Trade paperback. The philosophical discussions raised by adult cartoon "Rick & Morty" are explored with close attention to the show, considering for example Rick's rejection of God, religion and meaning in favour of the answers present in science and technology.

Résumé
A dysfunctional group of philosophers and thinkers have created a book that will drag readers across the multiverse, through fractures in time, and down into philosophical depths that have never been reached by merely considering an irreverent sci-fi cartoon like Rick and Morty.
