Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking Audiobook (Free)

More than a storied career, philosopher Daniel C. Dennett provides engaged queries about science as well as the workings of the mind. His answers have combined rigorous debate with solid empirical grounding. And a lot of fun. Within this audiobook, Dennett stocks the “creativity extenders and focus-holders” that he while others have developed for handling life’s most fundamental queries. Along with novel conversations of familiar techniques – Occam’s Razor, reductio advertisement absurdum – Dennett offers cognitive equipment purpose-built for one of the most treacherous subject material: evolution, indicating, mind, and free of charge will. From skyhooks to deepities, the Wandering Two-Bitser as well as the Prime Mammal, Dennett’s genial design persuades as it educates, pointing out pitfalls in quarrels as it difficulties listeners to get others. The result is usually a sweeping work of deep intellectual seriousness that’s also studded with impish delights. Intuition Pushes offers intrepid thinkers – in all walks of lifestyle – delicious opportunities to explore their family pet ideas with fresh powers.
