hofstadter, weaving topics such as artificial intelligence, creativity, music, self-reference, and playful puzzles into a cohesive exploration of mind and mathematics.

The story of neuroscience

Hector Levesque explores how AI can illuminate the mind by focusing on commonsense intelligence and proposing the Winograd Schema Test as a true measure of real artificial intelligence.

In a wide-ranging series of conversations Jean-Pierre Changeux and Alain Connes discuss the development of the human brain as a function of natural selection and variation, debate the character of human intelligence (and the obstacles that stand in the way of simulating, modeling, or actually reproducing it by mechanical means), dispute the reasons for the "unreasonable effectiveness" of mathematics in explaining the physical world, and differ over the sources of mathematical creativity. In an epilogue they go on to inquire into the relation of mathematics and science to ethics, asking whether a code of human morality consistent with what is known about the structure and function of the human brain can be devised, and whether the "enlargement of human sympathies" hoped for by Darwin, Kropotkin, and others may be given a natural basis. This vivid record of profound disagreement, and, at the same time, passionate search for mutual understanding, follows in the modern tradition of Poincare, Turing, Hadamard, and von Neumann in probing the limits of human rationality and intellectual possibility. Why order should exist in the world at all - and why it should be comprehensible by human beings - is the question that lies at the heart of these remarkable dialogues.

John R. Searle’s collection of six lectures explores the mind–body problem, artificial intelligence, brain physiology, the mental basis of human action, behavioral prediction, and free will.

Roger Penrose explores the limits of computation, quantum mechanics, and microbiology to argue that consciousness may transcend current scientific understanding.
