Byung-Chul Han si focalizza con particolare attenzione sul disagio dell'individuo tardo-moderno nella società odierna, caratterizzata dalla prestazione, dalla competizione e, soprattutto, dall'appiattimento delle contraddizioni e dal venir meno della negatività. Le analisi sviluppate mettono in luce, nello specifico, come l'ossessione dell'iperattività e la tendenza sempre piú forte al multitasking arrivino a produrre disturbi di natura depressiva e nevrotica.

La proclamación neoliberal de la libertad se manifiesta en realidad como un imperativo paradójico: sé libre. Domina una economía de la supervivencia en la que cada uno es su propio empresario. El neoliberalismo, con sus desinhibidos impulsos narcisistas del yo y del rendimiento, es el infierno de lo igual, una sociedad de la depresión y el cansancio compuesta por sujetos aislados.

A professor emeritus of philosophy at Princeton University, Harry G. Frankfurt penned a surprise smash hit with his New York Times best seller On Bullshit, which insightfully and wittily captured the human capacity for, and tendency toward, BS. Now he examines the other side of the coin with this equally entertaining and provocative follow-up.

Wonder and awe lie at the heart of life's most profound questions. Wonderstruck shows how these emotions respond to our fundamental need to make sense of ourselves and everything around us, and how they enable us to engage with the world as if we are experiencing it for the first time.

More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle said: "let there be a law that no deformed child shall live." This idea is alive and well today. During the past century, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. argued that the United States can forcibly sterilize intellectually disabled women and philosopher Peter Singer argued for the right of parents to euthanize certain cognitively disabled infants. The Life Worth Living explores how and why such arguments persist by investigating the exclusion of and discrimination against disabled people across the history of Western moral philosophy.

Esta "Breve historia del mundo" no es un manual al uso: es una epístola-diálogo en un tono llano y accesible, sin los formalismos y las rigideces de los textos académicos, pero también sin el barniz de aparente pedagogía que da una voz de falsete a tantos audiolibros infantiles y juveniles. La perspectiva y el género elegidos por Gombrich convierten su libro en el antecesor moderno de otros tratados, como "El mundo de Sofía" de Jostein Gaarder o "Ética para Amador" de Fernando Savater.

The New York Times bestselling coauthor of Sex at Dawn explores the ways in which “progress” has perverted the way we live—how we eat, learn, feel, mate, parent, communicate, work, and die—in this “engaging, extensively documented, well-organized, and thought-provoking” (Booklist)...

In thirteen iconoclastic essays, Slavoj Žižek disrupts the death-grip that neoliberalists, Trumpian populists, toxic self-improvement industries and accelerationists alike have established on the idea of progress. Anatomizing what is lost when opponents of the future are allowed to define it, Žižek ruthlessly exposes what different visions of progress exclude or sacrifice and the dynamics of desire, denial and disavowal at work in Hollywood blockbusters, Buddhist economics, decolonization movements and other engines of vision.

« La sociedad del cansancio » puede considerarse una de las obras más emblemáticas de Byung-Chul Han. En ella, con una visión casi profética, se presentan los grandes temas que el filósofo surcoreano desarrollaría luego durante más de una década, alcanzando celebridad mundial. En conmemoración de toda esa trayectoria filosófica, y por su rotunda actualidad, volvemos a presentar ahora esta obra en una nueva traducción.

Con esta premisa, El mito del fracaso español hace un recorrido, desde los años 80 del pasado siglo hasta hoy, por la simbología patria, los discursos sobre el pasado imperial, la obsesión por la decadencia, el debate de «las dos Españas», los discursos de odio a lo español o la crisis del régimen del 78. Un libro esclarecedor sobre cómo las interpretaciones de nuestro pasado, nos gusten o no, siguen ejerciendo una poderosa influencia en el modo en que los españoles nos percibimos, cómo entendemos la política o la capacidad para resolver nuestros problemas en tiempos líquidos.

Have you heard that language is violence and that science is sexist? Have you read that certain people shouldn't practice yoga? Or been told that being obese is healthy, that there is no such thing as biological sex, or that only White people can be racist? Are you confused by these ideas, and do you wonder how they have managed to challenge the logic of Western society? In this probing volume, Helen Pluckrose and James Lindsay document the evolution of the dogma that informs these ideas, from its coarse origins in French postmodernism to its refinement within activist academic fields.

Vividly written, The Infidel and the Professor is a compelling account of a great friendship of two towering Enlightenment thinkers that had great consequences for modern thought. David Hume is widely regarded as the most important philosopher ever to write in English, but during his lifetime, he was attacked as "the Great Infidel" for his skeptical religious views and deemed unfit to teach the young. In contrast, Adam Smith was a revered professor of moral philosophy and is now often hailed as the founding father of capitalism.

Revolution for Christmas 2026: Learning from Che offers a powerful and timely examination of Ernesto “Che” Guevara's ideas—rooted in compassion, courage, and the belief that ordinary people can help shape a better world.
