About this product

Product Information

The Matrix conveys the horror of a false world made of nothing but perceptions. Based on the premise that reality is a dream controlled by malevolent forces, it is one of the most overtly philosophical movies ever to come out of Hollywood. These thought-provoking essays by the same team of young philosophers who created The Simpsons and Philosophy discuss different facets of the primary philosophical puzzle of The Matrix: Can we be sure the world is really there, and if not, what should we do about it? Other chapters address issues of religion, lifestyle, pop culture, the Zeitgeist, the nature of mind and matter, and the reality of fiction.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    The Matrix and Philosophy

    This book, above others, hold information that I see as infinite possibilities. The Matrix, is something that could possibly be in this world and in this time. While reading this you go in depth through the research, thoughts and ideals of some of the greatest minds of our time. They describe what the matrix is and why they perceive it to be real. In my opinion this is a great book for seekers of the ideal of the Matrix.

    The Philosophy of the Matrix

    I bought the book for a class, to write a paper about philosophy. I love the movie The Matrix, so i thought the movie would be a good way to explain philosophy. This book deeply examines the movie, and has allowed me to write my paper very effectively. To anyone who loves The Matrix, or who just doesn't understand The Matrix and would like to, definitely check out this book.

    AWSOME BOOK

    If you are a fan of the Matrix, this is an extremely interesting book. Occasionally it is a bit difficult to understand without some philosophical background, otherwise it is amazing.
