"The Quantum Brain is an adventure in the science of ideas. It is the first book on the brain that combines a grasp of the physics of the microcosm and the technologies of artificial intelligence, neural networks, and self-organizing systems, with a recognition of the transcendant properties that define the mind and differentiate it from matter. Although the subject is inherently difficult and novel, Jeffrey Satinover is an inspired guide through the fertile areas of convergence among the pivotal sciences of the age. From such insights will emerge both new technologies and new philosophies and theologies for the Twenty First Century.
The Quantum Brain is our book of the month for April 200"
--George Guilder, Editor, The Guilder Technology Report

"I wish I had written this visionary book."
--Prof. Hugo de Garis, Head, Starbrain Project, Starlab's Artificial Brain Project

"A thrilling journey through the world of brain research. The author has set new standards for popular science writing by making arcane topics...easy to follow. A tapestry of insights."
--Jack Tuszynski, Professor of Physics, University of Alberta

"Many authors have written about one or two of the topics covered in The Quantum Brain. Jeffrey Satinover's book is unique in trying to tie everything together."
--Michael E. Kellman, Professor of Theoretical Chemistry, University of Oregon

"Thoroughly researched...and told as a gripping tale, thanks to Dr. Satinover's...gift for the narrative. A marvelous introduction to the most fascinating question the human brain can address: it's own working."
--R. Shankar, Professor of Physics and Applied Physics, Yale University

"The Quantum Brain is the first great book of the 21st Century and the first definitively 21st Century book. It will be read with admiration and amazement."
--George Gilder, author of Telecosm and publisher of the Gilder Technology Report
