World According to Star Wars The

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFULLY REVISED & UPDATED WITH A NEW EPILOGUEDelightful.―The EconomistThere’s Santa Claus Shakespeare Mickey Mouse the Bible and then there’s Star Wars. Nothing quite compares to sitting down with a young child and hearing the sound of John Williams’s score as those beloved golden letters fill the screen. In this fun erudite and often moving book Cass R. Sunstein explores the lessons of Star Wars as they relate to childhood fathers the Dark Side rebellion and redemption. As it turns out Star Wars also has a lot to teach us about constitutional law economics and political uprisings. In rich detail Sunstein tells the story of the films’ wildly unanticipated success and explores why some things succeed while others fail. Ultimately Sunstein argues Star Wars is about freedom of choice and our never-ending ability to make the right decision when the chips are down. Written with buoyant prose and considerable heart The World According to Star Wars shines a bright new light on the most beloved story of our time.
