Mind of Society by Yvon Provencal

From a Fruitful Analogy of Minsky to a Prodigious Idea of Teilhard de Chardin

The ideas of theoretician Marvin Minsky and philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin are brought together in a work in which Minsky's theory of "society of the mind" is inverted into the author's theory of the "mind of society," giving a new and firm basis to the Teilhardian idea of Noosphere. Provencal's theory also allows unsuspected transdisciplinary regularities between several scientific domains, including physics, biology, and anthropology. This book aims to show that a very special type of global, planetary consciousness is emerging and to better explain the way in which human ideas constitute a global, auto-organizing system.
