Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. What makes the human mind so unique? And how did we get this way?This fascinating tale explores the three leaps in our history that made us what we are-and will change how you think about our future.Look around. Clearly, we humans are radically different from the other creatures on this planet. But why? Where are the Bronze Age beavers? The Iron Age iguanas? In Stories, Dice, and Rocks That Think, Byron Reese argues that we owe our special status to our ability to imagine the future and recall the past, escaping the perpetual present that all other living creatures are trapped in.Envisioning human history as the development of a societal superorganism he names Agora, Reese shows us how this escape enabled us to share knowledge on an unprecedented scale, and predict-and eventually master-the future.Thoughtful, witty, and compulsively readable, Reese unravels our history as an intelligent species in three acts-. Act I- Ancient humans undergo "the awakening," developing the cognitive ability to mentally time-travel using language. Act II- In 17th century France, probability theory is born-a science for seeing into the future that we used to build the modern world. Act III- Beginning with the invention of the computer chip, humanity creates machines to gaze into the future with even more precision, overcoming the limits of our brainsA fresh new look at the history and destiny of humanity, readers will come away from Stories, Dice, and Rocks that Think with a new understanding of what they are-not just another animal, but a creature with a mastery of time itself. What makes the human mind so unique? And how did we get this way? This fascinating tale explores the three leaps in our history that made us what we are - and will change how you think about our future.
