520 |a The Recursive Mind challenges the commonly held notion that language is what makes us uniquely human. In this compelling book, Michael Corballis argues that what distinguishes us in the animal kingdom is our capacity for recursion: the ability to embed our thoughts within other thoughts.

It also gives us the power of mental "time travel"--The ability to insert past experiences, or imagined future one.
