Das "Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei" ist die wohl bekannteste Schrift von Karl Marx und Friedrich Engels. Wie wohl kaum ein anderes Dokument seiner Zeit lässt das "Manifest" die politisch aufgeladene Stimmung nachempfinden, die damals um 1848 herum während des zu Ende gehenden Vormärz in Europa kurz vor Ausbruch der Februarrevolution in Paris geherrscht hat. Wer sich für das "Kommunistische Manifest" interessiert und mehr über die Hintergründe seiner Entstehung erfahren möchte, wird in diesem Hörbuch reichlich Material finden.

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.

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.

In The Shape of Change, Dynamic Materialism and Adaptive Realism are introduced as complementary frameworks that redefine how we understand and navigate the complexities of interconnected systems in a rapidly changing world. Dynamic Materialism emphasizes the material and structural forces that drive systemic behavior, focusing on feedback loops, constraints, and emergent properties that govern the evolution of ecosystems, economies, and technologies.

Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Solitude by Michael Harris, read by Kerry Shale. Solitude is a rapidly vanishing experience. Our society now embraces sharing like never before: time alone is being forced out of our lives by the constant pings of smartphones and prods of social media. But what if being alone still has something to offer us - something we have forgotten, but that we still desperately need?

One of the two major philosophical traditions of the 20th century was linguistic analysis, derived largely from Wittgenstein. The other, diametrically opposed, came from Heidegger, and its fundamental question was: ‘What is the meaning of existence?’ For Heidegger, this was not a query that could simply be ‘analysed away’ - it was beyond the reach of logic or reason. This was the primary ‘given’ of every individual life.

Los filósofos griegos construyeron grandes discusiones sobre la realidad que continúan vigentes y siguen inspirando a los pensadores de hoy. Desde las enseñanzas matemáticas de Pitágoras, pasando por las ideas de Platón y Aristóteles, han sido fundamentales para el desarrollo intelectual hasta nuestros días. Hoy, sin embargo, ese papel lo ha adoptado una nueva clase de visionarios.

Hvad vil det sige at være menneske? Svend Brinkmann giver svar på dette spørgsmål ved at fortælle historien om den unge, introverte Andreas, der tager på dannelsesrejse gennem Europa. På sin rejse bliver drengen klogere på, hvad mennesket er for et væsen - både på godt og ondt. Han møder mennesker undervejs, som gør ham klogere på livet, men han bliver også stimuleret af at stå ansigt til ansigt med berømte værker fra Europas kunst- og kulturhistorie, der fortæller noget om, hvem vi er som mennesker.

Denostado, incomprendido, relegado durante siglos al olvido, Epicuro propuso con su filosofía un camino para alcanzar algo tan esquivo para sus contemporá- neos como lo sigue siendo para nosotros: la felicidad. Y lo hizo de una forma simple y coherente, alejándose a un tiempo de la búsqueda incesante del placer—empresa vana, con la que no logramos sino acrecentar más y más nuestros deseos—y del ascetismo extremo propio de doctrinas rígidas como el estoicismo.

Their stories range from startling to shocking to touching. Sweet Street is an exceptional documentary which provides the reader ...

Desde que suena el despertador nos enfrentamos a dilemas éticos. Los hay modernos y clásicos. Grandes y pequeños. Pero todos ellos definen nuestra época. ¿Cuántos bolis puedo llevarme de la oficina sin que sea éticamente reprobable? ¿Compro una cerveza por una app o bajo al supermercado? ¿Puedo añadirme cinco centímetros de altura en Tinder si todo el mundo lo hace? ¿Existe el porno ético? ¿Por qué puedo comerme un cerdo, pero no un perro? ¿Está bien pegar a un nazi? ¿Pueden gustarme a estas alturas las películas de Woody Allen? ¿Y el reguetón?

Adventures in Thinking follows Emily Maroutian’s previous philosophical books, A Second Opinion and The Process of I. In the same vein, it delves into the process of the human mind and how we create, contribute, and ultimately change our experiences and the world around us through the power of our thinking. The first part of the book explores the personal mind and how it becomes limited through conditioned thinking and unconscious patterns of behavior. Our repeated thoughts lead to repeated behavior, which result in repeated experiences. The personal mind creates individual and global ...

Bullshit Comparisons will challenge the way you think about rankings, charts, and other marketing and political tools designed to create odious and dangerous comparisons.

You may think that a simple concept like Truth should be easy to describe and easy to understand. But like many simple concepts, it becomes so much more complicated the further you go. Author Drew Weatherhead endeavors to display the complexity of the objective Truth that we're forced to navigate from our subjective viewpoints through a variety of meta constructs. These Layers of Truth that make up the whole of our reality can help us recognize how we perceive the parts of it in which we exist.

¿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.

It is not often that something so simple as one plus one equals three comes along to change your life. Of course, the equation itself is powerless, so this audiobook sets out to explore the increase in human potential. This can occur when the idea of interdependence, being the backbone of this formula, is allowed to freely intermingle with all aspects of life.
