Each paradox is introduced as a formally rhymed poem, followed by a concise explanation that makes the underlying idea clear without sacrificing rigor. Along the way, readers encounter liars and barbers, time-travelers and twins, markets that fail because they work too well, infinities that misbehave, and arguments that collapse under their own logic. Some paradoxes are resolved; others are not. All are illuminating.","brand":"Iff Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48726550085887,"sku":"9781806950768","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781806950768_s600x595.jpg?v=1781974602","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781806950768","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
