Popular Culture and Philosophy: Book 23 - 1st printing. "Questions Are Forever!" Edited by James B. South and Jacob M. Held. In James Bond and Philosophy, seventeen scholars examine hidden philosophical issues in the hazardous, deceptive, glamorous world of Double-0 Seven. Is Bond a Nietzschean hero who graduates "beyond good and evil"? Does Bond paradoxically break the law in order, ultimately, to uphold it like any "stupid policeman"? What can Bonds razor-sharp reasoning powers tell us about the scientific pursuit of truth? Does 007s license to kill help us understand the ethics of counterterrorism? What motivates all those despicable Bond villains—could it be a Hegelian quest for recognition? Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 320 pages, Text Only Cover price $17.95.
