Krátky popis
Human reasoning is remarkably shallow - in fact, our thinking and
justifications just scratch the surface of the true complexity of
the issues we deal with. The ability to think may still be the
greatest wonder in the world (and beyond), but the way that
individuals think is less than ideal. In The Knowledge Illusion,
Sloman and Fernbach show that our intelligence resides not in
individual brains but in the collective mind. To function,
individuals rely not only on knowledge that is stored within our
skulls but also on knowledge stored elsewhere, be it in our bodies,
in the environment or especially in other people. Put together,
human thought is incredibly impressive, but at its deepest level it
never belongs to any individual alone. And yet the mind supports
the most sublime, incredible phenomenon of all: consciousness. How
can any of this be possible with a mind that is so imperfect? This
is one of the key challenges confronted in this book. The Knowledge
Illusion ties together established scientific facts whilst also
considering what the mind is for. Understanding why the mind is as
it is, and what it is for, will show why we need to consider it as
extending beyond our skulls, why we should think about 'the mind'
as far more than an extension of the brain but as an emergence from
multiple brains interacting. Simply put, individuals know
relatively little, but the human hive that emerges when people work
together knows a lot.
