Play is a vital component of the social life and well-being of both
children and adults. This book examines the concept of play and
considers a variety of the related philosophical issues. It also
includes meta-analyses from a range of philosophers and theorists,
as well as an exploration of some key applied ethical
considerations. The main objective of The Philosophy of Play is to
provide a richer understanding of the concept and nature of play
and its relation to human life and values, and to build
disciplinary and paradigmatic bridges between scholars of
philosophy and scholars of play. Including specific chapters
dedicated to children and play, and exploring the work of key
thinkers such as Plato, Sartre, Wittgenstein, Gadamer, Deleuze and
Nietzsche, this book is invaluable reading for any advanced
student, researcher or practitioner with an interest in education,
playwork, leisure studies, applied ethics or the philosophy of
sport.
