The writers begin with an examination of the characters. Does Homer actually display Aristotle s virtues of character? In what way does Bart exemplify

This unconventional and lighthearted introduction to the ideas of the major Western philosophers examines The Simpsons TV s favorite animated family. The authors look beyond the jokes, the crudeness, the attacks on society and see a clever display of irony, social criticism, and philosophical thought. The writers begin with an examination of the characters. Does Homer actually display Aristotle s virtues of character? In what way does Bart exemplify American pragmatism? The book also examines the ethics and themes of the show, and concludes with discussions of how the series reflects the work of Aristotle, Marx, Camus, Sartre, and other thinkers."

Husky Approved
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
Okay, so my husky, bless his cotton socks, thinks he's a furry little demolition crew. Usually, plush toys last about five minutes before they're disemboweled, leaving a fluffy white crime scene all over my living room. BUT! These Sharlovy toys are a game changer! They're stuffing-free, which is a HUGE win for my sanity (and my vacuum cleaner). He can happily gnaw away, trying to get to that squeaker (and succeeding, eventually, because, husky), but without the usual explosion of fluff. Five stars for saving me from a lifetime of stuffing-related stress. If you have a chewer, give these a try. Your house (and your head) will thank you.

No Mess, Lots of Fun!
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
My dog absolutely loves these toys! The squeakers and crinkle sounds keep him entertained for hours, and I appreciate that they have no stuffing—so no messy cleanup when he plays a little rough. The variety pack is great because it gives him different animals to choose from, and the toys are surprisingly durable even with lots of chewing. They’re lightweight, easy for him to carry around, and perfect for playtime or keeping him busy when I’m working. Definitely a great value for the price, and I’ll be buying again when he wears them out. Highly recommend!

Great
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
These are big deal toys for our dogs. Use them when have to go out for a whole day. Have bought three sets over about two years. Takes them a several days to gut and get to the squeaker. They keep the skin around for months if we let them.

Dogs love them!
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
May dogs loved these. The squeaks last long enough but get lots of wear and tear. Worth money for the fun. My dog is 12 and still enjoys perfect size, weight, and flexibility.
