Ender's Game and Philosophy: The Logic Gate Is Down

I have several of the Series and have not been let down yet. The book or series of books that are the subject of “The logic gate is down” is “Ender’s Game.” The focus is not really on the military; however, he nails many of the situations. From the commander’s intent to training and target of opportunity, I felt that I was in the BNCOC and ANCOC while reading the story. The story takes place in the future. The enemy attacked humankind twice, and maybe the third time is on the horizon. We are looking for a great leader like the ones from the past to carry us to victory. The question is how to go about finding and preparing the person for the future. We are more interested in Andrew "Ender" Wiggin’s relationship to family and the people around him. The big picture is finding out who/ what we are. That is where the first book ends, but there are many more to hone the philosophy and maybe modify it some. This book, “Ender’s Game and Philosophy”, which is a series of separate essays, helps show us what we may have glossed over in the enthusiasm of the story. We get quotes and snippets from other philosophers, as the series editor William Irwin and the editor Kevin S. Decker assume we have a classical background. If you do not have a classical education, this book will bring you close. So be prepared to fill in the missing slots in your library. It will be necessary to read the notes at the end of each chapter, as in a textbook, as there is no consolidated bibliography at the end of the book. When you finish this book, you will feel that you want to write your chapter and wonder why they did not ask you.
