书籍简介:
What explains the huge popular following for "Dexter", currently the most-watched show on TV, which sympathetically depicts a serial killer driven by a cruel compulsion? Although Dexter Morgan kills only killers, he is not a vigilante but a charming psychopath. His gory appetite is controlled by 'Harry's Code', which limits his victims to those who have gotten away with murder, and his job as a blood-spatter expert for the Miami police department gives him the inside track on those targets. In "Dexter and Philosophy", an elite team of philosophers put Dexter's deeds under the microscope. Since Dexter is driven to ritual murder by his 'Dark Passenger', can he be blamed for killing, especially as he only murders other murderers? Does Dexter fit the profile of the familiar fictional type of the superhero? Why does Dexter long to be a normal human being, and why can't he accomplish this apparently simple goal?
