Being and Awesomeness

Herausgeber: Matterhorn, Lorenzo von

Beschreibung

If you didn't guess that "How I Met Your Mother" is all about the metaphysical mysteries of human existence, you're in for a surprise. Like philosophy itself, "How I Met Your Mother" has everyone thinking. Have you ever wondered why you identify so strongly with Barney despite the fact that he's such a douche? Or why your life story doesn't make sense until you know the ending--or at least, the middle? Or where the Bro Code came from and why it's so powerful? "How I Met Your Mother and Philosophy" answers all these questions and a whole lot more.
