Hofstadter entwickelt aus den Bereichen Logik, Molekularbiologie, Kunst, Computertechnik, Teilchenphysik und Philosophie ein gigantisches Mosaik, einen virtuos arrangierten Blick auf die Welt unter dem Winkel der mathematischen Logik. Dabei besticht er durch seine sachliche klare Darstellung, gepaart mit Amüsement und Witz. Trotz des schwierigen Themas sind keine Vorkenntnisse gefordert, die einzige Voraussetzung ist waches und geduldiges Interesse.
A metaphorical fugue on minds and machines in the spirit of Lewis Carroll
Douglas Hofstadter's book is concerned directly with the nature of maps" or links between formal systems. However, according to Hofstadter, the formal system that underlies all mental activity transcends the system that supports it. If life can grow out of the formal chemical substrate of the cell, if consciousness can emerge out of a formal system of firing neurons, then so too will computers attain human intelligence. Gödel, Escher, Bach is a wonderful exploration of fascinating ideas at the heart of cognitive science: meaning, reduction, recursion, and much more.
