Publisher's Synopsis
Many scientists believe humans are simply flesh and blood computers. As computers grow in power they will overtake us and we will end up as their pets! I do not share this view. Humans appear quite different to machines: we display emotional intelligence, we learn by experience, we communicate using body language, and we create. This book will explain the limits imposed by the theories of Alan Turing on the ability of computing machines to automatically create new knowledge and our ability to be creative and display free will.
