Isaac Asimov, in Information Week, described this work as "270 brilliantly original essays on ...how the mind works." This book tries to explain how the mind works. The Society of Mind is a construct in which each mind is made up of many smaller processes, which Minsky called agents. Each mental agent by itself can only do some simple thing that needs no mind or thought at all. Yet when these agents join other agents in societies--in certain very special ways--this leads to true intelligence. Marvin Lee Minsky (August 9, 1927 - January 24, 2016) was an American cognitive scientist in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), co-founder of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AI laboratory, and author of several texts on AI and philosophy. In the early 1970s, at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab, Minsky and Papert started developing what came to be called the Society of Mind theory. The theory attempts to explain how what we call intelligence could be a product of the interaction of non-intelligent parts.

ISBN10: 0671657135, ISBN13: 9780671657130, [publisher: Simon & Schuster, New York] Softcover Paperback. Marvin Minsky -- one of the fathers of computer science and cofounder of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT -- gives a revolutionary answer to the age-old question: "How does the mind work?" Minsky brilliantly portrays the mind as a "society" of tiny components that are themselves mindless. Mirroring his theory, Minsky boldly casts The Society of Mind as an intellectual puzzle whose pieces are assembled along the way. Each chapter -- on a self-contained page -- corresponds to a piece in the puzzle. As the pages turn, a unified theory of the mind emerges, like a mosaic. Ingenious, amusing, and easy to read, The Society of Mind is an adventure in imagination. Describing the mind as a "society" that arises out of ever-smaller, mindless agents, each chapter corresponds to a single puzzle piece and a unified theory of the mind emerges before the eyes. Illustrated. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
