Ever sat down to watch your favorite TV show and thought, "How can doing this teach me how to live a better life, make the world a fairer place, define good from bad?" Mark Rowlands uses our favorite television shows to answer the great questions of philosophy. Let Buffy the Vampire Slayer make sense of the burden of responsibility, Ross and Rachel teach you about love and friendship, 24's Jack Bauer explain the importance of justice--all ably assisted by the finest philosophical theorists who have ever lived: Nietzsche, Epicurus, Plato, Socrates, Aristotle.

Review:
"Its rigour and lucidity, the persuasive, easy way that philosophical dilemmas are attached to everyday life, Everything I Know I Learned From TV stands far above most previous efforts to popularise philosophy" (Independent)

"The author's delivery may be jokey, but his philosophy is the real thing" (You Magazine, Mail on Sunday)
From the Publisher:
Who would you rather have as a philosophy teacher: Socrates or Homer Simpson? Philosophical life coaching for the unrepentant couch potato
