The Evolution of Intelligence: Are Humans the Only Animals with Minds?

By James H. Fetzer

James Fetzer explores the nature of consciousness and cognition in human beings and other animals. He addresses the inadequacies of the computational conception and expounds on an alternative theory based on the study of signs and symbols as elements of communicative behavior. Fetzer offers a new theory of intelligence by which machines can be intelligent without possessing minds. This description may be from another edition of this product.
