Homo Sapiens: The Simulating Mind

The book Simulating Minds, The Philosophy, Psychology, and Neuroscience of Mindreading, by Alvin I. Goldman discusses aspects of the probably unique capability of Homo Sapiens among animal species to mindread or simulate other peoples minds in social interaction. Minds reading other minds is what is going on all day long when we play our social and professional games.

This connects to my knols Soul as Simulation of Body, Simulations by Wittgenstein,

Simulation Technology, Return of Descartes and  Hyperreality in Physics

and the blog post Reality of the Virtual and Virtual Reality.
