Brilliant' Guardian Fascinating & often delightful' The Times SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2017 ROYAL SOCIETY SCIENCE BOOK PRIZE What if intelligent life on Earth evolved not once but twice? The octopus is the closest we will come to meeting an intelligent alien What can we learn from the encounter? In Other Minds Peter Godfrey-Smith a distinguished philosopher of science & a skilled scuba diver tells a bold new story of how nature became aware of itself
- a story that largely occurs in the ocean where animals first appeared Tracking the mind's fitful development from unruly clumps of seaborne cells to the first evolved nervous systems in ancient relatives of jellyfish he explores the incredible evolutionary journey of the cephalopods which began as inconspicuous molluscs who would later abandon their shells to rise above the ocean floor searching for prey & acquiring the greater intelligence needed to do so
- a journey completely independent from the route that mammals & birds would later take But what kind of intelligence do cephalopods possess? How did the octopus a solitary creature with little social life become so smart? What is it like to have eight tentacles that are so packed with neurons that they virtually think for themselves'? By tracing the question of inner life back to its roots & comparing human beings with our most remarkable animal relatives Godfrey-Smith casts crucial new light on the octopus mind

Shortlisted for the Orwell Prize 2016 We all depend on the finance sector We need it to store our money manage our payments finance housing stock restore infrastructure fund retirement & support new business But these roles comprise only a tiny sliver of the sector's activity the vast majority of lending is within the finance sector So what is it all for? What is the purpose of this activity? & why is it so profitable? John Kay a distinguished economist with wide experience of the financial sector argues that the industry's perceived profitability is partly illusory & partly an appropriation of wealth created elsewhere
- of other people's money The financial sector he shows has grown too large detached itself from ordinary business & everyday life & has become an industry that mostly trades with itself talks to itself & judges itself by reference to standards which it has itself generated & the outside world has itself adopted those standards bailing out financial institutions that have failed all of us through greed & mismanagement We need finance but today we have far too much of a good thing In Other People's Money John Kay shows in his inimitable style what has gone wrong in the dark heart of finance
