Produktinformationen zu „The Big Bang Theory and Philosophy / The Blackwell Philosophy and Pop Culture Series (PDF)“
A lighthearted meditation on the philosophical quandaries of the
hit television show The Big Bang Theory
Ever wonder what Aristotle might say about the life Sheldon
Cooper leads? Why Thomas Hobbes would applaud the roommate
agreement? Who Immanuel Kant would treat with "haughty derision"
for weaving "un-unravelable webs?" And--most
importantly--whether Wil Wheaton is truly evil? Of
course you have. Bazinga!
This book mines the deep thinking of some of history's most
potent philosophical minds to explore your most pressing questions
about The Big Bang Theory and its nerdy genius characters.
You might find other philosophy books on science and cosmology, but
only this one refers to Darth Vader Force-chokes, cloning Leonard
Nimoy, and oompa-loompa-like engineers. Fo-shizzle.
* Gives you irresistibly geek-worthy insights on your favorite
Big Bang Theory characters, story lines, and ideas
* Examines important themes involving ethics and virtue, science,
semiotics, religion, and the human condition
* Brings the thinking of some of the world's greatest
philosophers to bear on The Big Bang Theory, from Aristotle
and Plato to Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Simone de Beauvoir, and
more
Essential reading for every Big Bang Theory fan, this
book explores whether comic-book-wielding geeks can lead the good
life, and whether they can know enough science to "tear the mask
off nature and stare at the face of God."
