Book Synopsis

This is a fascinating introduction to philosophy that will stretch your brain, challenge your problem-solving skillsand leave you totally weirded out. In this book we'll attempt to answer questions such as

Are you in a video game right now?
If your body is constantly changing, are you still you?
Would you rather be a happy pig or an unhappy human?

If these questions sound weird to you, well, it's only going to get weirder from here. By the end of the book you may be wondering whether you actually exist at all. Which would officially make you a philosopher!

From Plato's cave to Descartes' I think therefore I am, this book will introduce you to some of the weirdest ever philosophical thoughts and encourage you to think up some answers of your own. And it's packed with funny stories and cartoons, as well as silly quizzes that will test your knowledge and tickle your funny bone.

Written by philosophy lecturer Dr Brandon Robshaw, this mindboggling guide to philosophy is perfect for kids aged 912.
