Editorial Reviews
Review
"Ever  since David Hume declared in the 18th century that  the Self is only a heap of perceptions, the poor  Ego has been in a shaky conditions indeed...Mind and  consciousness becomes dispensable items in our  accounts of reality, ghosts in the bodily  machine...Yet there are indications here and there that the  tide may be tuming...and the appearance of  The Mind's I, edited by Douglas R.  Hofstadter and Daniel C. Dennett, seems a welcome sign  of change."--William Barrett, The  New York Times Book Review
