In this book for students in pop culture and philosophy, editors Auxier and Anderson (both philosophy, Southern Illinois U.) join musicians as well as scholars in music and pop culture, science, philosophy, and political science in contributing to this collection of 19 essays placing the music of rock's The Boss, Bruce Springsteen, within landscapes and conversations in philosophy. Some deal with individual songs, some with the rocker's biography, style, and overall body of work. Sample essay topics include Springsteen on the alienation and salvation of work and labor; the poet as virtuous and virtuoso; freedom, feminism, and collateral damage; fatalism in "Atlantic City,"., and philosophy and art against tyrants (considering both Socrates and Springsteen). A list of proper names found in Springsteen songs is included. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
