The Creative Mind: Myths and Mechanisms, Second Edition - Index of

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I am especially indebted to Gerry Martin, for his many careful comments
on the entire manuscript. I am grateful to the following friends
also, for their helpful comments on various sections (any mistakes are, of
course, my own): Peter Bushell, Andy Clark, Ben Gibbs, Marie Jahoda,
Annette Karmiloff-Smith, Stephen Medcalfe, Ruth Raider, Aaron
Sloman, Paul Wellings, and Peter Williams.
Alison Mudd prepared the printed versions of the text, and Jacqueline
Korn advised me in difficult circumstances: I thank them both. Part of
the book was written during a sabbatical year granted by the University
of Sussex.
Laurence Lerner kindly allowed me to reprint two of his poems from
A.R.T.H.U.R.: The Life and Opinions of a Digital Computer (published by
Harvester Press). A few brief passages in the text are partly based on
other work of mine: the sections on betrayal and the detective novelist (in
Chapter 7) on my Artificial Intelligence and Natural Man; the discussions of
BORIS (Chapter 7) and the brain-stuff argument and Chinese Room
(Chapter 11) on my Computer Models of Mind: Computational Approaches in
Theoretical Psychology; the remarks on describing noughts-and-crosses
(Chapter 7) on Minds and Mechanisms: Philosophical Psychology and Computational
Models; and the story of the compass (Chapter 11) on my paper
‘Wonder and Understanding’ published in Zygon, 1985.
