In this witty and entertaining excursion through previously uncharted
areas of the world of Pooh, John Tyerman Williams sets out to prove
beyond all reasonable doubt that the whole of Western philosophy - from
the cosmologists of ancient Greece to twentieth-century existentialism
in this century - may be found in Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh
Corner. reminding us of Nietzsche's doctrine of Great Recurrence,
Williams throws fresh light on Pooh's circular pursuit of the Woozle -
not to mention the Empirical test of a pot of honey, right to the
bottom.
This book confirms, once and for all, what many have
long suspected: that Pooh is a bear of Enormous Brain.
