Description:
Featuring classic authors and brand new work, we are confronted with a fundamental metaphysical challenge in every story. Are we souls, brains, animals, or patterns of information? Are the Buddhists right to say that the self is an illusion? Do we survive under conditions such as total amnesia, or the replacement of our brains by machine parts? Each story is accompanied by an introductory overview and examination of the philosophical arguments behind it.
Alongside deeper appreciation of stories by authors such as Roald Dahl, John Varley, J. R. Dawson and Ursula Le Guin, we are seamlessly introduced to the philosophy of personal identity through memorable fiction-
'The Barbie Murders' depicts a society in which each member conforms to a strict template for their physical and mental characteristics.
'Marley and Marley' follows a middle-aged woman who takes part in a government program to travel back in time to take care of her orphaned younger self.
'Edward the Conqueror' investigates the existence of the soul, when a mysterious cat appears to be reincarnation of a long-dead composer.
Thought-provoking and highly entertaining, this one-of-a-kind anthology challenges traditional beliefs around how we see ourselves and allows us to understand what it means to be human.

Durable, Dogs love it
Color: Red
My Frenchie is a crazy chewer and can chew up a nylabone in a day, so I was looking for something that would last longer. So far this is holding up, and is pretty durable. Both my dogs like it a lot, it’s easy for them to grasp, and chewable but still very tough material. I suspect at some point it’ll wear down, but not for a while. The size was just as described / expected. Not too small and not too big

NOT FOR PLAYING CATCH.
Color: Blue
This toy is quite heavy, making it good for a chew toy or for fetch, but not for catch. It could very easily injure your dog as it damned near did mine.

Durable bone that you can add a spreadable treat to
Color: Blue
Our German Shepherd was 4 months old when we purchased this. She’s going to be 6 months soon. She has been teething really bad. We wanted some way to sooth her pain. This product was just what we needed. We put it in the freezer with some peanut butter in the center on both sides. Once frozen we give to our puppy. She loves it. When we open the freezer she recognizes the ziplock package that it was delivered in which we store it in our freezer. She jumps around until we give it to her. She loves it and it keeps her occupied for a while. It is very durable. I did not notice any smell when we received it. It does not make any noise. The plastic material is safe for animals. To clean I put in the dishwasher. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because sometimes the peanut butter gets stuck in it and may need to go through the dishwasher twice which is not a big deal. Or you can hand wash it. I found the dishwasher was best for us. You do not even have to put anything on it, but our pup likes it. I would recommend to others.
