"The Book of Minds: How to Understand Ourselves and Other Beings, From Animals to Aliens" by Philip Ball
"Understanding the human mind and how it relates to the world of experience has challenged scientists and philosophers for centuries. How do we even begin to think about ‘minds’ that are not human?
