MIND & BEHAVIOR

Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid

by Douglas R. Hofstadter · 1979

★★★★★ 5/5 · ALLO'S PICK
A book about mind, consciousness, and self-reference — threaded through Gödel's incompleteness theorems, Bach's counterpoint, and Escher's paradoxes. Dense, playful, essential.
Allo's take
No book makes you feel more alive to the strangeness of being a mind. Should come with a warning: time will disappear.
