One of the world’s leading philosophers offers aspiring thinkers his personal trove of mind-stretching thought experiments.
Over a storied career, Daniel C. Dennett has engaged questions about science and the workings of the mind. His answers have combined rigorous argument with strong empirical grounding. And a lot of fun.
Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking offers seventy-seven of Dennett’s most successful "imagination-extenders and focus-holders" meant to guide you through some of life’s most treacherous subject matter: evolution, meaning, mind, and free will. With patience and wit, Dennett deftly deploys his thinking tools to gain traction on these thorny issues while offering readers insight into how and why each tool was built.
Alongside well-known favorites like Occam’s Razor and reductio ad absurdum lie thrilling descriptions of Dennett’s own creations: Trapped in the Robot Control Room, Beware of the Prime Mammal, and The Wandering Two-Bitser. Ranging across disciplines as diverse as psychology, biology, computer science, and physics, Dennett’s tools embrace in equal measure light-heartedness and accessibility as they welcome uninitiated and seasoned readers alike. As always, his goal remains to teach you how to "think reliably and even gracefully about really hard questions."
A sweeping work of intellectual seriousness that’s also studded with impish delights, Intuition Pumps offers intrepid thinkers—in all walks of life—delicious opportunities to explore their pet ideas with new powers.

这书知道了有一两年了,买之前反复看过书评但是十分不理解为何评论结果差别如此大。直到我自己看了书。 所有的序都没有看,作者自己写的前言大概看了一点,然后从第一部分看起,没想到的是最后我还是很快回到了这里---因为别的部分真的看不懂啊。 所以本书评只针对第一部分,毕... (展开)> 更多书评 37篇

一开始读的挺痛苦,后面逐渐讲图灵机、人工智能、进化论、自私的基因、意识等话题,就慢慢轻松起来,越读越有意思。以后大概不会有纯粹的哲学家了吧?连意识这宇宙中最神秘的现象都居然快能被理解了。

进化论和哲学家两个章节,让我备受鼓动。忙中偷闲看完了,这三个stances的分析,对我个人比较关键。

对于各类思考形式工具的讲述很有意思,最近总是做很多思考,脑力运转也是有限额可以隐形灵活变换的,后面空格一段时间之后可以翻翻国语版

关于用来思考心灵和思维的哲学工具,需要基础知识才能理解。略过了大部分后面内容
