The Undiscovered Mind by John Horgan: How the Human Brain Defies Replication, Medication, and Explanation (Used Paperback, 1999 Edition)
 
The Undiscovered Mind by John Horgan is a sharp, engaging critique of modern efforts to explain the mysteries of consciousness, thought, and the brain. Horgan, a science journalist known for his critical eye, takes readers on a journey through neuroscience, psychiatry, evolutionary psychology, artificial intelligence, and Eastern philosophy—only to conclude that the human mind remains as elusive and mysterious as ever. This is a book for readers who want to go beyond the hype of brain science and question whether we can truly understand what it means to be conscious, self-aware, and human.
