About this title

Synopsis

Pok�mon is one of the most amazing pop culture phenomena of our epoch, with deep metaphysical roots and profound philosophical implications. Pok�mon and Philosophy celebrates this cultural icon while helping its readers unpack the hidden secrets of Pok�mon.

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 Pok�mon empire and its various wide-reaching effects on Western popular culture.

Using a collection of diverse backgrounds, cutting-edge arguments, and convictions, Pok�mon and Philosophy encourages its readers to stay curious and to explore the world of Pok�mon a little further in our attempt to philosophically ‘catch ’em all’! This is the latest edition in our series, Pop Culture and Philosophy.
