«La conciencia contada por un sapiens a un neandertal» is the essay by Millás and Arsuaga, published by Alfaguara in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
In this dialogue between the sapiens and the neanderthal, Millás and Arsuaga tackle the great mystery of the human brain. They reflect on identity, memory and natural and artificial intelligence, and on how the consciousness that distinguishes humans from other species might have emerged, all with humor and wisdom.
Third title in the series «De un sapiens a un neandertal», after «La vida contada por un sapiens a un neandertal» and «La muerte contada por un sapiens a un neandertal».
Recommended for those who enjoyed the previous dialogues between the sapiens and the neanderthal and for those curious about science and philosophy.
