This is an excellent book for starting discussions. I've used it with friends in the car on long road trips, as a college RA to spark discussion during communication activities, and in ethics classes as a source of examples of serious ethical dilemmas. Also, if you're like me and were born without the gift of the gab, keeping a few of the more interesting questions in mind will help you through any social setting. While there are numerous mundane and perhaps pointless questions in this book, there are numerous perplexing, thought-provoking, and difficult ones as well. This book will get you thinking seriously about your beliefs.

Thought provoking, conversation stimulating questions. 5 X 7 inch paperback, 205 pages. Not trivia questions, but questions about you or the person you ask -- what you think, feel, value. What you would do in given situations.

This is a fun way to get a conversation going in a group or between two people. It would also be a good story starter device!A typical question is as follows: If you could wake up tomorrow having gained any one abilty or quality, what would it be?
