Confabulation theory offers the first complete detailed
explanation of the mechanism of cognition, i.e., thinking, an
essential information processing capability of all enbrained Earth
animals (bees, octopi, trout, ravens, humans, et al.).
Concentrating on the human case, this book offers an hypothesis for
the neuronal implementation of cognition, and explores the
mathematics and methods of application of its mechanism. Thinking
turns out to be starkly alien in comparison with all known
technological approaches to information processing. While probably
not yet scientifically testable, confabulation theory seems
consistent with the facts of neuroscience. Beyond science, any
complete detailed explanation of cognition can be investigated by
applying it technologically. Multiple experiments of this nature
are described in this book in complete detail. The results suggest
that confabulation theory can provide the universal platform for
building intelligent machines. In short, this book explains how
thinking works and establishes the foundation for building machines
that think.
Because of the theory s implications for philosophy, education,
medicine, anthropology and social science, this book will also be
of interest to scientists in those domains."
