Beskrivning
Pokémon is one of the most amazing pop culture phenomena of our epoch, with deep metaphysical roots and profound philosophical implications. Pokémon and Philosophy celebrates this cultural icon while helping its readers unpack the hidden secrets of Pokémon. In this collection of essays, modern-day philosophers examine and dissect the video game extravaganza. They explore its creators' original intent to entertain audiences, as well as examine the expansion of the Pokémon empire and its various wide-reaching effects on Western popular culture. Using a collection of diverse backgrounds, cutting-edge arguments, and convictions, Pokémon and Philosophy encourages its readers to stay curious and to explore the world of Pokémon a little further in our attempt to philosophically ‘catch ’em all’! This is the latest edition in our series, Pop Culture and Philosophy.

Recensioner i media

"There's more to the Pokémon universe than most people realize, as this fascinating book makes abundantly clear; arguments for god's existence, debates about personal identity, dialogues regarding free will...there's even some plant philosophy."-Robert Arp, author of "1001 Ideas that Changed the Way We Think" (2013)
