Overview

Jean-Paul Sartre once declared waterskiing to be ā€œthe ideal limit of aquatic sports.ā€ Aaron James, who is both an avid surfer and a professor of philosophy, vigorously disagrees. In these pages, he presents his surferā€™s worldview as a foil to Sartreā€™s, along the way elucidating such philosophical categories as freedom, being, phenomenology, morality, epistemology, and even the emerging values of what he terms ā€œleisure capitalism.ā€
Ā 
In developing his unique surferā€™s philosophy, he draws from surf culture and lingoā€”and engages with philosophers from Aristotle to Wittgenstein. In the process, he speaks to those of us in search of personal and social meaningā€”particularly in our current anxious momentā€”by way of real, authentic philosophy. In or out of the water.
