In this exploration of philosophy, Cohen challenges the reader to think philosophically about everyday dilemmas. Each problem is presented with a separate discussion designed to stimulate hours of lively philosophical debate.


101 Philosophy Problems, Second edition, is a new and fully updated version of the highly successful first edition. In this ever engaging and humorous exploration of philosophy, Martin Cohen challenges the reader to think philosophically about every day dilemmas. Problems such as the 'Hanging Judge', 'The Unexpected exam' and 'The Sentence' paradox give examples of the more familiar type of philosophical riddles, but there are also wholly new problems with which to contend. 'A Nasty Transplant Problem', the 'Three Embryos Problem' come from the new field of medical ethics, whilst 'Deep Thought Speaks' raises issues in Artificial Intelligence. Each problem is presented with a separate discussion designed to stimulate hours of lively philosophical debate. The new edition includes: Many new problems, each with separate discussion; Classic and contemporary problems taken from the media to physics, medical ethics to sport. A fully revised and updated glossary of unfamiliar philosophical terms 101 Philosophy Problems, Second Edition combines wit with philosophical scholarship and is ideal for anyone interested in this exciting and stimulating topic.
