Inside the mind of the octopus
Only recently have scientists accorded chimpanzees, so closely related to humans we can share blood transfusions, the dignity of having a mind. But now, increasingly, researchers who study octopuses are convinced that these boneless, alien animals-creatures whose ancestors diverged from the lineage that would lead to ours roughly 500 to 700 million years ago-have developed intelligence, emotions, and individual personalities. Their findings are challenging our understanding of consciousness itself.

For nuclear security beyond Seoul, eradicate land-based 'doomsday' missiles
