'A remarkably bold fusion of ideas from psychoanalysis, psychology
and the frontiers of theoretical neuroscience that takes aim at the
biggest question there is. Solms will challenge your most basic
beliefs.' - Matthew Cobb
'This treatment of consciousness and artificial sentience should be
taken very seriously.' - Karl J. Friston
'Solms' vital work has never ignored the lived, felt experience of
human beings. His ideas look a lot like the future to me.' - Siri
