The Man in the High Castle and Philosophy: Subversive Reports from Another RealityThe Man in the High Castle is an Amazon TV show, based on the Philip K. Dick novel, about an "alternate present" (beginning in the 1960s) in which Germany and Japan won World War II, with the former Western US occupied by Japan, the former Eastern U. S. occupied by Nazi Germany, and a small "neutral zone" between them. A theme of the story is that in this alternative world there is eager speculation, fueled by the illicit newsreel, The Grasshopper
The Man in the High Castle is an Amazon TV show, based on the Philip K. Dick novel, about an "alternate present" (beginning in the 1960s) in which Germany and Japan won World War II, with the former Western US occupied by Japan, the former Eastern U.S. occupied by Nazi Germany, and a small "neutral zone" between them. A theme of the story is that in this alternative world there is eager speculation, fueled by the illicit newsreel, The Grasshopper Lies Heavy, about how the world would have been different if America had won the war. In The Man in the High Castle and Philosophy, twenty-two professional thinkers look at philosophical issues raised by this ongoing enterprise in "alternative history." One question is whether it really made a profound difference that the Allies won the war, and exactly what differences in everyday life we may expect to arise from an apparent historical turning point. Could it be that some dramatic historical events have only superficial consequences, while some unnoticed occurrences lead to catastrophic results? Another topic is the quest for truth in a world of government misinformation, and how dissenting organizations can make headway.Binding Type: Paperback

Return policy stinks/decent starter set
Size: 12-pc, Color: Cherry
This is a decent set of what I would consider to be starter knives. We purchased a set for our vacation rental home and a second for our son when he was moving into his own place. They are basic knives that you could get away with if you aren’t doing a ton of cooking but you would probably want to fill in with a few other utility knives, as I did even for the rental, if you cook daily. They seemed sharp on the first few uses but they don’t hold the edge so maybe the steel isn’t the best quality. The real reason for three stars is due to the return policy from this seller. We accidentally ordered two sets for our son and the return shipping cost is a good percentage of the purchase price; it’s not like most Amazon sellers who have free returns. We ended up keeping them rather than lose money because we figure we will need to replace them soon.

Good value for money and a reliable set
Size: 12-pc, Color: Cherry
It is a great knife set for a first timer to own. I cook quite a bit and it is helpful to have a set of knives that can get the job done. I like the steak knives as well. They will come in handy when we have guests for dinner.

Fantastic build quality, fantastic price
Color: Cream White
I needed something fast for a chicken and dumplings recipe. Everything in store was outrageously expensive for the size I needed. Got on amazon and found this guy. Nice and large and build quality is excellent. Zero imperfections in the enamel. Heats evenly and is a dream to cook in, nothing sticks easy cleaning. For the price (about 50% less then anything in store) was an absolute deal. Highly recommended.
Just a heads up tho...this thing is heavy. I dont think its heavier then a similar sized enamel cast iron dutch oven tho.

Great value and great quality
Color: Cream White
Excellent heavy-duty quality and it looks great sitting out on my stovetop. I've prepared several meals plus baked bread in the oven in this and it's easy to clean and holding up really well. Very reasonably priced too!
