L'io e il suo cervello by Karl Popper
Non si finisce mai di leggere questi tre volumi ...
My absolute highligh of this book is the conclusion of the chapter P6 summary on page 210 by Karl Popper "... With the emergence of World3, selection need no longer be violent: we can eliminate false theories by non-violent criticism. Non-violent cultural evolution is not just a utopian dream; it is, rather, a possible result of the emergence of mind through natural selection."
