Science fiction has always provided a rich resource for Philosophy. What is different about this collection of twenty short sci-fi stories is that were all written by a Philosopher. They cover every aspect of science fiction. All the familiar 'tropes' are here – with a twist – but these tales are designed to make you think as much as to entertain. They will overturn your expectations, undermine your easy-going assumptions and hopefully make you see the world and yourself differently. Which is all that philosophy sets out to do. Have fun!CONTENTS– A Better Ray Gun– The Black Box– I Love Your Waspish Waist– Walkabout– A Million Dark Years– A Case of Doubt– The Last... What?– A Lesson in Biology– Alien Baby– The Insurance Policy– Perfect Day– The Good Witness– Hare and Hounds– The Fatalists– Hold That Sucker Down– The Ministry of Perception– Go Deep– Space Hopper– That Feeling When– Message From a Lonely Planet
