具體描述
Can God create a stone too heavy for him to lift? Can time have a beginning? Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Riddles, paradoxes, conundrums--for millennia the human mind has found such knotty logical problems both perplexing and irresistible. Now Roy Sorensen offers the first narrative history of paradoxes, a fascinating and eye-opening account that extends from the ancient Greeks, through the Middle Ages, the Enlightenment, and into the twentieth century. When Augustine asked what God was doing before He made the world, he was told: "Preparing hell for people who ask questions like that." A Brief History of the Paradox takes a close look at "questions like that" and the philosophers who have asked them, beginning with the folk riddles that inspired Anaximander to erect the first metaphysical system and ending with such thinkers as Lewis Carroll, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and W.V. Quine. Organized chronologically, the book is divided into twenty-four chapters, each of which pairs a philosopher with a major paradox, allowing for extended consideration and putting a human face on the strategies that have been taken toward these puzzles. Readers get to follow the minds of Zeno, Socrates, Aquinas, Ockham, Pascal, Kant, Hegel, and many other major philosophers deep inside the tangles of paradox, looking for, and sometimes finding, a way out. Filled with illuminating anecdotes and vividly written, A Brief History of the Paradox will appeal to anyone who finds trying to answer unanswerable questions a paradoxically pleasant endeavor.

讀後感
有些句子翻译的很不行，句子结构就不对。书是好书，悖论很迷人，一下子有这么多悖论，兴奋。维特根斯坦的PI故事···············
評分因为中间别的事情多，断断续续读了这么多天，总算把第一遍扫下来了。读的时候还是挺费脑筋的，不停地回顾早被扔到一边的数学方面的知识。看到不少集合论和数理逻辑，后来还出现了图灵的大名，蛮有一种亲切感，呵呵。本人是学计算机的。坦白地说，读得太快，好多地方没仔细看明...
評分这基本上是我读完的耗时最长的一本书，内容本来就够绕的了，加上翻译基本是按英文语序，很多句子要在脑子里绕上几遍才能明白到底说什么，当然，还有一些最后也没绕明白，现在回想起来脑子里还是晕晕的。迄今为止我读的哲学书不多，看这个主要是觉得好玩儿，也不太在乎到底...

評分正如简介中所做的假设，你先假设了上帝能创造一块石头这个条件，又假设了上帝不能搬动这个条件，回头你问上帝能不能创造一块他搬不动的石头，本身就是把上帝‘能’与‘不能’混淆在一起，能不能都让你占了，不悖论才怪。 不把所有事情捋顺，而试图把自己和他人都说晕，这本身就...

最近眼皮腫得厲害呢
评分以悖論作為哲學史的棱鏡。渴盼作者有更多數理方麵的探究。
评分最近眼皮腫得厲害呢
评分:無
评分柏拉圖竟然傳閑話說芝諾和蘇格拉底有一腿？？？ 寫法優秀有趣。
