Real thinking isn't about speculating from your armchair - you've got to engage with the outside world and do some experimenting. 101 Thought Experiments, the latest book from the bestselling author Martin Cohen, will jump start your grey matter and sharpen up your philosophical skills.
Using famous experiments, from philosophy and psychology to sex, art and education, ranging from Aristotle to Piaget, and mind-stretching new ones such as 'The Three Favourite Animals' and 'The War of the Ghosts', 101 Thought Experiments takes you on a thrilling tour of fun and imaginative scenarios, each followed by a discussion. These range from memory, language games and robots to dreams, ESP, the environment and immortality. With a scenario for everyone, 101 Thought Experiments will delight, instruct and entertain in equal measure.
