In the tradition of Platonic dialog and Socratic self-examination, it's a often hilarious, always thought-provoking journey across the world of philosophy, from Ancient China to modern Kentucky and all points in between. Inspired by the popular, long-running podcast, and containing an elite selection of the best episodes from the past 15 years, including celebrity guests such as Lucy Lawless and Dr. Drew, philosophical heavyweights such as Peter "Animal Liberation" Singer and Patricia Churchland, and non-western texts such as Ibn Sina, under-represented philosophers, such as bell hooks, and topics from Race and Religion to Art, the Free Market and the Nature of Reality. Complete with entertaining illustrations, never-before-seen photos and original essays, it is perfect for the beginning philosopher or the expert, as well as for hardcore fans and complete newcomers.
“I’m a huge fan of The Partially Examined Life...” - Dr. Drew Pinsky (Loveline)
“I’ve never before heard my work discussed like that, and rarely as intelligently… I enjoyed every minute.” - Arthur Danto
“I’ve been laughing at you for the last year… I thought that I would... go back to university and study philosophy… all because of you.” - Lucy Lawless (Xena)

paperback. Condition: Good. Arnold, Genevieve; Warr, Chris (illustrator). Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
