Publisher's Summary
Qu'est-ce qu'une "vie bonne" après la "déconstruction" sans précédent des valeurs traditionnelles qui a marqué le XXème siècle ? Rares sont ceux qui voudraient, aujourd'hui encore, en Europe, mourir pour Dieu, pour la patrie, pour la révolution. Mais, la plupart sont prêts à se sacrifier pour leurs enfants ou leurs proches. Nous assistons à l'émergence d'une nouvelle figure du sacré qui va révolutionner nos existences : un sacré incarné désormais dans l'humanité.
Luc Ferry propose une philosophie du temps présent qui renouvelle notre conception des valeurs et dessine une forme inédite de spiritualité laïque.

Est-il possible d'envisager l'histoire de la philosophie en passant directement de Plotin à Descartes ? La réponse est non. Quand même on ne serait pas croyant, il est impossible de faire l'impasse sur la pensée chrétienne, ne serait-ce que pour comprendre le monde où nous vivons.

René Descartes, philosophe français par excellence, ouvre l'ère de la modernité. Sa volonté est de s'extraire des préjugés et des certitudes non prouvées, de passer l'intégralité du monde au crible du doute pour pouvoir penser par soi-même. Fondateur de la philosophie du sujet, il base tout l'édifice de la science et de la connaissance sur la réflexion humaine, le fameux cogito.

Dans ce livre audio, Luc Ferry raconte comment les plus grands penseurs de l'antiquité, Platon, Aristote ou encore les stoïciens, ont repris l'héritage de la mythologie grecque pour parvenir à proposer une magnifique doctrine de la sagesse, une spiritualité laïque qui traversera les siècles et qui nous parle encore aujourd'hui. Pour l'essentiel, il s'agit de montrer que la vie bonne réside dans la mise en harmonie de soi avec l'harmonie du monde.

Freud, figure majeure de ces penseurs que Paul Ricœur nomme "les philosophes du soupçon" est, on le sait, le père d'une approche radicalement nouvelle de l'expérience humaine : la psychanalyse. Le débat contemporain, polarisé sur la question de la validité scientifique des thèses freudiennes, oublie trop souvent d'en interroger le sens profond et d'en mesurer l'influence toujours vivante.

"Nul hasard si le premier livre écrit dans l'histoire de l'humanité, au XVIIIème siècle avant JC, "L'Epopée de Gilgamesh", raconte déjà l'affreuse souffrance qui s'empare des humains quand la mort vient leur enlever l'être aimé. Depuis, sages, théologiens et philosophes n'ont cessé de proposer des réponses, de chercher des solutions face à ce déchirement."

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.
