Comment on Ask HN: Do you believe that mind and brain are separate entities?

Comments

Brain is hardware. Mind software that runs on brain. None has any use without the other. (personal unscientific view)

I would like to read about this where to begin?

The reason I said it's one is from the perspective that the software is a combination of spiking potentials and chemical reactions. If you haven't read "On Intelligence" by Jeff Hawkins, you should. Though his results/theory may not even be close to the real explanation behind our brain, it sets a good stage for the topic.
