One of the world's leading philosophers offers aspiring thinkers his personal trove of mind-stretching thought experiments
Thinking is hard. A few of us may be natural geniuses; others are blessed with reserves of willpower. Then there's the rest of us- not prodigies and short on time, but still aspiring to understand the world. What can we do? Daniel Dennett, one of the world's most original thinkers, reveals a collection of his favourite thinking tools, or 'intuition pumps'. From Occam's Razor to the benefit of mistakes, the 90% rule to avoiding 'deepitites', this entertaining guide will enable you to tackle life's most fundamental questions - evolution, meaning, consciousness and free will - and teach you to think truly independently and creatively.
