I've Been Thinking How unfair for one man to be blessed with such a torrent of stimulating thoughts. Stimulating is an understatement. ―Rihard Dawkins A memoir by one of the greatest minds of our age, preeminent philosopher and cognitive scientist Daniel C. Dennett.Daniel C. Dennett, preeminent philosopher and cognitive scientist, has spent his career considering the thorniest, most fundamental mysteries of the mind. Do we have free will? What is consciousness and how did it come about? What distinguishes human minds from the minds of animals? Dennett’sanswers have profoundly shaped our age of philosophical thought. In I’veBeen Thinking, he reflects on his amazing career and lifelong scientific fascinations.Dennett’srelentless curiosity has taken him from a childhood in Beirut and the classrooms of Harvard, Oxford, and Tufts, to “Conitive Cruises”on sailboats and the fields and orchards of Maine, and to laboratories and think tanks around the world. Along the way, I’veBeen Thinking provides a master class in the dominant themes of twentieth-century philosophy and cognitive science―inluding language, evolution, logic, religion, and AI―an reveals both the mistakes and breakthroughs that shaped Dennett’stheories.Key to this journey are Dennett’sinterlocutors―Doglas Hofstadter, Marvin Minsky, Willard Van Orman Quine, Gilbert Ryle, Richard Rorty, Thomas Nagel, John Searle, Gerald Edelman, Stephen Jay Gould, Jerry Fodor, Rodney Brooks, and more―whse ideas, even when he disagreed with them, helped to form his convictions about the mind and consciousness. Studded with photographs and told with characteristic warmth, I’veBeen Thinking also instills
the value of life beyond the university, one enriched by sculpture, music, farming, and deep connection to family.Dennett compels us to consider: What do I really think? And what if I’mwrong? This memoir by one of the greatest minds of our time will speak to anyone who seeks to balance a life of the mind with adventure and creativity. 17 photographs
