The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness
“Peter is a former Stanford colleague and a brilliant philosopher of science. But this book is an extraordinary excursion into the philosophy of mind – a thorough exploration of a species in which intelligence arose completely independent of the evolutionary line that produced human intelligence... I have recommended this book to scores of people of all backgrounds, and without exception they find it accessible and deeply rewarding.”

“I devoured the Chinese translations of Western classics like Le Deuxième Sexe... The stories lingered in my thoughts long after I read their final words, like alternate realities competing with the one I lived in.”
