Re: The Legend of Zelda Philosophy

Huh, I've never heard of that.  Perhaps the closest I've come is "South Park and Philosophy".  It seems that it's a new thing nowadays to link pop culture with philosophical thought.  I even had a girlfriend in college who took a course on Buffy and Philosophy.  Weird.

Anyway, I may have to pick this book up.

What about the best Zelda book ever? The Oracle of Ages Choose Your Own Adventure? or Moblin's Magic Spear? Ok I'm just kidding, but I really did own the OoA Book.

Re: The Legend of Zelda Philosophy

As a former employee of Borders I can tell you that books is part of a series. The objective of the books is to use examples from video games, movies, and other media to teach you about philososphy. They are kinda neat, I have the one for Warcraft cuz I'm a big ol' nerd, like that.
