In Truth, best-selling author Michael Shermer cuts through the noise to argue that not only does truth still matter—but also that it’s essential to our individual and collective flourishing. This sharp-sighted and accessible book provides a framework for thinking more clearly in an age clouded by doubt and distortion.

Philipp Hübl führt intelligent und unterhaltsam in die moderne Philosophie ein und gibt klare Antworten auf die großen Fragen des Lebens: Gibt es Gott? Kann man ohne Gefühle leben? Sind wir frei in unseren Entscheidungen? Haben Träume eine Funktion? Warum ist uns Schönheit so wichtig? Hat der Tod einen Sinn? Wer dem weißen Kaninchen folgt, sieht das Wunderland der Wirklichkeit mit neuen Augen. Es ist eine Jagd mit reicher Beute, hin und her, querweltein, durchs ganze Leben und zurück.

The truth about culture, immigrants wont say about their own people. Regardless of the reasons, none of them should hold higher value than the inevitable truth about the disruptive and dissonant experiences of immigrants who refuse to integrate into the dominant society in which they are expected to live, operate, and function in. Culture plays a significant role in our identity as a collective people, however, at what cost should culture be followed and practiced?

Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) is now generally recognized as one of the most influential thinkers of the last century. This Very Short Introduction explores his extraordinary life and thought. His complex system of criticism is difficult for many, but it is coherent in its combination of a Judaic theological perspective with cultural Marxism. Benjamin's distinctive approach considered literary criticism, visual media, and the impact of cosmopolitanism. This innovative messianic understanding of history would go on to inspire countless critics and even entire schools of academia.

Da dicembre 2021 a luglio 2022 la più autorevole figura internazionale a disposizione dell'Italia, l'ex presidente della Banca Centrale Europea Mario Draghi, è passato dall'essere il presidente del Consiglio con un piede e mezzo al Quirinale alla rappresentazione vivente di come il Palazzo sia in grado di logorare chiunque.

El nuevo ensayo de José Sánchez Tortosa nos ofrece una profunda y poco complaciente radiografía de la sociedad actual. En él disecciona algunos de los fenómenos más inquietantes de nuestra época: el auge del tribalismo identitario, la extensión del narcisismo a ultranza, la desconexión de amplísimas capas de población respecto al saber humanístico y filosófico, la degradación de la educación, la feudalización digital, el infantilismo y la sentimentalización de la política, la ruptura de una idea compartida de ciudadanía, las manifestaciones renovadas de antisemitismo…

In the age of comfort, a quiet collapse is happening inside people—not in governments, not in economies, but in the minds of ordinary adults who can no longer handle ordinary life. The Weak Generation tears apart the myths we hide behind and exposes why emotional weakness is rising while real resilience is disappearing.

En nombre de la lucha contra la discriminación, esta religión surgida en las universidades estadounidenses predica verdades bastante inusuales: su «teoría de género» sostiene que el sexo y el cuerpo no existen, y que solo cuenta la conciencia. Su «teoría crítica de la raza» afirma que todos los blancos son racistas, pero que ninguna persona «racializada» puede serlo. Su «epistemología del punto de vista» sostiene que todo conocimiento está localizado y que no existe ciencia objetiva, ni siquiera en las disciplinas tradicionales.

Changing the world is difficult. One reason is that the most important problems, like climate change, racism, and poverty, are structural. They emerge from our collective practices: laws, economies, history, culture, norms, and built environments. The dilemma is that there is no way to make structural change without individual people making different—more structure-facing—decisions.

Across society, people sensed a quiet dislocation — a feeling that the world they knew no longer matched the world they inhabited. Institutions wavered. Narratives fractured. The pace of life accelerated beyond comprehension. Beneath the noise, something deeper was happening: modern culture had entered a form of exile.

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.

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. Instead of presenting him as a distant historical figure, this work explores what his teachings can contribute to a time when democratic values feel increasingly strained and human rights are under growing pressure.

Die Lehrerin, die Noten nicht zur Ermutigung vergeben kann, die Ärztin, die Bildschirme statt Patienten behandelt, der Schiri, dessen Augenmaß vom VAR verdrängt wird: Unmerklich verändert sich in der Gegenwartsgesellschaft der Charakter unseres Handelns. Insbesondere im Berufsleben, aber zunehmend auch in der Freizeit zeichnen uns Richtlinien und Formulare, Algorithmen und Apps die Wege zur Entscheidungsfindung minutiös vor. An die Stelle situationssensiblen Überlegens und Urteilens tritt die konstellationsbasierte Vollzugslogik der Maschinen, mit denen wir tagein, tagaus hantieren.

Self-Reliance is an essay by Ralph Waldo Emerson, a prominent American philosopher and essayist from the 19th century. Published in 1841, the essay explores the concept of individualism and the importance of trusting one's own instincts and beliefs. Emerson advocates for the rejection of conformity and societal expectations, encouraging readers to rely on their own intuition and inner convictions. The essay is a powerful call to embrace self-reliance as a means of personal growth and fulfillment, promoting the idea that true wisdom arises from individual experience and authenticity.

For as long as she can remember, Kate Manne has wanted to be smaller. She can tell you what she weighed on any significant occasion: her wedding day, the day she became a professor, the day her daughter was born. She's been bullied and belittled for her size, leading to extreme dieting. As a feminist philosopher, she wanted to believe that she was exempt from the cultural gaslighting that compels so many of us to ignore our hunger. But she was not. Blending intimate stories with the analysis that has become her signature, Manne shows why fatphobia has become a vital social justice issue.

The world is encountering multiple crises—climate, droughts, floods, energy, food, and pandemics, to name a few. We have a problem, this is the solution. Capitalism and Crises is about how capitalism can fix them—how it can solve not cause them. The reason why it has caused them is that we have misconceived the nature of our capitalist system. We have failed to understand the key institution at the heart of it—business—and as a result we have allowed it to cause as well as solve problems. This book describes why this has happened and what needs to change to address it.

Forget Every "Black" book you ever read or listened to; this Book is NOT "your black" book! This is the story of a first time author, who calls himself "Uncle Meshorn", as he debunks every label by which "uncle sam" has branded him with, including "uncle tom." If MeShorn is NOT "your black", America, then who is he? As soon as you think you can "box" MeShorn into "one of yours", you will have to embarrassingly pull him out, as you read the next chapter! Yet, this book is not just about who he is, rather who you are.

Distraction isn't a new problem. We're also not the first to complain about how hard it is to concentrate. Early Christian monks beat us to it. They had given up everything to focus on God, yet they still struggled to keep the demons of distraction at bay. But rather than surrender to the meandering of their minds, they developed powerful strategies to improve their attention and engagement. How to Focus is an inviting collection of their strikingly relatable insights and advice—frank, funny, sympathetic, and psychologically sophisticated.

KT Guttenberg nimmt sich die Zeit. Seine Texte auf LinkedIn, jeweils von Hunderttausenden gelesen, entspringen Alltagssituationen und Beobachtungen vom Wegesrand, er entdeckt Details unseres Lebens, die wir gern mal übersehen; er spürt Erlebnissen und Gedanken nach, die ihn inspirieren oder beunruhigen – auch, aber nicht nur, in der Politik. Er verbindet das Kleine mit dem Großen, das Absurde mit der Analyse und spiegelt das widersprüchliche Lebensgefühl unserer Zeit in einem lakonischen, immer wieder auch selbstironischen Stil.
