The Complete Philosophy Files

by Stephen Law and Daniel Postgate - £9.99  Orion Publishing Co (2012)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781444003345 | ISBN 10: 1444003348

The brilliantly entertaining The Philosophy Files and The Philosophy Files 2 in one omnibus edition.
 
Is there a God, should I eat meat, where does the universe come from, could I live for ever as a robot? These are the big questions readers will be wrestling with in this thoroughly enjoyable book. Dip into any chapter and you will find lively scenarios and dialogues to take you through philosophical puzzles ancient and modern, involving virtual reality, science fiction and a host of characters from this and other planets. The text is interspersed on every page with lively cartoons, and there is a list of philosophical jargon at the end..
 
Stephen Law has a gift for communicating complex ideas. He offers few answers, but his unstuffy, highly personal approach will have the reader thinking and arguing with as much pleasure as he does himself.
