When The Stone Reader (ISBN 978 1 63149 071 2)-a landmark
collection of 133 essays from The New York Times' award-winning
philosophy series-first published, the world urgently needed
insight and wisdom, and for many, the book served as a bulwark of
reason against a rising tide of factless rhetoric, deepfakes and
deception. Now, as we enter our third year of the pandemic and
misinformation continues to run rampant, editors Peter Catapano and
Simon Critchley contend that philosophy in the public sphere is
more important than ever. Featuring essays by philosophers as well
as artists, actors and activists-from Ai Weiwei to Cate Blanchett
and Elena Ferrante-Question Everything tackles the sweeping
questions that have sprung from our moment, including: Is democracy
possible? What is it like to be a woman? Should speech be free?
Altogether, the essays collected here tell a story of truth-seeking
in a time of doubt, shifting reality and change, taking us through
the seeming end of the world-and beyond.
