Metallica and Philosophy: A Crash Course in Brain… de William Irwin

Been listening to them again since discovering Elizabeth Zarhoff's Youtube channel, "Charismatic Voice" reviews of the musical merits of their music. Her reviews of Nothing Else Matters, Master of Puppets, One - really got me to think beyond the lyrics - and sent me back to this book.

It's worth listening, watching and reading all three together.

El propio Homer Simpson afirma que «las series animadas no tienen significado profundo. Son sólo unos dibujos estúpidos para pasar el rato» (T03 E02). Con todo, este libro no sólo tiene mucho que decir sobre ese gran artefacto cultural de nuestro tiempo que es Los Simpson a entusiastas y detractores de la serie por igual, sino que es una introducción entretenida y al mismo tiempo rigurosa a la obra de pensadores como Aristóteles, Kant, Heidegger o Sartre, entre muchos otros.

The Simpsons and Philosophy de William; Conard Irwin, Mart T. & Skoble, Aeon J.

Just the fact that this book exists is awesome. I love the chapter about Lisa and how we live in an anti-intellectual society. However, there is a downside: the essays are written in an academic format, and thus don't read fluidly, which I think would have made this book perfect.
