托马斯·卡斯卡特&丹尼尔·克莱恩(Thomas Cathcart &Daniel Klein),美国畅销作家。两人从哈佛大学哲学系毕业后走上了不同的路。托马斯在芝加哥社区和神学院工作,出版哲学书;丹尼尔在纽约为电视脱口秀写脚本,还写悬疑小说。两人有一个梦想:用哲学拯救沉闷的生活。他们用幽默段子和丰富知识,写出了《柏拉图和鸭嘴兽一起去酒吧》,结果一炮而红。他们目前都和家人生活在新英格兰地区。
This New York Times bestseller is the hilarious philosophy course everyone wishes they'd had in school
Outrageously funny, Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar . . . has been a breakout bestseller ever since authors(and born vaudevillians)Thomas Cathcart and Daniel Klein did their schtick on NPR's Weekend Edition . Lively, original, and powerfully informative, Plato and a Platypus Walk Into a Bar . . . is a not-so-reverent crash course through the great philosophical thinkers and traditions, from Existentialism ( What do Hegel and Bette Midler have in common? ) to Logic ( Sherlock Holmes never deduced anything ). Philosophy 101 for those who like to take the heavy stuff lightly, this is a joy to read and finally, it all makes sense!

评分有读者看到了这本书的推广文章后问我,这书里除了几个老掉牙的段子以外,还有什么? 我作为译者,来说几句吧。 首先,这本书的两个作者都是哈佛大学哲学系毕业的高材生,写这本书的时候两人都已白发苍苍,所以他们的段子比较“经典”也不足为奇。(不过我认为国内只有极少数人...
适合飞机起飞降落 或者上了一天班在床上睡前看 会心一笑的瞬间挺开心
