This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Most human suffering is not caused by strangers, but by those we hold closest. We often fall into the trap of "emotional flooding," where we prioritize others' needs and expect reciprocity, only to be met with indifference or betrayal. The Unspoken Laws...

This classic work on critical thinking uses a novel approach to teach the basics of informal logic. On the assumption that "it takes one to know one," the authors have written the book from the point of view of someone who wishes to deceive, mislead, or manipulate others. Having mastered the art of deception, listeners will then be able to detect the misuse or abuse of logic when they encounter it in others—whether in a heated political debate or while trying to evaluate the claims of a persuasive sales person.

What if the future is not empty? We are taught that causes precede effects, that the past shapes the present, and that the future is nothing more than an open space waiting to be filled. But our deepest experiences tell a different story. We fall in love before there is evidence. We sense what is approaching before it arrives. We feel pulled toward purposes we cannot yet name. Something ahead of us is already at work.

How close are you to the edge? Closer than you think. Every human mind operates on a landscape of valleys and ridges. The valley is your sanity—the deep, stable equilibrium of a mind that can absorb the shocks of life and return to balance. But the valley is not permanent. It can be eroded by chronic stress, sleeplessness, isolation, and trauma, until the ridge between health and illness is so low that a single bad day can send the entire system over the edge.

By the time you read this sentence, it has already become the past. Your brain is lying to you—and that lie keeps you alive. Every perception you experience, every movement you make, every intuition that guides your decisions is not a response to reality but a prediction about it. You are not seeing the present. You are seeing your brain's best guess about what the present should be.

Can faith be defended without surrendering its mystery? This book explores the unresolved tension between logic and belief through the figure of Blaise Pascal—mathematician, physicist, philosopher, and Christian thinker—whose life embodied the collision of intellect and spirit. Refusing both dogmatic rationalism and blind submission, the book follows Pascal’s wager, his scientific rigor, his mystical experience, and his philosophical fragments to map a deeper landscape: one where truth lives not within the boundaries of reason or faith alone, but along the contested edge between them.

Every lie constructs a world. For as long as it is believed, that world is as real as any other, shaping decisions, emotions, and the trajectory of lives. In this deeply personal and intellectually ambitious book, Boris Kriger dismantles our assumptions about deception and rebuilds them from the ground up, revealing lying not as a simple moral failing but as a structural feature of how information moves between minds, whether those minds are human or artificial.

普遍的であるはずの「論理」と「合理性」．それは文化によって大きく異なり「価値観」とつながる．「文化の多様性」という言葉に逃げ込まず，それぞれ4つの原理を代表する日本・アメリカ・フランス・イランの思考表現スタイルから4タイプの論理と合理性を明らかにする．ポスト近代を生き抜く知恵となる比較文化論の集大成．

Many insiders in the tech plex are deeply concerned about AI's trajectory—rightly seeing it as existential risk. Dr. Marc Gafni identifies two forms: the potential death of humanity through extinction events, and the potential death of our humanity. We become irrelevant to governance and economics, unneeded as workers, controlled by systems that shape our desires, stripped of genuine choice—heading toward a totalitarian global digital dictatorship. In this monograph, Dr. Marc Gafni offers a multilayered diagnosis of our AI moment—one that far exceeds technological concerns.

This audiobook proposes a radical yet disciplined thesis: the Gospel is not only interpretable, but formally expressible, and its internal structure requires formalization if it is to remain stable, transmissible, and intelligible across radically different forms of intelligence.

A book about why humans think irrationally — and why logic fails in the real world. We live in an age of information and still make emotional, biased, and mathematically insane decisions. Why? Because the human brain is wired for story over statistics, tribe over truth, and certainty over reality. In When Logic Betrays You, Kevin L. Whitworth blends cognitive psychology, behavioral science, and dark humor to expose how cognitive biases sabotage critical thinking.

I saggi di questo volume, che toccano la politica, la religione, la letteratura, la filosofia, la matematica e la scienza, sono raccolti in sezioni che si aprono con interviste immaginarie a personaggi del passato (Hitler, Gesù, Dante, Aristotele, Archimede, Newton) e si chiudono con interviste reali a quelli del presente (Chomsky, il Dalai Lama, Saramago, Kripke, Nash e Watson). Nel mezzo, il matematico impertinente dispiega l'arsenale della ragione per argomentare che non è affatto vero che non possiamo non dirci cristiani, o che siamo tutti americani.

La tesi di Murgia è che l'odio possa essere una virtù, dipende da come lo pratichiamo. Per esempio, con Odio gli indifferenti Antonio Gramsci ha mostrato che, se riconosciuto e disciplinato, questo sentimento non è per forza distruttivo. Passando dalle maledizioni sarde ai salmi biblici, da Grazia Deledda alle lettere di san Paolo, Murgia smonta i nostri pregiudizi e rivendica il diritto di odiare – specialmente i prevaricatori, i prepotenti, tutti coloro che non credono nella responsabilità collettiva del bene.
