Hales, Steven D., Jackson, Michael C.

SUMMARY

From the dawn of civilization, human beings have bent elbows together to consume beer. The stonecutters and laborers who built the Egyptian pyramids did it - and even today, what is more thirst quenching than a good beer at the end of a hard day? Beer is the most democratic of all beverages, making it an excellent vehicle for examining everyday life. " Beer & Philosophy" is written for beer lovers who want to think while they drink. It playfully explores a multitude of philosophical questions: What is the definition of an authentic beer and is its goodness context-dependent? Is it preferable to drink large quantities of Pabst Blue Ribbon or better to consume smaller amounts of Chimay Blue Grande Reserve? Can the existence of high quality brew be used to prove the theory of Intelligent Design? The contributors to this volume present intriguing and often humorous arguments for how complex philosophical concerns are intrinsically linked to something as prosaic as quaffing a pint with friends.Hales, Steven D. is the author of 'Beer and Philosophy: The Unexamined Beer Isn't Worth Drinking' with ISBN 9781405154307 and ISBN 1405154306.
