Philosophy and Science Fiction (Paperback)

One of the more exciting ways to grapple with important philosophical questions, positions, and arguments, is through philosophical fiction. Accessible and lively, such fiction can be as enlightening as it is entertaining. It is an especially valuable genre for those who find philosophy "dry and academic." This book is the best collection of philosophically interesting science fiction ever assembled. It is an introduction to philosophy for readers of science fiction and an introduction to science fiction for the philosophically inclined. The book consists of a collection of stories arranged by philosophical subject area. Each section begins with an introduction describing the philosophical issues and options, and ends with a set of study questions designed to guide reflection.
