Labyrinths of Reason: Paradox, Puzzles and the Frailty of Knowledge by William Poundstone

ISBN: 9780140131369

Penguin Books Ltd | 1991

Paperback | 274 pages

This sharply intelligent, consistently provocative book takes the reader on an astonishing, thought‑provoking voyage into the realm of delightful uncertainty. Labyrinths of Reason explores what paradox has to tell us about the nature of thought and reality, from classic puzzles like the prisoner’s dilemma and the paradox of induction to deeper implications for logic, cognition, and knowledge itself. Poundstone blends philosophy, mathematics, and cognitive science to reveal how reason can both illuminate and confound our understanding of the world.
