benng 's review for:
Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid
by Douglas R. Hofstadter
The most thought-provoking book about artificial intelligence I've ever read, especially because it was written before Kasparov's defeat. Hofstadter's predictions that came true are almost as interesting as the ones that did not.
Read GEB slowly, as later chapters depend on a complete understanding of earlier chapters; I had to read entire chapters multiple times before I could move on.
