Brain, Mind and Internet: A Deep History and Future [Hardcover]

This essay places the emerging brain-Internet interface within a broad historical context: that the Internet represents merely the next stage in a very long history of human cognition whereby the brain couples with symbolic technologies. Understanding this 'deep history' provides a way to imagine the future of brain-Internet cognition.Acknowledgements Preface 1. Extend 2. Reconfigure 3. Query 4. Interface 5.
