To Have or to Be? is one of the seminal books of the second half of the 20th century. Fromm's thesis is that two modes of existence struggle for the spirit of humankind: the having mode, which concentrates on material possessions, power, and aggression, and is the basis of the universal evils of greed, envy, and violence; and the being mode, which is based on love, the pleasure of sharing, and in productive activity.

In the latest fruit of a brilliant career, Michael Nagler argues that nonviolence - not just as a tactic but as a way of being - is the only way to unite deeply divided people and enable progressive movements and leaders of all stripes to fulfill their promise and potential. So many of the problems that beset us - war, poverty, isolation, and the climate crisis - have their roots in an old story about the universe: We are purposeless matter in a random void, and scarcity, competition, and violence are inevitable.

Un titre qui sonne comme une confidence, un murmure susurré dans le creux de l'oreille. Mais qu'on ne s'y trompe pas : nul secret ici qui ne doive être dissimulé et ne puisse être répété. Car ce qu'a à nous dire Emeric Lebreton dans ce nouvel ouvrage concerne le plus grand nombre c'est-à-dire le genre humain.

Unterwegs mit den großen Denkern der Antike: Wie schon der erfolgreiche Vorgängerband "Philosophie to go", so verknüpft auch "Weisheit to go" die Erfahrungen der Menschen von heute mit der Weisheit bedeutender antiker Philosophen aus Ost und West. Der Unruhe, dem Stress und der Oberflächlichkeit unseres Alltags setzt Albert Kitzler die zeitlosen Wahrheiten von Seneca, Sokrates, Buddha, Konfuzius, Laotse und anderen Philosophen aus Rom, Griechenland, Indien und China entgegen.

In the winelands of 16th-century Germany, Obsopoeus witnessed the birth of a poisonous new culture of bingeing, hazing, peer pressure, and competitive drinking. Alarmed, and inspired by the Roman poet Ovid's Art of Love, he wrote The Art of Drinking (1536), a how-to manual for drinking with pleasure and discrimination. In How to Drink, Michael Fontaine offers the first proper English translation of Obsopoeus' text, rendering his poetry into spirited, contemporary prose and uncorking a forgotten classic that will appeal to drinkers of all kinds and (legal) ages.

"Show me what you value more than your freedom and I'll show you the tool of your enslavement." 13 Rules provides readers with an inventory of philosophical insights and principles in order to live a free and meaningful life.

Why does race seem to color almost every feature of our moral and political universe? Why does a perpetual cycle of slavery - in all its political, intellectual, and cultural forms - continue to define the Black experience? And why is anti-Black violence such a predominant feature not only in the United States but around the world? These are just some of the compelling questions that animate Afropessimism, Frank B. Wilderson III’s seminal work on the philosophy of Blackness.

Illuminates the far-reaching harms of believing that natural means “good,” from misinformation about health choices to justifications for sexism, racism, and flawed economic policies. People love what’s natural: it’s the best way to eat, the best way to parent, even the best way to...

Das kommunistische Manifest ist wahrlich eines der bekanntesten Werke der Welt - doch wer kennt wirklich seinen Inhalt? Beim Hören wird klar, dass einiges heute überholt ist - während erstaunlich Vieles auch heute noch Bestand und Gültigkeit hat!

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?

Il nichilismo, la negazione di ogni valore, è anche quello che Nietzsche chiama "il più inquietante fra tutti gli ospiti". Si è nel mondo della tecnica e la tecnica non tende a uno scopo, non produce senso, non svela verità. Fa solo una cosa: funziona. Finiscono sullo sfondo, corrosi dal nichilismo, i concetti di individuo, identità, libertà, senso, ma anche quelli di natura, etica, politica, religione, storia, di cui si è nutrita l'età pretecnologica.

"In allem Wissen, auch im selbstvergessenen, im Schaffen wie im Betrachten, im Streit und in der Liebe, sind die gegenwärtig, die von sich selbst wissen." Auf "Von sich selbst wissen", seinem wohl persönlichsten Dokument, gerät Dieter Henrich aus dem Gespräch heraus ins Erzählen, wie auch ins spontane Philosophieren. Im Medium seiner Stimme verlässt er die Strenge seiner Begründungen in der Philosophie und schlägt den Bogen von seinen weltweit beachteten Forschungen und Konzeptionen zu seiner Kindheit in der Weimarer Republik und seiner Jugend bis 1945.

This book examines the idea that America needs much improvement in applying liberal ideas in its culture.

The Posifocus Perspective combines a realistic view of the way things are with an overly optimistic look at the way things could be, in order to empower positive life change. The result is an exponential increase in authentic relationships, meaningful productivity, and genuine happiness.

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.

Will you be richer or poorer? What does the future hold for you - and for the world? Supposedly, we're all getting richer, but many of us feel we’re becoming poorer. Why? One reason is our economy doesn’t even measure many kinds of wealth and ignores many costs. Clearly, clean air and water, good health, and civil liberties are valuable, but you won’t find these on any balance sheet. Our system’s incentives are to maximize short-term financial profits, and everything else is treated as if it doesn’t exist.

This book looks over the greatest battle of human history, the fight between rationalism and the oppressive regimes society constantly imposes on free thinkers. From ancient Greece through to the early 1900s. The author thought that rationalism had won a victory, but the modern listener will feel a creeping dread as parallels with movements in today's society are revealed.

Véritable guide de combat rhétorique, Schopenhauer nous invite, afin de convaincre en public, à ne reculer devant rien. Pour avoir toujours raison, il faut ainsi utiliser des stratagèmes tels que manipuler les réponses, utiliser une contre-proposition absurde, ou retourner les arguments de l'adversaire contre lui-même.

Cosa significa essere donna? Non alzare la voce, non ribellarsi. Obbedire al padre, al marito, alla società. Significa calma e sottomissione. Dover essere una brava bambina, poi una brava moglie e una brava madre. Eppure per qualcuna tutto questo non basta. Attraverso otto storie che spaziano dal mito alla contemporaneità, gli autori raccontano l'altra faccia della luna: e cioè come fin dagli albori dell'umanità, in saghe, leggende ed epopee letterarie, i modelli di donne forti sono sempre stati ridotti al silenzio.
