What to Expect When You're Dead chronicles the ways ancient peoples answered questions such as: How to achieve a good death and afterlife? What's the best way to dispose of a body? Do the dead face a postmortem judgement—and where do they end up? Do the dead have bodies in the afterlife—and can they eat, drink, and have sex? And what can the living do to stay on good terms with the nonliving?

Wherever there’s a rule, there is someone with the power to apply or ignore it—or add to it, in the interest of justice. From enforcing chores to issuing life sentences, decision-makers deliver flawed and sometimes arbitrary outcomes. But is their use of discretion good or bad overall? As a society, should we seek to minimize or maximize discretion, with all its potential for bias and other kinds of human error? Reframing our understanding of justice and ethics, philosopher Barry Lam argues that while use of discretion can never be perfect, removing it has even more problematic effects.

‘Wat de twijfel is voor de wetenschap,’ schreef de Deense filosoof Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), ‘dat is de ironie voor het persoonlijk leven.’ Maar in het maatschappelijk debat leidt ironie al gauw tot onverschilligheid. En dat wist Kierkegaard ook. De ironicus maakt van alles een grap en neemt niets meer serieus, ‘teneinde zichzelf te redden’.In onze gepolariseerde en geridiculiseerde debatcultuur geldt de waarschuwing van Kierkegaard meer dan ooit.

તમે માનો કે ના માનો પણ જિંદગીનું સત્ય એ છે કે, ૯૦ ટકાથી વધારે પુરુષ તેમજ મહિલાઓ ભારતમાં જ નહીં બલ્કે સંપૂર્ણ વિશ્વમાં પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા. જ્યારે આપણે પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા, તો એક વિચિત્ર પ્રકારની ગુંગળામણ ઉત્પન્ન થાય છે અને મન વિચલિત રહે છે. આ પુસ્તક સંપૂર્ણ માનવ જાતિના ફાયદા માટે લખવામાં આવી છે, જેથી દરેક વાચકને એ જાણ થઈ શકે કે, ફક્ત એ જ નહીં બલ્કે લાખો-કરોડો વ્યક્તિ પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાઓથી નથી કહી શકતા.

"The communists do not preach morality at all"; this line from The Communist Manifesto might seem to settle the question of whether Marxism has anything to offer moral philosophy. Yet, Marx issued both trenchant critiques of "bourgeois" morality and thundering condemnations of capitalism's "vampire-like" destructiveness. He decried commodity-exchange for corroding our ability to value one another for who we are, not how much our lives could be traded away for.

God Money, God Power, Where is God Love? is not about religion, and it is not about politics. It is a message I wanted to share with the world that money is not as important if our hearts are filled with so much love. Love leads us to understanding and shows gratitude toward others. I express my deepest love for humanity, and my heart is open for all the children in this world, believing that these young children are the ones who open the doors to a better future. This cannot be done by one person alone. It starts in the home with proper guidance and values as the foundation.

Imagine this: You’ve just hired someone for a job, but instead of showing initiative, they spend more time scrolling on their phone, wondering why they’re not the boss yet. Or perhaps you’ve seen a viral video of someone celebrated for doing… absolutely nothing. Meanwhile, your own hard work feels undervalued in a culture that rewards mediocrity. Sound familiar? In today’s world, intelligence, skill, and grit seem to take a back seat to viral fame and unearned entitlement. You’re left wondering: When did ambition become a dirty word?

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.

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.

Pois é isso que fazem, neste livro, o aclamado professor Clóvis de Barros Filho e o premiado escritor Ilan Brenman. Com um toque de irreverência, boas histórias e muitos questionamentos, eles falam de temas de ontem, hoje e sempre, que fazem parte do cotidiano de todos nós: justiça, sabedoria, felicidade, bem x mal, ética, educação, liberdade e amizade.

We are able to configure privacy settings on our devices and social media platforms, but we know our efforts pale in comparison to the scale of surveillance capitalism and algorithmic manipulation. In our hyperconnected era, many have begun to wonder whether it is still possible to live a private life, or whether it is no longer worth fighting for. The Right to Oblivion argues incisively and persuasively that we still can and should strive for privacy, though for different reasons than we might think.
