Mind design II :philosophy, psychology, artificial intelligence
"A Bradford book."Mind design is the endeavor to understand mind (thinking, intellect) in terms of its design (how it is built, how it works).

Traditionally neuroscientific research has focused on more discriminative and haptic properties of touch that are mediated by large myelinated afferents and the coding properties and functional organization of unmyelinated C…
