Buridans Paradox Mugs

Description: "Named after the 14th-century philosopher Jean Buridan, this puzzle about free will and rational choice is drawn with strict symmetry: a bale of hay, a bucket of water and a lonely chooser on the dividing line. Buridan's paradox of perfect indecision: a point exactly halfway between hay and water, equally hungry, equally thirsty, at the same distance d from both. With perfectly equal reasons, can a rational will decide? For philosophy and economics students, decision theorists, game designers, overthinkers and anyone who has ever been stuck between two equally good options. A witty yet serious gift.
