Default Re: philosophy book

I hate this book so goddamn much. (have to read it for school) Easy to read, but so, so painful when you read about this arrogant 15-year old chick. Jostein Gardner definitely has a daughter....

The dialogue is painful, the ending is sort of clever, but actually reading the nonphilosphy sections to get to that ending is too much for me.

The actual philosphy sections are good, though. Just make sure to read it like an encyclopedia, and not like a book.
