Description:
The perfect companion to Lewis Carroll's classic book and director
Tim Burton's March 2010 remake of Alice in Wonderland
Alice?s Adventures in Wonderland has fascinated children
and adults alike for generations. Why does Lewis Carroll introduce
us to such oddities as blue caterpillars who smoke hookahs, cats
whose grins remain after their heads have faded away, and a White
Queen who lives backwards and remembers forwards? Is it all just
nonsense? Was Carroll under the influence? This book probes the
deeper underlying meaning in the Alice books, and reveals a world
rich with philosophical life lessons. Tapping into some of the
greatest philosophical minds that ever lived?Aristotle, Hume,
Hobbes, and Nietzsche?Alice in Wonderland and Philosophy explores
life?s ultimate questions through the eyes of perhaps the most
endearing heroine in all of literature.
Looks at compelling issues such as perception and reality as
well as how logic fares in a world of lunacy, the Mad Hatter,
clocks, and temporal passage
Offers new insights into favorite Alice in Wonderland
characters and scenes, including the Mad Hatter and his tea party,
the violent Queen of Hearts, and the grinning Cheshire Cat
Accessible and entertaining, Alice in Wonderland and
Philosophy will enrich your experience of Alice's timeless
adventures with new meaning and fun.

Amazing
Format: Paperback
It’s very academic—what I mean by that is that if you need to be well-educated in psychology to GRASP *everything*… I am not well-educated in psychology (I minored in it and love reading easier books on it), but I LOVE this book. This woman is brilliant

one of the best books I’ve read
Format: Kindle
This book is transformative in how I view everything. There are two categories: people who need to read this book and people who need to read it again.

Started w/ audiobook, now I'm ordering the print too
Format: Paperback
This book is GREAT!! The integration of theory she uses to support her claims is masterful. I began listening to the audiobook, because it was cheaper & I go through a ton of counseling & psych books. I am a grad student in social work, and I'm also a therapy client trying to heal myself.
I appreciate that this book targets "chronic shame" which as a central experience to a bunch of issues. The hundreds of books and articles I've researched seem like they were mostly ALL working back to this issue.
In a psychology culture that is big on cognitive and chemical solutions to mental health, the relational approach that she emphasizes is critical to the healing process. I appreciate the research she uses from object relations, affect regulation, interpersonal, etc. I purchased the hard copy because 1. I can't underline/highlight an audiobook and 2. I want a copy of the references of theorists and study's that she draws from, because they are pure gold.
All therapists need to understand the contents of this book! Unless you are perfectly fine offering band aid solutions. Clients and self-helpers beware. It's not triggering in terms of content, it is activating in the sense that she describes the felt experience of shame SO WELL. I could locate my own felt sense of shame which is, by default, unpleasant. Some stabilization and a decent therapeutic connection is probably necessary before cracking this book open. But that's why I love it. I needed to go deeper and get the core issues. And this book is like a map that guides you right to it.

A must read.

The best book I have read in a very long time. Transformative. I am slowly processing my new understanding of my relational trauma so well detailed in this book.
