Platon et un ornithorynque entrent dans un bar... – Comprendre la philosophie par les blagues

This New York Times bestseller is the hilarious philosophy course everyone wishes they d had in school. Outrageously funny, Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar. . . has been a breakout bestseller ever since authors and born vaudevillians Thomas Cathcart and Daniel Klein did their schtick on NPR s Weekend Edition. Lively, original, and powerfully informative, Plato and a Platypus Walk Into a Bar. . . is a not-so-reverent crash course through the great philosophical thinkers and traditions, from Existentialism (What do Hegel and Bette Midler have in common? ) to Logic (Sherlock Holmes never deduced anything). Philosophy 101 for those who like to take the heavy stuff lightly, this is a joy to read and finally, it all makes sense! And now, you can read Daniel Klein's further musings on life and philosophy in Travels with Epicurus and Every Time I Find the Meaning of Life, They Change it.
