Hardcover. Condition: Fine. x, 243 pages; 23 cm. "In Harry Potter and Philosophy, individual chapters look at such topics as life revealed in the Mirror of Erised; the ethics of magic; Moaning Myrtle, Nearly Headless Nick, and the relation of the mind to the brain; and the character of Hermione as a case of "sublimated feminism." Also examined in this collection are how Aristotle would have run a school for wizards; whether the Potter stories undermine religion and morality; how to tell good people from evil ones through the characters in these novels; and what dementors and boggarts can teach readers about happiness, fear, and the soul. --From publisher's description." // Contents: I. Wizards, Witches, and Muggles: The Inhabitants of Potter's World; 1. Becoming Harry Potter: An Orphan's Search for Identity; 2.
