Popular Culture and Philosophy: Book 52 - 1st printing. Edited by Josef Steiff and Adam Barkman. Arguably the most important pop culture import from the East to the West, manga is a phenomenon that can no longer be ignored. Yet just as much as it is a source of visual splendor and riveting storylines, manga stimulates intense philosophical interest. This, coupled with the incredible-but-true fact that no complete book in the West has yet engaged with manga's philosophical side, makes this book, Manga and Philosophy, all but indispensable for fans and scholars alike. Because manga isn't restricted to a single genre much less to a single series or a single author, the possibility for stories and ideas are endless. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 288 pages, Text Only. Cover price $19.95.
