Summary: Witty!
Rating: 5

This book is a collection of anecdotes, discussions and little philosophical dramas. It is an esy read, but some of the ideas are very deep, some are just funny. Anyone with the slightest interest in philosophy whatsoever can and should read this little book. The book adresses epistemology, religion, ethics and logic. Some things are weird and not really related to philosophy but still fascinating.

In his dramas, Smullyan plays with many philosophical schools and positions. On the way he creates some new philosophical schools of thought, which is a lot of fun. Everyone who wants to know what experimental epistemology or materialistic mysticism is should read this book.

Summary: excellent
Rating: 5

This isn't one of Smullyan's books of logic puzzles (those are great too!), but rather contains highly entertaining (and mind-stretching) flights of philosophical fantasy and paradox. If you like Godel, Escher, Bach by Douglas Hofstadter, you'll like this.
