Margaret A. Boden's Artificial Intelligence and Natural Man presents a sweeping and rigorous examination of artificial intelligence not merely as a technological phenomenon, but as a profound lens through which to re-examine human psychology, cognition, and consciousness. Drawing on an extraordinary breadth of disciplines — from cognitive science and linguistics to philosophy and neuroscience — Boden argues that AI programs are not just tools, but powerful theoretical models that illuminate the very processes by which the human mind perceives, reasons, and creates.\n\nThis landmark second edition, expanded to incorporate the significant advances of the intervening years, stands as one of the most authoritative and intellectually ambitious works in the philosophy of mind and cognitive science. Boden's prose is precise yet accessible, guiding both the specialist and the informed general reader through complex territory with remarkable clarity. She challenges the reader to reconsider long-held assumptions about intelligence, creativity, and what separates the natural from the artificial — a question that, decades after its first publication, resonates now more urgently than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203340968155,"sku":"2026200013518-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f0e8ecff-fdd0-4c50-bc95-94425fde40ac.png?v=1788147873","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013518-secondhand-artificial-intelligence-and-natural-man","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
