| Summary, etc. |
These essays, written in the spirit of Goethe's Epimetheus who ""traces the quick deed to the dim realm of form-combining possibilities"", display the depth and breadth of Tallis's fascination with our lives. Whether discussing philosophical ""hardy perennials"" like time, or a mundane artefact like ink, Tallis challenges us to think differently about who we are and why we are. The first part of the book - Analysis - dives into the deep-end to explore some of the big questions in philosophy: perception, knowledge and belief; time; the relationship between mathematics and reality; and probabili. |
