One of the world’s leading philosophers offers aspiring thinkers his personal trove of mind-stretching thought experiments.
Over a storied career, Daniel C. Dennett has engaged questions about science and the workings of the mind. His answers have combined rigorous argument with strong empirical grounding. And a lot of fun.
Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking offers seventy-seven of Dennett’s most successful "imagination-extenders and focus-holders" meant to guide you through some of life’s most treacherous subject matter: evolution, meaning, mind, and free will. With patience and wit, Dennett deftly deploys his thinking tools to gain traction on these thorny issues while offering readers insight into how and why each tool was built.
Alongside well-known favorites like Occam’s Razor and reductio ad absurdum lie thrilling descriptions of Dennett’s own creations: Trapped in the Robot Control Room, Beware of the Prime Mammal, and The Wandering Two-Bitser. Ranging across disciplines as diverse as psychology, biology, computer science, and physics, Dennett’s tools embrace in equal measure light-heartedness and accessibility as they welcome uninitiated and seasoned readers alike. As always, his goal remains to teach you how to "think reliably and even gracefully about really hard questions."
A sweeping work of intellectual seriousness that’s also studded with impish delights, Intuition Pumps offers intrepid thinkers—in all walks of life—delicious opportunities to explore their pet ideas with new powers.

評分一、自由意志是幻觉 我看到万维刚解读《行为》的时候，介绍了一个观点，即：当前科学观点认为，人的自由意志是幻觉。他举例如下。 设想一个场景：你站在一个旋钮面前，可以拨到A和B两个档位。 场景一：我说拨到哪个档，你就拨到哪个档。那么你的行为是被我操控的，那么你不具有...
評分直觉泵是作者发明的名词，实际含义就是常说的思想实验。 作者做过科学家，目前是哲学教授，是“新无神论四大骑士”之一。书中主要内容是作者的各种思想实验，其中很多可以算是开脑洞型的，也有一些作者说的思考工具，这其中有不少是辩论中常见的谬误的模式，当然作者也讲了他识...
評分能感觉到作者的幽默，他用尽可能通俗的语言向人们介绍一个个“直觉泵”。 直觉泵是作者发明的名词，含义就是常说的思想实验。这一个个实验引人思考。 然而，没看懂。“得到”的万维钢老师、王烁老师都是强烈推荐，他们讲了“ 批评他人的正确方式 ”、“亿年机器人”等几个“直...

评分Dan是個有趣的人，是個囉嗦的人
评分集五十年之大成於一冊，就隻能浮光略影瞭。
评分評丹尼特對感質（qualia）的取消論：在丹尼特的寫作中有一股顯流和一股潛流。錶麵上他是在批判像內格爾、Jackson這樣的人的實在論的感質論，深層的目標是要解構他心目中的現象學，即“基於第一人稱的經驗展開的哲學”。對於前一個任務，他是比較成功的，關鍵在於引入瞭自我意識中當下的知識和對過去的記憶都不可作為真實性的基準這一洞見。由此，對經驗的第一人稱描述就和第三人稱描述一樣是可錯的，意識既不對自己完全透明，也不對他人完全封閉。但這一結論在多大程度上是對現象學的反駁，這是另一個問題。現象學本就沒有預設實在論層麵上的私人經驗，它反對任何以“上帝之眼”設定的實在性；我們之所以有實在感，正是因為我們的記憶內容可以很方便地設為基準——與丹尼特所說不同，我們的記憶在某種意義上是確鑿的，因為技術設定其如此。
评分未能早讀到這本書，遺憾。。。
