Hace 90 años, uno de los personajes intelectuales fundamentales del siglo XX concretaba en "El malestar en la cultura" la idea de que entre la cultura -vista sobre todo como aglutinante y elemento fundamental para la vida en sociedad- y las pulsaciones íntimas de la psique humana, existen...

In a time when division is treated as a given, The Sovereign Perspective challenges the assumption that conflict and polarization are unavoidable. HRH Prince Gharios El Chemor of Ghassan Al-Nu’Man VIII dissects the root causes of today’s fractured world—political extremism, ideological rigidity, media manipulation, and the erosion of critical thinking. Rather than taking sides, he explores how societies can foster cooperation without compromising individuality or reason.

Birth of the White Man is a philosophical look at the intention behind America's founding in order to educate and encourage dialogue about the system of racism that exists as a result.

For 2500 years people have been debating how literature changes lives, and versions of those debates continue today in classrooms, school and library boardrooms, and state legislatures. The life-transforming potential of books caught the attention of Dante, Cervantes, Jane Austen, Percy Shelley, and many others. Better Living through Literature surveys what the great thinkers have said on the subject, from Plato and Aristotle to Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud to W. E. B Du Bois, Harold Bloom, and Martha Nussbaum.

In this little audiobook will be found a few hints on the art of service which I have gathered from my elders and from my own experience. I am still trying to follow these hints, sometimes successfully, more often unsuccessfully; but I feel that they are all true, and I am thankful to be permitted to share them with others who - like myself - are learning how to serve.

Digital Consciousness is a philosophical dialogue into the evolution of consciousness within the digital terrain and the legacy footprint on the human family. Exploring the emotional 'digital' frequency of self is a concept that Tenille Bentley has given a great deal of thought to, and some of the answers to these questions and more may surprise you. While not everyone wants to ‘change the world’ we do all have the power at our fingertips now to radically affect change for someone, somewhere, some place. Recognising this ability and harnessing how we use the internet is the basis for this book.

Written from the perspective of seniors enjoying the fourth quarter of life, even as they wonder about sudden-death overtime. Often funny, occasionally melancholy, but always heartfelt, these universal reflections on life are the perfect excuse for family communication across the generations. And a reason for creating your own family history. Past, present, and future. But don't feel left out if you're a much younger listener.

When Özlem Cekic became the first Muslim MP in the Danish Parliament, her email inbox was inundated with hate mail and threats, and her gut reaction was to delete and ignore each abusive message. But eventually, she decided to take a risk. She started replying to each message and inviting the senders to meet and engage in dialogue over coffee. And with time, understanding, and patience, she began to make a difference, both in the lives of those who hated her before even meeting her, and in her own life.

Uma coleção de ensaios que propõe um olhar radical acerca das prisões. Mais do que um sobrevoo em cinco décadas de ativismo, Abolição é um documento histórico que comprova a relevância de Angela Y. Davis para o debate contemporâneo.

The purpose of this book, and that of others that will follow in the ARS, is to shed light on certain practices, structures, systems, and institutions that we have adopted in Africa and that we continue to follow, even though they may not be tangibly furthering our progress and development as individuals, as communities, as nations, and as a Continent.

En Proyecto Blue Beam al Descubierto, explora la inquietante posibilidad de que una élite poderosa esté a punto de orquestar la manipulación global definitiva. Utilizando tecnologías avanzadas como proyecciones holográficas, redes satelitales, inteligencia artificial y técnicas de manipulación psicológica, esta teoría de conspiración sugiere que la humanidad podría ser engañada para entregar sus libertades ante un evento extraterrestre o divino completamente falso.

南北戦争以来の「内戦」は起こるのか。ウクライナは見放されるのか。日米安保は破棄されるのか。第一次トランプ政権の終焉、バイデン当選、「Qアノン」による連邦議事堂襲撃から約4年。

"Usando seu vasto conhecimento e as reflexões da Escola Austríaca de Economia, Hans-Hermann Hoppe aborda, ao longo de Uma Breve História do Homem, duas questões principais: qual é a origem da família e da propriedade privada? Como teve início a Revolução Industrial? Os ouvintes verão que o desenvolvimento do direito à propriedade assegurado e do livre mercado foi essencial para o progresso da humanidade.

Every week, political pundits publish books promoting one side (the pundit’s) as good, and the other side as evil. Whether the pundit promotes a liberal or conservative view, the book convinces zealots, and annoys everyone else. For the rest of us, we see and feel the problem. Psychologists teach us why and how the problem exists. Politicians leverage the problem to gain personal political advantage.

È PROPRIO VERO CHE SE AMIAMO IL NOSTRO LAVORO NON LAVOREREMO MAI UN GIORNO NELLA NOSTRA VITA O SIAMO SOTTO L’EFFETTO DI UN INCANTESIMO? “Oggi sembra impossibile fare del lavoro – che è diventato una vera e propria tortura di massa – uno strumento di educazione al vivere comune. Eppure è una delle poche strade rimaste per non autodistruggerci in una manciata di anni. Ma per dare nuova dignità al lavoro, bisogna cominciare con il metterlo seriamente in discussione.” Efficienti, dinamici, creativi. Ma anche: sovraccarichi, avviliti, depressi.

Alle Welt redet davon, die Natur zu schützen. Um dies zu können, müssten wir zumindest erfahren können, was Natur ist und sie uns bedeutet. Dieses Gespür ist uns abhandengekommen. Der renommierte Physiker Ulf Danielsson zeigt den blinden Fleck der modernen Naturwissenschaften: Wissenschaftler rechnen und rechnen, aber der Mensch, mit all seinen Sinnen, spielt keine Rolle mehr in den Naturwissenschaften. Doch dabei ist das Universum keinesfalls nur Mathematik. Wir leben in Welt und Weltall, aber nicht in den abstrakten Gleichungen. Wir sind Lebewesen und keine Maschinen.

¿Qué tienen en común la desaparición de las variedades de manzana, la aparición de políticos en programas de entrevistas, el fundamentalismo religioso y el mercado del arte y la música? La diversidad se reduce en todas partes, lo inesperado y lo desajustado se rechaza. En lugar del contenido peculiar, hay una supuesta autenticidad: ya no es el "qué" lo que cuenta, sino solo el "cómo". En la actualidad, la complejidad, la pluralidad y la diversidad ya no se perciben como un enriquecimiento.

After spending my last 58 years on this planet as a student at the School of Hard Knocks, I decided to jot down—spill my guts, really—all the pain and joy I've experienced throughout life. And I decided to call this little gem of wisdom The Way of the Ray. Starting with the trials and tribulations that formed my existence here on Mother Earth, I try to dissect and explain why I came to be where I am in life. And maybe how you, with a little understanding of your fellow humans, can make a path for yourself in this crazy and less than perfect world.
