No ordinary study of Hegel, Hegel in a Wired Brain investigates what he might have had to say about the idea of the 'wired brain' – what happens when a direct link between our mental processes and a digital machine emerges. Žižek explores the phenomenon of a wired brain effect, and what might happen when we can share our thoughts directly with others. He hones in on the key question of how it shapes our experience and status as 'free' individuals and asks what it means to be human when a machine can read our minds.

Michael Köhlmeier lädt ein zu einer ganz persönlichen Reise, von Shakespeare über seinen Onkel Gerhard bis zu Coco Chanel. Will man für immer leben, wenn man für immer jung sein will? Ist Langeweile die Vorhut des Bösen? Sind Märchen nur Kindern oder auch Erwachsenen zumutbar? Und wenn es das Gute gibt, kann dann jeder die Welt besser machen? Michael Köhlmeier erkundet die großen und kleinen Fragen des Menschseins. Er zelebriert alle Facetten eines intellektuellen Savoir-vivre und entwirft eine kleine Schule des klugen Sehens.

In the most rigorous articulation of his philosophical system to date, Slavoj Žižek provides nothing short of a new definition of dialectical materialism. In forging this new materialism, Žižek critiques and challenges not only the work of Alain Badiou, Robert Brandom, Joan Copjec, Quentin Meillassoux, and Julia Kristeva (to name but a few), but everything from popular science and quantum mechanics to sexual difference and analytic philosophy.

The concept of disparity has long been a topic of obsession and argument for philosophers but Slavoj Žižek would argue that what disparity and negativity could mean, might mean and should mean for us and our lives has never been more hotly debated. Disparities explores contemporary 'negative' philosophies from Catherine Malabou's plasticity, Julia Kristeva's abjection and Robert Pippin's self-consciousness to the God of negative theology, new realisms and post-humanism and draws a radical line under them.

不自由で、貧しく、生きづらい――この国の不出来なシステムを悪用するか、逃げ出すか、それとも……ウチダ流「日本人論」最新刊！！失われた３０年で「不自由な国」になってしまった日本。

「バーチャル世界」で格差を埋める人々が急増「パラサイト・シングル」「希望格差」「婚活」などの言葉を世に出した、稀代の社会学者による現代日本社会の実像私の分析は楽観的なものではない。

In this rigorous and unsettling study, Boris Kriger reconstructs Georges Bataille’s vision of the sacred as a trembling border between reason and its own undoing. Moving beyond biography and commentary, the book situates Bataille’s thought within the crises of twentieth-century modernity—the collapse of transcendence, the exhaustion of eroticism, and the metamorphosis of sacrifice into aesthetics.

This book is not here to comfort you. It does not promise hope, progress, or some tender reassurance about the nobility of the human project. It will not tell you that everything happens for a reason, or that there is meaning to be found in our collective struggle. Instead, it stands firmly within the logic of Jean Baudrillard’s simulacra—a philosophy that does not seek to reveal a hidden truth, but to diagnose the condition of our reality. We no longer live in the world; we live within our own perception of it.

Every act of knowing carries within it a quiet act of forgetting. Knowledge as Oblivion reveals the hidden symmetry between learning and loss, understanding and erasure, showing that progress in thought is not an accumulation but a perpetual renewal through disappearance. In this bold and luminous work, Boris Kriger dismantles the myth of intellectual continuity and invites the listener to reconsider what it means to “know.”

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.

The Emergence of Awe: Reimagining Human Progress for the 21st Century explores how humanity stands at a crossroads, where exponential technological advancement meets stagnant political and social systems. Drawing from science, philosophy and history, Hayk Sarkissian offers a bold new way of thinking – challenging us to align human values with objective reality. He questions the deep-rooted assumptions and foundations of modern society to propose a philosophical shift to empower human flourishing in the 21st century.

En este libro se realiza, mediante la filosofia de la historia, la tan necesaria “sospecha de la sospecha”, y que el gran error posmoderno sea finalmente expuesto. Error, la cual va a mas alla de la simple contradiccion logica formal. Y cuya revelación; al mismo tiempo le da su nascimiento a la nueva filosofía metamoderna. Esta nueva filosofía no solo busca destruir, sino también construir verdades. Verdades más allá de la superficialidad de la izquierda y derecha hegelianas.

The Modern Know-it-all: A Handbook To Achieving An Infallible Worldview is a profound philosophical guide that completely flips the script on our world's common definition of a know-it-all. This enlightening literary journey dismantles the negative stereotype of the conventional "know-it-all" by introducing a transformative new archetype—the Modern Know-it-all—who attains wisdom through rigorous self-deconstruction, critical thinking, and a hybrid philosophical approach to life.

What if the greatest danger to humanity is not ignorance, but the illusions of knowledge? In this provocative collection of essays, Boris Kriger unravels the deceits of human thought—its rationalizations, its comforting lies, its masks of philosophy, religion, and economics. From the absurdities of bohemia to the corruption of charity, from the false promises of systems to the fragile brilliance of uncalculated kindness, Tricks of the Mind exposes how easily we mistake coherence for truth, greed for prudence, ritual for spirit.

Story is the source code of culture and consciousness and of all Reality-all the way up and down the evolutionary chain. Story is the attempt to gather information about the nature of Reality and translate it into narrative frameworks bounded by Value. Stories that organize culture are Stories of Value backed by the Universe. Postmodernity argues that Reality is just a story, and that all stories are created equal (equally meaningless of inherent value) because value itself is not real. And therefore, all stories of value are but social constructs, fictions, figments of our imagination.

Why do we create? Why does humanity, confronted with chaos inside and out, insist on painting, writing, inventing, building, dreaming? And could creativity be the one force that makes existence not only bearable—but meaningful? This book is a journey into the heart of chaos and the human spirit’s response to it. It explores creativity not as luxury or pastime, but as our deepest survival tool, our rebellion against absurdity, and our bridge between order and disorder.

The irony is what happens that is actually, incredibly understood and the idea is how you come to reach its purpose. That things that occur change your mind, interpret your comprehension and connects everything together in one moment. That we can't always understand and know why but understand its purpose. That serendipity is one that has a unique ratification but the relevance proves itself.
