A Mind So Rare
A Mind So Rare: The Evolution of Human Consciousness is Merlin Donald's interdisciplinary exploration of how human awareness developed through the interaction of the biological brain with language, culture, and shared symbolic systems. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and evolutionary studies, Donald argues that consciousness is a central force in human cognition rather than a minor by-product of the brain.
Published by W. W. Norton & Company in 2001, this illustrated hardcover is the first edition and first printing, with the complete number line present. The volume contains xiv and 371 pages, along with bibliographical references and an index.
This copy is personally inscribed and signed by Merlin Donald on the title page. The inscription is addressed to Virginia and reads “Dear Virginia: Warmest regards,” followed by the author's signature. It is a personalized presentation inscription rather than a flat signature.
Very Good overall, as identified by the seller, with the illustrated dust jacket present. The jacket is now protected in a removable clear plastic cover. The photographed interior spread is clean and legible and demonstrates the book's black-and-white illustrations; this representative page view should not be taken as a claim that every page has been individually inspected.
