The year is 1919. The horror of the First World War is fresh for the protagonists of Time of the Magicians, each of whom finds himself at a crucial juncture. Benjamin is trying to flee his overbearing father and floundering in his academic career, living hand to mouth as a critic. Wittgenstein, by contrast, has dramatically decided to divest himself of the monumental fortune he stands to inherit, in search of spiritual clarity.

Are you tired of pretending to understand philosophers who write like they're being paid per syllable of confusion? This book is your revenge. In 50 Philosophers You’ll Regret Reading, author Sophia Blackwell takes a sledgehammer to the ivory tower with biting wit, dark humor, and no patience for footnote fetishism. From the cosmic gibberish of Parmenides to Derrida’s textual striptease, this is the ultimate roast of Western philosophy’s most unreadable minds. Kant’s 800-page snoozefest? Ripped to shreds. Nietzsche’s gym-bro metaphysics? Dismantled with flair. Husserl’s bracketed nightmare?

Preuves à l'appui, Michel Onfray revient aux sources intellectuelles de l'antisémitisme de la gauche radicale. Au lendemain de la tragédie du 7 octobre, Michel Onfray s'est demandé pourquoi des millions de citoyens français avaient salué un grand jour pour le peuple palestinien. Son livre gravite autour de la question suivante : quel rôle ont joué les philosophes du XXe siècle dans la construction de cette effrayante passion triste qu'est le consentement au sadisme des bourreaux contre des victimes innocentes.

In "Atlas Struggled," Sophia Blackwell delivers a hilarious and scathing takedown of Ayn Rand, the failed screenwriter who somehow convinced generations of insecure men that being selfish isn't just acceptable—it's the highest moral virtue. With her signature blend of merciless mockery and genuine insight, Blackwell dissects Rand's life and philosophy, revealing how a Russian immigrant with a persecution complex created a "philosophical" system that's really just elaborate justification for being terrible to other people.

Peut-on encore parler de philosophie après Hiroshima ? Cette question résume à elle seule le désarroi et l'angoisse des philosophes de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle après les atrocités des guerres mondiales. Mais ce désarroi est en germe dès le XIXe siècle, suscité notamment par les « philosophes du soupçon ». Cet ouvrage interroge la spécificité de la philosophie contemporaine et les fondements de ce désenchantement.

Was ist Raum? Was ist Zeit? Was die Bedingungen der Möglichkeit von Erfahrung und Wissenschaft? Diese Fragen beschäftigen Philosophen seit jeher. Im ersten Teil seiner bahnbrechenden Kritik der reinen Vernunft, der von ihm sogenannten "Transzendentalen Ästhetik", gibt Immanuel Kant auf diese zwei Fragen Antworten, die die Diskussion darüber auf ein bis dahin noch nicht erreichtes Niveau hoben und die Philosophie im engeren Sinne wie auch den sich bereits zu seiner Zeit mehr und mehr verzweigenden modernen Wissenschaften ein neues erkenntnistheoretisches Fundament gaben.

We need something in real-time, something that reflects our civilization and culture. That something is politics, Thus, we must start by adding the dimension of science to the study of politics. This is why this audiobook, The Biology of Politics, was written.

La desacralizzazione e la scristianizzazione accompagnano il destino dell'uomo occidentale. La civiltà del capitalismo assoluto, che basa il suo dominio sul nichilismo relativista e sulla volontà di potenza tecnoscientifica, non solo non ha più bisogno di affidarsi, come un tempo, alla religione quale strumento di potere: deve necessariamente promuoverne l'estinzione.

Finally, a philosophy book that doesn't take itself as seriously as the theorists it eviscerates! Nothing Means Anything mercilessly skewers postmodernism's most pretentious thinkers with savage wit and zero academic mercy.

What the Hell tears into Ludwig Wittgenstein—history's most insufferable genius—with savage wit and zero academic pretension.

Discover how a man who couldn't maintain a single healthy relationship somehow revolutionized our understanding of language, meaning, and communication.

In this mercilessly funny takedown, Jean-Jacques Rousseau—history's most insufferable philosopher—gets the roasting he so richly deserves. Noble Savage, Deadbeat Dad exposes the spectacular hypocrisy of a man who abandoned five children at orphanages while writing the definitive guide to education, preached natural virtue while exposing himself to strangers, and railed against wealth while living off rich patrons.

The world you knew is disappearing. Truth is being rewritten, reality is being engineered, and those who control the machines control the future. We are living in an age where artificial intelligence is replacing human thought, digital systems dictate the boundaries of speech and belief, and global institutions are collapsing under the weight of their own deception. Every pillar of civilization—faith, family, freedom—is under siege by forces determined to remake humanity in their own image.

מה קורה כאשר פו הדוב פוגש את וודי אלן? מה עשתה אליס על הספה של פרויד? איך הצליח עמנואל קאנט לפגוש את מרילין מונרו? האם אנו מבזבזים זמן או שהזמן מבזבז אותנו? מהי משנתו הפילוסופית של ארנולד שוורצנגר? מהו הקשר בין "מטריקס" ל"ארץ הפלאות"? איך חוגגים מסיבת לא יומהולדת? לכמה אדמה זקוק הרוזן טולסטוי? איך הפך סנדלר חולמני למלך צרפת? מדוע נזקק האסטרונום הטורקי לחליפת ארמאני? האם הנסיך הקטן מצא תשובה לשאלתו של ביאליק? האם יש משמעות לשאלות על משמעות? מהם הדברים החשובים באמת?

"Dies Buch gehört den Wenigsten. Vielleicht lebt selbst noch keiner von ihnen. Erst das Übermorgen gehört mir." Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900) rechnete in dieser Schrift mit dem Christentum ab - wie üblich in einem Tonfall, der dem "Philosophieren mit dem Hammer" gleichkam. Ein zentrales Werk in Nietzsches Schaffen!
