It's a fantstic series of books, well-written, and well researched, and I've got a few I'd like to see in the future, based on countless discussions I've had with friends and scholars (sometimes being the same).

- "The Devil's Advocate" and Philosophy
- The Wu-Tang Clan and Philosophy
- "Dead Poets Society" and Philosophy
- Metallica and Philosophy
- South Park and Philosophy
- Jimi Hendrix and Philosophy
- Depeche Mode and Philosophy
