Interesting concept... A team of philosophers set up a table in a busy area with a sign that said "Ask a Philosopher". People came up and asked questions (some original questions, some from a list). This book contains 50+ of those questions and answers.

The questions range from big ("what is the meaning of life?") to small ("is ketchup a smoothie?"). Some questions seemed very pertinent ("are people born straight or gay?") and some less so ("how do you know that 1+1=2?").

In any case, it was an interesting journey into philosophical thought and practice, if not entirely pragmatic.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my opinion. My thanks to the author, publisher, and #NetGalley. #AskAPhilosopher
