Know about the book -

Supersizing the Mind is written by Andy Clark and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0199831041 (ISBN 10) and 9780199831043 (ISBN 13).

Drawing upon recent work in psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, robotics, human-computer systems, and beyond, Supersizing the Mind offers both a tour of the emerging cognitive landscape and a sustained argument in favor of a conception of mind that is extended rather than "brain-bound." The importance of this new perspective is profound. If our minds themselves can include aspects of our social and physical environments, then the kinds of social and physical environments we create can reconfigure our minds and our capacity for thought and reason.
