Plato at the Googleplex by Goldstein, Rebecca Newberger
ISBN: 9781782395591 PUBLISHER: Atlantic Books FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 480 PUBLICATION DATE: 6.08.2015 DIMENSIONS: 19.8 x 12.9 centimetres 12.6 ounces
DESCRIPTION: Imagine that Plato came to life in the twenty-first century and embarked on a multi-city speaking tour. How would he mediate a debate between a Freudian psychoanalyst and a 'tiger mum' on how to raise the perfect child? How would he handle the host of a right-wing news program who denies there can be morality without religion? What would Plato make of Google, and of the idea that knowledge can be crowdsourced rather than reasoned out by experts? Plato at the Googleplex is acclaimed thinker Rebecca Newberger Goldstein's dazzling investigation of these conundra. With a philosopher's depth and erudition and a novelist's imagination and wit, Goldstein probes the deepest issues confronting us by allowing us to eavesdrop on Plato as he takes on the modern world; it is a stunningly original plunge into the drama of philosophy, revealing its hidden role in today's debates on religion, morality, politics and science.
