Each 3000-word essay examines a question that has eternally perplexed enquiring minds, and provides answers from history's great thinkers.

Simon Blackburn is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Cambridge, Research Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Carolina, and one of the most distinguished philosophers writing today. He is the author of the bestselling books The Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy, Think, Being Good, Lust, Truth: A Guide for the Perplexed and How to Read Hume. He lives in Cambridge.
