Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness (Peter Godfrey-Smith)

Nitabel

“Um so it turns out that cephalopods have a profoundly different experience of self(?)-perception — one that evolved completely independent of ours (and any other creature with a central nervous system). Implications for evolution, identity, and theories of mind ensue. 🤯 one of the most interesting and surprisingly spiritual books I’ve ever read.”

“The octopus is the closest we will come to meeting an intelligent alien. What can we learn from the encounter?”
