IS YOUR NEIGHBOUR A ZOMBIE: PHILOSOPHICAL RIDDLES, PARADOXES AND CONUNDRUMS TO STRETCH YOUR MIND

Book ID/图书代码: 04331211B44863

English Summary/英文概要: Philosophers have been devising conundrums and thought experiments to stretch the mind for more than two millennia. The way we try to solve these problems and puzzles can tell us much about ourselves and the way we see the world.

Is Your Neighbour a Zombie? presents dilemmas, conundrums and logic puzzles designed to exercise your mind and expand your way of thinking, while also giving an insight into key concepts in philosophical and psychological ideas. Each problem is presented clearly and wittily, introducing important issues and themes in an easily comprehensible way, and including a discussion of possible solutions and their realworld implications.

From classic logical conundrums and paradoxes, to perceptions of personal identity and group behaviour, Is Your Neighbour a Zombie? will expand your mental horizons, challenge your preconceptions, and introduce you to new ways of thinking.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 從古代難題到現代困境, 通過這些進入形上學和哲學的世界!

本書蒐集14個好玩的哲學腦筋急轉彎,透過這些看似無法解決、卻又讓人忍不住去思考的謎題和邏輯悖論,介紹相關的哲學及心理學概念,同時也探討了這些難題可能的解決辦法以及它們在現實世界中真正的含義。

從經典邏輯難題和悖論,到對個人身份和群體行為的感知,本書將會拓展你的視野,挑戰你的先入之見,同時帶給你全新的思考方式。 (Zoe)
