Reviews
"Schwitzgebel's excellent and accessible philosophy in A Theory of Jerks and Other Philosophical Misadventures would be great at parties -- just open up to any random three-page essay, read it aloud, and let the conversation flow."-- PopMatters -- In a sense this book is just the tip of the iceberg of this philosopher's public working through of ideas that really matter or really interest him. What you get, cumulatively, is a glimpse of an incredibly fertile mind. -- FIVE BOOKS --, "A lively, wide-ranging, and original collection of short essays from Eric Schwitzgebel, whose mind seems to fizz with ideas. Highly recommended." - Nigel Warburton, author of A Little History of Philosophy "This book isn't really about jerks; it's about minds in all their quirky glory. Schwitzgebel thinks hard about what it is for flawed creatures such as ourselves to live a good life, about how philosophers may or may not live up to their ideals, and about ways in which consciousness might be stretched to its limits in humans and machines. The book is full of provocative thought experiments and insightful arguments that will make you think about yourself in ways you haven't thought before." - David Chalmers, University Professor of Philosophy and Codirector of the Center for Mind, Brain, and Consciousness, NYU "Consciousness, the multiverse, what it all means ... This book features fifty-eight bite-sized gems from a leading philosopher. Simply put: a joy to read." - Susan Schneider, NASA Chair, Library of Congress, and author of Artificial You: AI and the Future of Your Mind "Eric Schwitzgebel represents an almost extinct philosophical type: a humble, humane, down-to-earth soul, with a knack for thinking out loud and clearly about pretty much anything. Curiosity abounds, as does good humor, and a measured dose of existential anxiety as Schwitzgebel wonders about everything from the nature of space, time, and consciousness, to the possibility that we are not very good at detecting our moral blind spots and our excellences at being jerks. A collection to keep nearby and savor for anyone who likes to think along with a really smart philosopher." - Owen Flanagan, author of Consciousness Reconsidered ,/i> and The Bodhisattva's Brain "Schwitzgebel's short pieces are clever and entertaining, and they fill perfectly the need for a little insight in a chaotic world. These essays should occupy any coffee table for readers wanting bursts of insights wrapped in humor and cleverness. Infuriatingly clever and joyfully observational, these writings mix a comedian's charm with a philosopher's wit and depth." - Barry Lam, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Vassar College, and host, Hi-Phi Nation podcast on Slate
