Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking
by Daniel C. Dennett
Daniel Dennett’s Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking serves as a toolkit for identifying flawed arguments, sharpening valid ones, and seeing the world more clearly — a guide for clearer, more disciplined thinking. It explains how to use structured “thinking tools” — mental devices that assist us in reasoning, questioning assumptions, and finding hidden mistakes. The book’s main message: good thinking isn’t about innate genius but about using better tools.
