The Philosophy Resistance Squad

A philosophical romp about a wicked headmaster brought low by a group of kids who have learned the power of critical thinking. Milo starts secondary school at the prestigious
Secondary Training Institute for Lifelong
Employment. But he quickly discovers this is an
unpleasant and oppressive institution presided
over by the wicked Dr Pummelcrush - whose
mission is to crush the students’ capacity for
free thought. Then Milo meets Ursula, an old art teacher and
a philosopher. Using the philosophical
technique of Socratic dialogues, she teaches
Milo to ask hard questions and use analytical
thinking to undermine Pummelcrush’s evil
scheme of turning the students into perfect
mindless employees of the STIFLE
Corporation. A blend of thrilling fiction and philosophical
dialogues with a message about the importance
of critical thinking skills.
