From a young age, children are often fascinated by huge questions about
morality, human nature, and the universe. Beautifully illustrated in
full-color, this fascinating book harnesses their natural curiosity,
while providing them with all the tools that they need to make sense of
some of life's big questions.
Think About It! Philosophy for Kids includes the ideas of many iconic
philosophers, including Plato, Descartes, Alan Turing, Thomas Hobbes and
David Humes. Each double-page spread tackles an array of quandaries from
an accessible, child-friendly point of view, including:
- What makes something true?
- Can a machine think?
- What makes someone good or bad?
- Do I have free will?
These issues are considered from different points of view, featuring
useful thought-experiments. A wonderfully mind-expanding read for
children aged 8+.
