Paradoxes from A to Z, Third edition is the essential guide to
paradoxes, and takes the reader on a lively tour of puzzles that
have taxed thinkers from Zeno to Galileo, and Lewis Carroll to
Bertrand Russell. Michael Clark uncovers an array of conundrums,
such as Achilles and the Tortoise, Theseus' Ship, and the
Prisoner's Dilemma, taking in subjects as diverse as knowledge,
science, art and politics. Clark discusses each paradox in
non-technical terms, considering its significance and looking at
likely solutions. This third edition is revised throughout, and
adds nine new paradoxes that have important bearings in areas such
as law, logic, ethics and probability. Paradoxes from A to Z, Third
edition is an ideal starting point for those interested not just in
philosophical puzzles and conundrums, but anyone seeking to hone
their thinking skills.
