Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates: Using Philosophy

Synopsis

A hilarious take on the philosophy, theology and psychology of mortality and immortality. That is, death. The authors pry open the coffin lid on this one, looking at the big d, its prequel, life, and its sequel, the hereafter. Philosophers such as schopenhauer, nietzsche, camus and sartre have been wrestling with the meaning of death for as long as they have been wrestling with the meaning of life. Fortunately, humourists have been keeping pace with the major thinkers by creating gags about dying. Death's funny that way - it gets everybody's attention.
