Speculative approaches to consciousness in science fiction

David Ben Leavitt

pp. 395-415

Abstract

Our minds are finite, and yet even in these circumstances of finitude we are surrounded by possibilities that are infinite, and the purpose of human life is to grasp as much as we can out of that infinitude. (Whitehead, 1953, p. 163)
