Metazoa: Animal Life and the Birth of the Mind
Peter Godfrey-SmithDaniel Dennett@nescio13 Peter Godfrey-Smith's METAZOA. Beautifully written and full of excellent details on the evolution of minds. I have only a few minor reservations about the tactics he uses to open minds. His view is close to mine and I think we can close the gap thanks to his advances!
