I have heard from my teacher who is abroad now, that he have read a book written by Roger Penrose title "The shadow of mind". I looked for it in our public library but didn't find it.

Have anyone of you read it?
What is this book all about?
Physics or Mind?

Will anyone discuss about it ???

I found the following at the electronic journal Psyche (http://psyche.cs.monash.edu.au/)'s site: Shadows of the Mind (http://psyche.cs.monash.edu.au/psyche-index-v2.html#som). Does that help at all?

The book is a sequal to "The Emperor's New Mind" which you should read first, if you are more interested in Mind than Physics. If you are are more interested in Physics than Mind then Penrose has just pubhlished a new book called "The Road to Reality", check out links and reviews at:
