laturz 's review for:
Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid
by Douglas R. Hofstadter
After reading 500 pages of this 750 page book in over 2 months I decided to put it down. Although initially interesting, it lost my attention. Essentially the author is theorizing on how consciousness arises. He then tries to use these theories to show how we could give consciousness to machines. I I think anyone who has a more math oriented brain, or who knows something about computer programming would find this book interesting.
