24 and Philosophy is a book you just can't do without. It's
all here, folks: the reason Presidents trust him; how Jack cuts
through the lies and ambiguities; why he puts his life on the line
for others; and how he knows which knee cap to blow out to get that
all-important next lead. With the help of twenty "24 crazed"
philosophers, you'll figure out what makes this guy tick, and much
much more.
