''Planet Simpson: How a Cartoon Masterpiece Documented an Era and Defined a Generation'' or ''Planet Simpson: How a Cartoon Masterpiece Defined a Generation'' is a non-fiction book about ''The Simpsons'', written by Chris Turner and originally published on October 12, 2004 by Random House. The book is partly a memoir and an exploration of the impact ''The Simpsons'' has had on popular culture. ==Background== ''Planet Simpson'' was written by Canadian author Chris Turner, who is a big fan of ''The Simpsons'', although "not even the biggest fan I know personally ... I think I am actually a pretty average hardcore fan. What I brought to it was a sense that because the show is as well put together as it is, it really offers a wide lens for looking at culture generally." Turner notes: "I can count on ''The Simpsons'' to provide me with a solid thirty minutes of truth, of righteous anger, of hypocrisies deflated and injustices revealed, of belly laughter and joy. It is food for my soul. Seriously. I think many ''Simpsons'' fans would agree. And that, as far as I'm concerned, makes it a kind of religion," he explains in the book. He had previously written an essay during his time at ''Shift'' entitled "The Simpsons Generation", which was syndicated across North America.〔 Turner wrote ''Planet Simpson'' because there had not been a book that had looked at the "genesis, past, characters and influence" of the show, only official episode guides or academic pieces.〔 ''Planet Simpson'' examines the show's satirical humor and its impact on pop culture.〔 It also looks at numerous episodes of the show. It features a foreword by Douglas Coupland.〔
