'Winnie-the-Pooh lived in the forest all by himself under the name of Sanders and he had the name over the door in gold letters.' Why Sanders and why gold letters? Is the first letter of his title, which is hidden by the doorbell an M for Mr or a D for Doctor? Might not the gold letters stand for the brass plate of a physician or a psychotherapist? Discover the answers to the author's hypothesis that Pooh is none other than a super-psychologist.
This author sets out to prove that the whole of western philosophy, from the cosmologists of Ancient Greece to the existentialists of the twentieth century may be found in the pages of "Winnie-the-Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner". He attempts to show how the "Great Bear" explains and often illuminates the most profound ideas of the greatest thinkers of history, from Plato, Hume and Kant to Nietzsche, Heidegger and Sartre. The book is illustrated with a selection of E.H. Shepard's original drawings.
