为什么值得读
- 生动展现形式逻辑的美感以及其内在极限
- 跨界串联数学、计算机科学、哲学与意识之谜
- 为读者打下扎实而富有启发性的数学思维底子
荣获Pulitzer Prize。这是一部秉承Lewis Carroll精神、探讨心灵与机器的隐喻赋格。Douglas Hofstadter的著作直接关注形式系统之间“映射”或关联的本质。然而，在Hofstadter看来，作为一切心智活动基础的形式系统，超越了支撑它的系统本身。如果生命能从细胞的形式化化学基质中孕育，如果意识能从神经元放电的形式系统中涌现，那么计算机也终将获得人类智能。Gödel, Escher, Bach是一部对引人入胜的构想进行绝妙探索的杰作。

虽然跟开发没有直接关系，但我有幸读过最震撼的一本书是 Douglas Hofstadter 的《Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid》（也称 GEB）。 很难确切解释它到底是讲什么的，但它涵盖了数学、计算机科学、哲学和意识等方面的思想与概念。所有内容都讲解得极为透彻有趣。我
Although not directly development related. The most impressive book I've had the pleasure of reading is "Gödel Escher Bach: An eternal golden braid" (also known as GEB) from Douglas Hofstadter. It's hard to explain what it is about exactly, but it contains ideas and concepts from mathematics, computer science, philosophy and conscience. All of it is explained in very clear and interesting way. I
《Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid》 带我领略了逻辑之美及其局限性，还为我奠定了扎实的数学思维基础。 专业建议（Pro tip）：读到巴赫的时候，不妨试着一边听巴赫的曲子。
Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid Introduced me to the beauty of logic and its limits. Also gave me solid mathematical thinking foundations. Pro tip: Try listening to Bach while you read about Bach.

……在自然主义世界观下获得精神体验的可能性。如今公开讨论的很多无神论都缺乏对宗教体验的共情。-Martin Gardner 的文章 -Douglas Hofstadter 的《Godel, Escher, Bach》和《Le Ton Beau De Marot》——对于那些喜欢整天琢磨逻辑与语言的人（说的就是你们，程序员）来说，这两本书简直就是浪漫通俗读物——明知不该沉迷，它们却……

必须强烈推荐 Douglas Hofstadter 的《Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid》[1]。 我知道大多数 HN 网友对这本书都不陌生，但如果你还没读过，我强烈建议你搞一本读读。很多人会说它“改变了自己看待一切的方式”，却不细说到底怎么改变的，那我就来聊聊它是如何改变我的。我一直是个在细节上极度吹毛求疵
Mandatory recommendation for Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid [1] by Douglas Hofstadter. Now I know most HNers are no stranger to this book, but if you haven't read it I encourage you to pick up a copy. A lot of people will say that it "changed the way they think about everything" without going into much more detail, so I'll just tell you how it did so for me. I've always been an anal
