By Douglas hofstadter? I’m wondering what people opinions are on the book as I finished it after a few months of reading it and it was quite a journey.

I had issues regarding the mathematics equations for a big part and honestly skipped over a lot of them but didn’t find them to be needed to understand the main points of the book but maybe someone can clue me into that.

I’m more interested in if it changed anyones preconceived notions or beliefs they once held.

    I’m glad you said you were able to skip over some of the mathematical parts and still understand the rest of the book, I read about 100 pages like a year ago and loved it but was getting frustrated with my inability to understand some of these parts, I was spending 20 minutes on some pages just trying to make sense of them before moving on because I really wanted to understand. I think I’ll give it another try and out less pressure on myself.
