{"product_id":"coming-from-nothing-matthew-mckeever-9781785356193","title":"Coming from Nothing: A Thought Experiment Novella","description":"Coming From Nothing is a tragi-comic love story concerned with notions of identity, such as Judith Butler's idea that sexual identity isn't determined by the body, and John Locke's that personal identity is a question of memory. The first novella in Zero Books new series of Thought Experiment Novellas, these are books that work out philosophical arguments in their plots. Whether focusing on William James' determinism, Descartes' mind\/body dualism, or Judith Butler's argument for gender performativity, these short books attempt to flesh out philosophical problems. They are stories wherein philosophical ideas have consequences, at least in the lives of the characters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew McKeever\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1785356194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781785356193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zer0 Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Matthew McKeever","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088804458751,"sku":"9781785356193","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8b2da418-0653-4fb0-916a-50072abc6959.jpg?v=1769106656","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-from-nothing-matthew-mckeever-9781785356193","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
