Mr. Robot and Philosophy is aimed at thoughtful fans of this addictive show who will welcome the opportunity to explore Elliot Alderson's world from a philosophical perspective.The developing story of Mr. Robot constantly raises ethical and metaphysical issues. What happens to our personal identity when it’s extended into cyberspace and an array of electronic devices? Are we in control of our online lives or are we being controlled? What does our right to privacy mean in a world where millions of people can observe what we’re doing and saying? Is a virtual currency true money and could it replace traditional money? Can there be healthy forms of drug addiction? Can some types of so-called mental illness be useful and beneficial?Does it make any sense to unleash destruction upon the existing corporate economic structures, and can we expect something better to emerge from the ruins of a digital meltdown?Country/Region of Manufacture: USBook Series: Popular Culture and PhilosophyGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityTopic: Crime Thrillers & Mystery, Computing & Internet, Films & TV, FictionAuthor: Richard GreeneRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
