Dungeons and Dragons and Philosophy: Raiding the Temple of Wisdom

Dungeons and Dragons and Philosophy presents twenty-one chapters by different writers, all D&D aficionados but with starkly different insights and points of view. The book is divided into three parts. The first, Heroic Tier: The Ethical Dungeon-Crawler, explores what D&D has to teach us about ethics. Part II, Paragon Tier: Planes of Existence, arouses a new sense of wonder about both the real world and the collaborative world game players create. The third part, Epic Tier: Leveling Up, is at the crossroads of philosophy and the exciting new field of Game Studies.
