   If you are looking for a book for an introduction, I would suggest Mindware by Andy Clark is pretty reasonable. Pub 2014; ISBN: 9780199828159

   Not insightful. Offers a 60 year old argument about symbol systems and the need for more computational power (alone).

   I suggest reading Andy Clark's Mindware for a critical view of various approaches to this problem.

   My major was Cognitive Science, so I always had to read excerpts of this book as part of course requirement, but never finished the whole thing.

   Now I read it by jumping between pages and hoping the individual sentences/paragraphs could spark my own thought process (this is how I read most of the time nowadays).

   For a much more concise overview on the similar subject matters, checkout this book by Andy Clark http://www.amazon.com/Mindware-Introduction-Philosophy-Cogni...
