The Emperor's New Mind
          It has been a week since I bought and started reading "The Emperor's New Mind" by Roger Penrose. And I am still into the 2nd chapter. At this point, I have read about Strong-AI, Chinese Room, Algorithms and Turing machines.
It is pretty convoluted stuff but I hope to finish it somehow. The title was suggested by themanwhowrote.

				 				I just finished the first chapter. Havent had much time to read further. 
But good that you are noting down all the points here. This seems to be a good way to read such books.
btw, do you know that it is difficult to find a book on Israel these days. It seems there exists some kind of regulation on sales of books on Israel. I was curious to check out a book on Moshe Dayan (Israel's first defense minister) and this is what I was told.

				 				I picked up the book after a conversation with the man, but saw that it was not exactly the stuff that I like to unwind with on a lazy Sunday afternoon, so bought some fiction instead.
				
				
			
			
			
				 				I haven't had chance to read any of him yet. Is it difficult to digest?
tmww: I have read Moshe Dayan in Marathi, not sure if you were looking for the same. It would be unfortunate not to get that book.
