The book provided me of a greater sense of awareness of how the enemy too has plans for our lives. This book is essential reading for those who wish to bring something special to their marriage. I bought this book with neutral expectations. As Mary Hunt writes, "His impact goes well beyond his roots to persons of diverse faith perspectives who seek to hold together their sexuality with their faith. The vivid descriptions and syntax reminded me of some of the great British authors whom I had studied years before The research was extensive which made it enlightening as far as Scottish lore and equine descriptions.

Editor Steven M. In The Philosophy of Science Fiction Film, distinguished authors explore the storylines, conflicts, and themes of fifteen science fiction film classics, from Metropolis to The Matrix. Sanders's introduction presents an overview and evaluation of each essay and poses questions for readers to consider as they think about the films under discussion.The first section, "Enigmas of Identity and Agency," deals with the nature of humanity as it is portrayed in Blade Runner, Dark City, Frankenstein, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and Total Recall. Sanders and a group of outstanding scholars in philosophy, film studies, and other fields raise science fiction film criticism to a new level by penetrating the surface of the films to expose the underlying philosophical arguments, ethical perspectives, and metaphysical views. The final section, "Brave Newer World: Science Fiction Futurism," looks at visions of the future in Metropolis, The Matrix, Alphaville, and screen adaptations of George Orwell's 1984.. They also provide a medium through which questions about personal identity, moral agency, artificial consciousness, and other categories of experience can be addressed.
