Just when you thought paper couldn't be more exciting, this
book comes your way! This book--jammed full of
paper--unites philosophy with one of the best shows ever:
The Office. Addressing both the current American incarnation
and the original British version, The Office and Philosophy
brings these two wonders of civilization together for a frolic
through the mundane yet curiously edifying worlds of
Scranton's Dunder-Mifflin and Slough's Wernham-Hogg.
Is Michael Scott in denial about death? Are Pam and Jim ever
going to figure things out? Is David Brent an essentialist?
Surprisingly, The Office can teach us about the mind,
Aristotle, and humiliation. Even more surprisingly, paper companies
can allow us to better understand business ethics. Don't
believe it? Open this book, and behold its beautiful
paper...
Join the philosophical fray as we explore the abstract world of
philosophy through concrete scenes of the unexamined life in The
Office. You may discover that Gareth Keenan is secretly a
brilliant logician, that Dwight Schrute is better off deceiving
himself, that David Brent is an example of hyperreality, and that
Michael Scott is hopelessly lost (but you probably already knew
that!).
