There’s Santa Claus, Shakespeare, Mickey Mouse, the Bible, & then there’s Star Wars. Nothing quite compares to sitting down with a young child & hearing the sound of John Williams’s score as those beloved golden letters fill the screen. In this fun, erudite, & often moving book, Cass R. Sunstein explores the lessons of Star Wars as they relate to childhood, fathers, the Dark Side, rebellion, & redemption. As it turns out, Star Wars also has a lot to teach us about constitutional law, economics, & political uprisings.

In rich detail, Sunstein tells the story of the films’ wildly unanticipated success & explores why some things succeed while others fail. Ultimately, Sunstein argues, Star Wars is about freedom of choice & our never-ending ability to make the right decision when the chips are down. Written with buoyant prose & considerable heart, The World According to Star Wars shines a bright new light on the most beloved story of our time.
