Individual ads caused different reactions, some positive and some negative. Evolution won two Cannes Lions Grand Prix awards. Writing for The Daily Telegraph, Katy Young called Real Beauty Sketches "[Dove's] most thought provoking film yet ... Moving, eye opening and in some ways saddening, this is one campaign that will make you think, and hopefully, feel more beautiful." The campaign has been criticized on the grounds that Unilever also produces Fair and Lovely, a skin-lightening product marketed at dark-skinned women in several countries.

" At the Toronto International Film Festival, the national panel of judges placed it in the year's top 10.

Michiko Kakutani, "How a Family Story Describes Europe," New York Times, 3 November 1992 Amanda Craig wrote in the Literary Review that while Black Dogs had potential to be "a pleasing essay on the ambiguous nature of memory and desire, or the real and the ideal," it ultimately "gets lost in portentous [...] polemic." James Saynor of The Observer derided the book as "wan and fractured" and the characterization as "schematic". Conversely, Zadie Smith in 2005 dubbed Black Dogs a "brilliant, flinty little novel, bursting with big ideas". The following year, Roger Boylan wrote that the novel is "the most thought-provoking" of McEwan's books and that it deserved the Booker Prize more than Amsterdam (1998).

Pitchfork called it a "stunning debut" and gave the song "Diddy Bop" their "Best New Track" honor, with Jayson Greene writing: > "Diddy Bop" is luxurious and easy and warm, a reminiscence about good times, > or better ones. Her voice is in a playful and confident middle range between > forestalling, singing, and slam poetry, and her lyrics carve out enough > details to fill the song with an entire imagined cast of characters—jealous > boyfriends griping at girls in love with Raz-B from B2K; kids nabbing > twenties from their mom's purse..." Rolling Stone called the mixtape "some of 2016's most thought-provoking hip- hop.

Unpublished paper. However, they argue that she over-estimates the influence of cultural, rather than genetic, evolution in shaping human cognition, and, using literacy and numeracy as examples, that her book Cognitive Gadgets does not provide compelling evidence for cultural selection rather than cultural diffusion of distinctively human cognitive mechanisms. Tyler Cowen, an economist, wrote of Cognitive Gadgets: "think of this book as perhaps the best attempt so far to explain the weirdness of humans, relative to other animals", and "Highly recommended, it is likely to prove one of the most thought-provoking books of the year." Diane Coyle, an economist and former advisor to the UK Treasury, described Cognitive Gadgets as a new and "persuasive approach to thinking about decision-makingnot for example as a matter of setting up choices in ways that nudge flawed humans to do the right thing".

Charlotte Ellertson called Breaking the Abortion Deadlock "the most thought-provoking addition to a stale abortion debate to emerge in 25 years", including "one of the most logical and consistent pro-choice arguments articulated to date". With Laura Pappano, McDonagh published Playing with the Boys: Why Separate Is Not Equal in Sports in 2008. The authors examine the history of legal and social policies that have caused gender imbalances in both competitive and recreational sports. In 2009, McDonagh published the book The Motherless State: Women's Political Leadership and American Democracy, in which she proposes that the low proportion of women elected to political office in the United States is partly a function of the overlap between the types of policies that the United States government has traditionally pursued and stereotypes about what tasks are best administered by men and women.

" Christianity Todays Kristin Garrett said the band "once again proves the group's vocal versatility and solid sound" and felt the music on the album "oscillates between poetry and over-sentimentality; however, the album's overall themes resound with the truth of divine love, redemption and healing in the face of brokenness." Cross Rhythms's Ben Lloyd gave an illusion of the album being like a "journey through a number of different musical styles whilst retaining the Canadian band's use of worshipful lyrics." He continued his praise with the band has "a reputation for being one of the most thought provoking worship ministries serving the international Church and they retain their creative standards with this set." Jesus Freak Hideout's Jen Rose stated this album "marries elements of chamber pop, alternative rock, and even a touch of Americana folk for a sound more expansive than expected from a four- piece band.

The science fiction author and activist Cory Doctorow reviewed the book for Boing Boing, summarizing it as "pure Rucker: a dope-addled exploration of the way- out fringes of string theory and the quantum universe that distorts the possible into the most improbable contortions," and rated it as "one of the most fun, strangest, most thought-provoking sf novels I've read, and it's fantastic to have it show up on the net, ready to be copied and shared." He praised the decision to release the material under a Creative Commons license. Booklist stated that "While Rucker’s improbable scenarios sometimes cross the line into pure silliness, his devoted fans and dazzled newcomers to him will revel in his willingness to push technological extrapolation to its soaring limits.". io9's Charlie Jane Anders stated that it "actually pulls off the ambitious multilayered story it sets out to tell," but described the novel as being full of "bizarre idea-spikes" such as the hibrane.

Wooden cabinets with glass fronts were filled with a variety of objects both created and collected by the artist: in a letter she described the contents of Meat Cupboard as "3 realistic bones from decent-sized cuts, 6 abstract foetal forms, 6 collected 'found' nests, 6 of my clay containers with different meat types in each." Each group of items was placed on a separate shelf in its cabinet, with each shelf referencing a different style of art: Realism at the top, then Abstraction, then Found Objects, with the lowest shelf melding all three. In the mid 1980s Hellyar started working with latex and fabric again, and extended the ‘hunter/gatherer’ theme in works like the ‘Pacific Food Aprons’, in which latex castings of vegetables and meat were sewn onto fabric aprons. Art historian Anne Kirker notes that by the time of her 1985 Aprons exhibition in Wellington, Hellyar was seen as 'one of the country's most thought-provoking and innovative sculptors'.

Glenn Ellmers in Claremont Review of Books noted that Peterson "does not shrink from telling readers that life means pain and suffering. His deft exposition, however, makes clear that duty is often liberating and responsibility can be a gift". Dorothy Cummings McLean, writing for the online magazine The Catholic World Report, considered it as "the most thought-provoking self-help book I have read in years", the rules for life reminding her of those by Bernard Lonergan, and content "serving as a bridge between Christians and non-Christians interested in the truths of human life and in resisting the lies of ideological totalitarianism". Bishop Robert Barron in a review for the same magazine praised the archetypal reading of the story about Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden with Jesus representing "gardener", and the psychological exploration of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and The Gulag Archipelago; but was not supportive of its "gnosticizing tendency to read Biblical religion purely psychologically and philosophically and not at all historically" or the idea that "God ... [is] simply a principle or an abstraction".

Not only is this shocking for the audience in comparison to episodes and series past, but even the fictional Voyager crew are stunned. In 2000, David McIntee pointed to these themes and plot points as having made "Tuvix" the most debated episode in Star Trek fandom yet, and one of Star Trek: Voyager "most thought-provoking, and [...] single most discussed, episode." In her book American Science Fiction TV, Jan Johnson-Smith noted that "Tuvix" is one of a recurring type of Star Trek episodes concerned with issues of individuality and self. She thematically tied this episode to Star Trek: The Original Series episode "The Enemy Within" where the transporter rends Captain Kirk into two separate representations of his psyche, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine character of Jadzia Dax who is of a conjoined species (Trill) that repeatedly goes through a conjoining process when the host organism dies, and Star Trek: Voyager episode "Faces" where hybrid Human/Klingon character B'Elanna Torres is split along her bloodline into two separate species.
