Dalene calling: I used to read these books all the time. It came with a picture that the brother would have drawn of the crime scene. The sister would interview people and by the end of the story, they’d have solved the mystery. Then the answer would be written in the back of the book, written backwards. You could either learn how to read the story backwards or look at it in a mirror and read it that way.
Does this strike a memory with anyone?

Elias calling: Art and entertainment are both things that are perceived. Good art and good entertainment both produce a satisfying experience for the beholder. What is the difference?
Everyone has raised some interesting points but I still haven’t found an answer which really explains it.
Some of you have characterized art requiring a creative process but so does entertainment. Also some have said art is expression but entertainment can also be expression. Just think of comedians who express their views in often hilarious ways which offer real social commentary just like art might.
Entertainment has been associated with enjoyment. If there is no enjoyment, there is no entertainment. However, not all forms of entertainment are enjoyed by everyone just like not all forms of art are enjoyed by everyone. Even entertainment within the same genre can be both liked and disliked by different people.
The most common theme I see in your answers is that art is for thinking and entertainment is for enjoyment. I don’t think this holds up because the same thought processes that make art stimulating also makes entertainment stimulating.

Orlando calling: Hi, I’m college student and I’m looking to conduct an experiment in my evolutionary psychology class. The topic is monogamy and the psychological aspect of people who abides by it and people who don’t. There are many theories out there. But here, what I need is an experiment to come up with my own theory (whether it support or refute any existing theories is secondary).
Does anyone have any ideas as to what kind of experiment I can conduct to accomplish this?
