Why do people enjoy watching scary movies? Should we bet on the existence of God? Why is pleasure better than pain? And when is a duck not a duck?Mini Philosophy is a fascinating journey into what some of the greatest minds of the last 2,500 years have to say about the big questions in life, and why they are relevant to us today.Covering everything from Sun Tzu's strategy for winning at board games to Freud's insights into our 'death drive'; why De Beauvoir believed the mothering instinct is a myth to why Schopenhauer probably wasn't much fun at parties, these mini-meditations will expand your mind (and bend it too). von Thomson, Jonny

Über den Autor
Jonny Thomson teaches philosophy in Oxford. He runs a popular Instagram account and website called Mini Philosophy, the result of his conversations with students and a somewhat masochistic obsession with reading dense philosophical works.Although Jonny centres his work on philosophy, he loves to write about all manner of subjects. Under the increasingly strained title of his 'philosophy' blog, he has turned his hand to the origins of life, linguistics, developmental psychology, time travel paradoxes, psychoanalysis and thematic explorations of classic novels and poetry.
