  2. Comment by mymindonbooks:

    Darby, thanks for the link, I like your page. I’ve posted some reactions to Hofstadter’s book, but not a full-blown review. Also a short post on the ‘strange loop’ concept. I especially appreciated Hofstadter’s non-reductionist argument for working at the conceptual level.
