About book The Ultimate Harry Potter And Philosophy: Hogwarts For Muggles (2010)

I loved reading this book. As a huge Harry Potter fan, this collection of short essays was fascinating. In this book the writers captured the deeper questions of the Potter books and films and compared them to the work of great philosophers ranging from Socrates to William James. I love that the sources used were all very credible, and that they also cited quotes from the Potter books as well. It reminded me of a few small details that I had lost in the time span that has passed since originally reading the books. If you're a Potter fan, this book is definitely a must-read. Brilliant. This book is basically a popularized philosophical analysis of my favorite fantasy series during my adolescence, providing an even-more deeper meaning to the already-multilayered narrative. A wide array of "muggle" disciplines including sociopolitics, ethics, psychology, and philosophy are reflected eloquently upon the backdrop of pure Rowling ingenuity represented by the Harry Potter series. A must-read for all those itching for rekindling their Harry Potter experience.
