A fun, lively, and fully illustrated cookbook of 30 original and practical recipes inspired by NBC's hit sitcom The Good Place, filled with the absurd, pun-driven food humor and accessible philosophy that make the show so popular. With its high concept, exceptional writing, eye-popping set design, stellar cast, meaningful explorations of what it means to be a good person, and clam chowder fountains, The Good Place has captured the hearts and minds of critics and viewers alike. For the first time ever, fans can indulge their cravings for The Good Place with delicious, comforting, original recipes like "Macaroni and Socra-cheese," "I Think Therefore I Clam (Chowder)," "Arendt You Glad I Didn't Say Banana (Split)," "I Kant Believe It's Not Buttermilk Pancakes," and more. Each recipe title references a philosopher or philosophical concept from the show and uses food analogies to explain those concepts to readers who, like Eleanor, can't always follow Chidi's lectures. A refreshing and entertaining twist on cookbooks, Forking Good will help you plan your next viewing party or spread as you re-binge your favorite show.

Petit manuel des parents dans les oeuvres geeks

Je suis ton père

Die Wahrheit ist irgendwo da draußen ... Was können wir wissen? Was sollen wir tun? Was dürfen wir hoffen? Große Fragen, die schon so manchen in die Arme der Philosophen oder – schlimmer noch – der Religion getrieben haben. Stephen H. Segal zeigt, dass es auch anders geht: Die wirklich wichtigen Weisheiten finden wir nämlich nicht in den alten Schmökern wie der Bibel, sondern in Superheldencomics, Fantasyserien und Science-Fiction-Filmen. Also: Kirk statt Kant und Meister Yoda statt Papst Franziskus. Für alle, die sich schon immer gefragt haben, was wir aus ›Der Herr der Ringe‹, ›The Big Lebowski‹, ›Spiderman‹, der ›Big Bang Theory‹, ›Doctor Who‹ oder ›Star Wars‹ lernen können.
