Manipulators and pathological liars are more common than you think. They live amongst us, these masters of deceit with no regard for other people. With every flattering compliment they leave you, there is an ulterior motive, and once they discover what's most important to you, they will exploit you to no end. They'll take advantage of you, and, if you allow them to get to close or intimate with you, they might just take you for every cent you have.

In a book distinguished by clarity and passion, Robert Zaretsky considers why Albert Camus mattered in his own lifetime and continues to matter today, focusing on key moments that shaped Camus' development as a writer, a public intellectual, and a man.

The Gay Science (The Joyful Wisdom) is one of Nietzsche's greatest books. His wonderfully fertile mind roams over mankind, his thoughts, his emotions, his behaviour and his weaknesses with remarkable clarity, with insight - but also with humour!In this work are 383 separate paragraphs, some short, some long, but all singular observations - the epitome of his famous aphoristic style. 'Morality is the herd instinct in the individual.'

If you've wanted to read Ralph Waldo Emerson but find his 19th-century prose too daunting, help is here.... In Everyday Emerson, best-selling author Sam Torode (The Dirty Parts of the Bible: A Novel) rephrases the works of Ralph Waldo Emerson in contemporary language. The goal is to make Emerson's wisdom applicable to our daily lives, proving that transcendentalism isn't a relic of the past - it's a way of thinking and seeing the world that's still valid and vital.

As physicists work toward completing a theory of the universe and biologists unravel the molecular complexity of life, a glaring incompleteness in this scientific vision becomes apparent. The "theory of everything" that appears to be emerging includes everything but us: the feelings, meanings, consciousness, and purposes that make us (and many of our animal cousins) what we are.

Au début du XXIe siècle, Philippe Sollers repense Frédéric Nietzsche comme l'héritier et le continuateur des Lumières, qui apparaît ainsi comme le plus français des écrivains allemands. De Nietzsche à Sollers, à l'évidence, il n'y a qu'un pas vers la reconnaissance du XVIIIe siècle comme miracle français.

Lorsqu'il publie "Le Contrat naturel" (Éditions François Bourin, 1990), Michel Serres fait plus qu'exprimer un état de sa recherche philosophique. En intellectuel, il s'engage au cœur même d'une question fondamentale pour l'avenir de l'humanité : le souci écologique. Quelles sont les limites de la planète terre ? Quels sont les devoirs des civilisations modernes envers elle ? Y a-t-il une fin de la nature prévisible ou prévue ?

To some, Soren Kierkegaard is primarily a philosopher, to others a Christian thinker or theologian. He was also a perceptive psychologist and incisive cultural critic. But above all, Kierkegaard was a writer. Clare Carlisle’s book tackles eight key questions surrounding Kierkegaard’s multi-faceted thinking, exploring above all his view of the world and how we live in it.

Pragmatism: A New Name for Some Old Ways of Thinking by William James is a unique work in American philosophy. This collection of lectures James himself delivered at the dawn of the twentieth century has been a landmark in the development of the philosophical movement of pragmatism.

A comprehensive guide to setting goals.

L'œuvre de Hegel est le sommet de la philosophie idéaliste allemande. Figure incontournable de l'Aufklärung (les Lumières), son influence a été décisive sur l'ensemble de la philosophie contemporaine. Hegel construit un système grandiose qui part de deux questions fondamentales : "Si Dieu existe, d'où vient le mal", et "Si la vérité est une, pourquoi les philosophes se contredisent-ils ?".

We have selected for you 100 best quotes by Hegel. Georg Hegel was a German philosopher and an important figure of German idealism. He achieved wide renown in his day and - while primarily influential within the continental tradition of philosophy - has become increasingly influential in the analytic tradition as well. Although Hegel remains a divisive figure, his canonical stature within Western philosophy is universally recognized.

Nietzsche is a major figure in Western philosophy. His work is radical, sometimes violent, often ironic; it fascinates anyone bold enough to delve into it, exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history, and covers a wide range of subjects. Nietzsche's writings border on the poetic; his aphorisms are particularly well-known for conveying all the radicalism of his thinking in a intense but light, sometimes amusing manner.

On a clear May afternoon at the end of his junior year at Harvard, Howard Axelrod played a pick-up game of basketball. In a skirmish for a loose ball, a boy's finger hooked behind Axelrod's eyeball and left him permanently blinded in his right eye. A week later, he returned to the same dorm room, but to a different world. A world where nothing looked solid, where the distance between how people saw him and how he saw had widened into a gulf.

Since the publication of The Prince five centuries ago, Machiavelli has been associated with political amorality. But that characterization is unfair. In Be Like the Fox, Erica Benner sets the record straight: far from the ruthless "Machiavellian" henchman that people think he was, Machiavelli emerges here as a profound ethical thinker who fought to uphold high moral standards and restore the democratic freedoms of his beloved Florence.

What is love? Aside from being the title of many a popular love song, this is one of life's perennial questions. In What Love Is, philosopher Carrie Jenkins offers a bold new theory on the nature of romantic love that reconciles its humanistic and scientific components.

Les mutations profondes des conditions de l'espèce humaine ne font pas la une. Pourtant les changements qu'elles entraînent sont fondamentaux. La mutation combinée de l'effectif démographique et de la conscience de la finitude de la planète terre se frotte ainsi à celle des pouvoirs des hommes "qui sont devenus plus grands que ce que la terre peut supporter" et à qui doit s'imposer une mutation éthique.

What is it that makes humans human? As science and technology challenge the boundaries between life and nonlife, between organic and inorganic, this ancient question is more timely than ever. Acclaimed object-oriented philosopher Timothy Morton invites us to consider this philosophical issue as eminently political. In our relationship with nonhumans, we decide the fate of our humanity. Becoming human, claims Morton, actually means creating a network of kindness and solidarity with nonhuman beings, in the name of a broader understanding of reality.

Weaving elements of memoir, philosophical reflection, sports writing, and humour, Fail Better is an intellectual love letter to baseball by one of North America's most engaging philosophers. Kingwell illustrates complex concepts like theoretically infinite game-space, "time out of time", and the rules of civility with accessible examples drawn from the game, its history, and his own halting efforts to hit 'em where they ain't.

Lire Nietzsche, c'est apprendre à philosopher à coups de marteau. Dans les bibliothèques universitaires, ce sont les livres de Nietzsche qui sont les plus souvent volés. Pas étonnant : la rencontre avec Nietzsche fascine et apprend à penser, voire à se rebeller. Sa pensée est radicale, parfois violente, souvent ironique ; ses écrits sont à la frontière de la philosophie et de la poésie. Ses aphorismes en particulier véhiculent toute la force de sa pensée de façon directe, efficace, et souvent pleine d'humour.
