Battlestar Galactica and Philosophy: Knowledge Here Begins Out There (The… (2008)

I had to force myself to finish. I really just wanted to keep my BSG high going after finishing the series on DVD. What you’ll find here is entry level philosophy with BSG sprinkled on top. By splitting the difference between the two the book becomes unsatisfying in both philosophic and galactic regards. Some of the articles are written poorly. Of course the ones I liked the most were about things I am already interested in: Heidegger, Zen, feminism, and transhumanism.Why isn't the ENTIRE book about transhumanism?There is another book with the same title and a book of academic essays about BSG I am going to try with hopes they will be meatier. If such books don’t exist yet, I’m sure they will be written in the future as BSG was one of the most intellectually stimulating shows ever on TV. ( )
