Sinossi
In Intuition Pumps, Daniel Dennett, uno dei principali filosofi del mondo e autore di Consciousness Explained e Freedom Evolves, offre agli aspiranti pensatori il suo tesoro personale di esperimenti mentali che stimolano la mentePensare è difficile. Alcuni di noi possono essere dei geni naturali; altri sono dotati di riserve di forza di volontà. Poi ci sono gli altri: non prodigi e poco tempo a disposizione, ma che aspirano comunque a comprendere il mondo. Cosa possiamo fare? Daniel Dennett, uno dei pensatori più originali del mondo, rivela una raccolta dei suoi strumenti di pensiero preferiti, o "pompe di intuizione". Dal rasoio di Occam al beneficio degli errori, dalla regola del 90% all'evitare le "deepitites", questa guida divertente ti consentirà di affrontare le domande più fondamentali della vita (evoluzione, significato, coscienza e libero arbitrio) e ti insegnerà a pensare in modo veramente indipendente e creativo.Daniel Dennett è uno dei pensatori più originali e provocatori del mondo. Un brillante polemista e filosofo, è famoso per aver sfidato ortodossie inesaminate. I suoi libri includono Brainstorms, Brainchildren, Elbow Room, Consciousness Explained, Darwin's Dangerous Idea e Freedom Evolves. Vive a North Andover, Massachusetts. "Uno dei pensatori più originali e provocatori del mondo" Daily Telegraph "Una lezione magistrale" Guardian "Intelligenza, intuito e talento... Non ce ne sono di più grandi di Daniel Dennett" Julian Baggini, Guardian "La cassetta degli attrezzi di un filosofo per la mente meditativa" Melvin Konner, Nature "Ti divertirai e sarai stimolato da esso" Steven Rose, Guardian "Un vivace manuale sulle risposte radicali che il signor Dennett ha elaborato alle grandi domande nei suoi quasi cinque decenni di filosofia" Jennifer Schuessler, The New York Times "Il filosofo più importante e divertente d'America" Observer
