Description
Arguably the most important pop culture import from the East to the West, manga is a phenomenon that can no longer be ignored. Yet just as much as it is a source of visual splendor and riveting storylines, manga - theherald of the exotic and uber-hip - stimulates intense philosophical interest. Manga and Philosophy joins the lively discussion by examining some of its major forms, best titles, and the cultural factors surrounding it.Tags
