i knew south park had some philosophy in it but not this much. a very entertaining read for fans of the show and philosophy. ( )

Well, this book felt like a teaching class of basic philosophy, which, in retrospective, was to be expected. Theres plenty of chapters focusing on several topics that are touched by southpark, or that southpark touches, some chapters use an episode to kickstart a conversation on a topic, but dont really go back to have any connection to southpark itself, just explaining something about philosophy that would help you understand the background of other chapters, theres chapters on feminism, vegetarianism, music, logic, death, lies, humor, and profanity. All in all it was a very fun book to read, I feel some chapters could be used on college to start a class on some basic topic and build from there.

This is a well-done, thorough, researched, intelligent, and sometimes uproarously-hilarious work on a topic that has been a long time coming: philosophy through the lens of South Park. It manages to use the show to address such philosophical issues as the problem of evil and of existence, as well as including some fascinating treatments of certain South Park characters. This book inspired my upcoming class on censorship and South Park and so has proven itself as both entertaining and enjoyable as well as an invaluable resource. ( )
