Some interesting food for thought here. Doesn't have to be read front to back. Just open to a page and think.

It's best to think of this book as a little toolbox to help you explore some of the biggest questions in philosophy through the use of practical exercises. Each of the 101 exercises is carefully, even lovingly explained, with duration, necessary props and intended effect listed first.

The goal is to break down some of our automated mental mechanisms, challenge preconceived notions of the world, our fixed ideas and perhaps see the world from a clean slate. Not every exercise will do that for everybody, but nor should they. I should warn you though, if you are neither existentially inclined nor playful, this book is unlikely to be for you.

I found I already done 95% of the so-called experiments in this book just by living and pondering. Adults who can naturally day-dream and get lost in thought about the oddities of perspective and the world probably will find this book to be a statement of the obvious.

It was fun for a few days, but I hid it so that I could stumble upon it in the future.
This book takes things we all (think we) know, for instance the way a word loses its meaning when repeated multiple times, and confronts them in a way no book I've ever seen does.
It's a good read because it covers many of these same weird philosophies of human nature, life in general, and the obvious things we overlook.

Thought provoking and fun. A book to be savoured and dipped into from time to time. I've been practicing "See the Stars Below You" as I fall asleep at night. Dazzling!

You know those Tumblr blogs that are like "warm suggestions" "positive suggestions", etc, that will post things like "let the sunlight warm your skin in the morning" or "feel the steam of your tea curl over your face"? Yeah this book was that, but like, evil. Suggestions that trigger dissociative episodes.

Des expériences intéressantes .. d’autres moins intéressantes.. j’ai essayé quelques-unes mais pas toutes.
Je le garde dans ma bibliothèque pour des futures expérimentations de ramer dans ma chambre!
