Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates

Book of the Week: Leviathan.

This week’s Book of the Week is frankly speculative: Leviathan is apparently alternate history (WWI) steampunk, which pushes a lot of my buttons. Although I suspect that I’ll be stuck with waiting for this one in paperback.

And so, it being Sunday, we say farewell to Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates: Using Philosophy (and Jokes!) to Explore Life, Death, the Afterlife, and Everything in Between.

Book of the Week: ‘Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates’

Yeah, I know: but Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates: Using Philosophy (and Jokes!) to Explore Life, Death, the Afterlife, and Everything in Between was something that I had grabbed for my wife to pass the time while waiting for midwife appointments, mostly because of the cover art. I’m reading it now, on the thumbs-up that my wife gave it: it is in fact pretty funny so far.

And so, it being Sunday, we replace Take Back Your Government with it.
