A Thousand Brains: A New Theory of Intelligence 

“Jeff Hawkins’ book is that rare beast: A new theory about one of the oldest mysteries, the mystery of intelligence. The book is thoughtful and original, erudite and visionary. A must read for anyone interested in how the next breakthroughs in artificial intelligence will emerge from the recent (and not so recent) discoveries in neuroscience.”―Anthony Zador, professor of neuroscience, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory

“Neuroscience has been exploring the wilderness of the brain for well over a century. With A Thousand Brains, at last we have a map. Jeff Hawkins takes on questions most neuroscientists don’t even dare ask, and finds answers in a new theory that explains now only how we make sense of the world, but how we are deceived. In a world threatened by the disintegration of truth into conspiracy and delusion, everyone should read this remarkable book.”―Henry Markram, Professor, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, founder of the Human Brain Project

“Brilliant….It works the brain in a way that is nothing short of exhilarating.”―Richard Dawkins

“A Thousand Brains takes us on a journey from the evolution of our brain to the extinction of our species. Along the way Hawkins beautifully describes neuroanatomy and landmark discoveries in neuroscience… Hawkins keeps the reader constantly engaged.”―New York Times Book Review
