“Compelling, and so beautifully written…’The Mind Club’ deftly brings the most up-to-date research about other minds to readers of all backgrounds. It may cause you to think differently about crime and punishment, about business transactions and health care, and even about the upcoming elections. Things might just start looking up.”–The Wall Street Journal

From dogs to gods, the science of understanding mysterious minds—including your own.

Nothing seems more real than the minds of other people. When you consider what your boss is thinking or whether your spouse is happy, you are admitting them into the "mind club." It’s easy to assume other humans can think and feel, but what about a cow, a computer, a corporation? What kinds of mind do they have? Daniel M. Wegner and Kurt Gray are award-winning psychologists who have discovered that minds—while incredibly important—are a matter of perception. Their research opens a trove of new findings, with insights into human behavior that are fascinating, frightening and funny.
The Mind Club explains why we love some animals and eat others, why people debate the existence of God so intensely, how good people can be so cruel, and why robots make such poor lovers. By investigating the mind perception of extraordinary targets—animals, machines, comatose people, god—Wegner and Gray explain what it means to have a mind, and why it matters so much.
Fusing cutting-edge research and personal anecdotes, The Mind Club explores the moral dimensions of mind perception with wit and compassion, revealing the surprisingly simple basis for what compels us to love and hate, to harm and to protect.

Great book. A bit of a slow starter do soldier on with it

Avaliado no Reino Unido em 30 de dezembro de 2016

This book is really a very interesting read. One reviewer commented on the fact it is about perception of mind rather than mind itself, and this is true but it doesn't distract from the intellectual value of this book. It states a series of propositions, which sometimes seem obvious (but only when you have heard them) and in general proves them using some interesting experiments. On the other hand it also offers some interesting counter-intuitive propositions and generally shows how these have been validated. For example people often perceive dead people as having more mind than people in a coma. It also touches on perception elements which drive religion and perception of opposing groups. This is interesting in understanding others. Overall i think it is a great book, although i think it should be badged as another reviewer suggested as a treatment of mind perception.

A really interesting read. What does and what doesn't have a mind? How about the dead?

An indepth analysis of minds

Avaliado na Índia em 19 de agosto de 2016

A well researched book backed with scientific proof, deciphers the inscrutable behaviour of the mankind,animals and machines. Easily comprehendible even by a neophyte but occasionally demand a lesser degree of expertise in psychology.
