具體描述
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.

評分逻辑的胜利在于它让人相信很多反直觉的东西是正确的，而我们的引以为傲的进步总是在反直觉的路线是越走越远，毫无疑问，逻辑带来的反直觉会吞噬直觉所占领的经典理论的领地。从科学理论到艺术理论，或者说从数学体系到物理理论，再到绘画创作，我们接受了那些丑陋但认同的规则...

Such a nice and revealling book.
评分勉強算讀完，由於數學太差導緻一堆XXX定理都完全不能明白是在說什麼。。不過用數學物理經濟學的方法論來解釋哲學問題這個想法我很喜歡。。好吧，文科生隻配說想法很喜歡。。

评分很快的看過前麵的幾章，感覺論證很牽強，放棄
