The Book of Paradoxes

Is the sentence "This sentence in quotation marks is false" false?

Can a hotel with an infinite number of rooms, but which is entirely full, accept more guests?

How can we react emotionally to fictional works, even though we know that the situations that move us in them are not real?

And which came first in that well-known chicken and egg dilemma?

In The Book of Paradoxes, Michael Clark examines the most deadly of the non-fatal contradictions. The eighty-three paradoxes presented in the book include pure logical and mathematical dilemmas, as well as moral, artistic, and political problems. Zeno's 2,500-year-old arrow, which has traversed ages and lodged itself in our time, making movement impossible, and the 40-year-old Newcomb's Problem, which influences the shaping of today's political-economic decisions, both find their place in The Book of Paradoxes. "Pure" thinkers of logic and philosophy history such as Zeno, Galileo, Lewis Carroll, and Bertrand Russell challenge logic and life's claim to transcend logic with this collection.
