Steven E. Landsburg is a Professor of Economics at the University of Rochester. He is the author of More Sex Is Safer Sex, The Armchair Economist, Fair Play, two textbooks on economics, and over thirty journal articles in mathematics, economics, and philosophy. He writes the popular "Everyday Economics" column in Slate magazine and has written for Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, and other publications.
In the wake of his enormously popular books The Armchair Economist and More Sex Is Safer Sex , Slate columnist and Economics professor Steven Landsburg uses concepts from mathematics, economics, and physics to address the big questions in philosophy: What is real? What can we know? What is the difference between right and wrong? And how should we live? Landsburg begins with the broadest possible categories from a mathematical analysis of the arguments for the existence of God; to the real meaning of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and the Godel Incompleteness Theorem; to the moral choices we face in the marketplace and the voting booth. Stimulating, illuminating, and always surprising, The Big Questions challenges readers to re-evaluate their most fundamental beliefs and reveals the relationship between the loftiest philosophical quests and our everyday lives.

Such a nice and revealling book.
评分看到豆瓣上的推荐,买来读的。把经济学和数学物理哲学联系起来,很有启发性,一些伦理学上的例子想起来也很有趣。可总体没有想象中得那么 惊艳。
评分太精彩了~!
评分Such a nice and revealling book.
评分用经济学数学和物理学的方式阐述哲学问题。读完发现,相比这几门学科,一般的文科工具在阐述这类“大问题”的时候实在非常没效率。PS:这本书的中译本删改很多,极不推荐。
