Summary Most people think of paradoxes as unanswerable, contradictory questions deliberately designed to confuse you for no good reason. But they're actually a lot more complex than that; some paradoxes can be answered even if they seem impossible, and others are obviously wrong... but it may take thousands of years of human experience and the invention of calculus to prove why. Join Kevin, some action figures, three envelopes and a whole lot of whiteboard doodles as you discover the three types of paradoxes: Veridical, Falsidical and Antinomy, and why each one plays a unique role in how we process the world around us -- including finally learning how there's a mathematical explanation for why you should always switch doors in Monty Hall's classic game show.
