Description: "Some of the most time-honored questions in philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience center on the uniqueness of the human mind.  How do we think?  What makes us so different from all the other animals on planet earth?  What was the process that created the human mind?  Is this process unique or can it be repeated on other planets?  The book 'On the origin of the human mind' attempts to provide an answer to these questions"--Book jacket.
