核戦争、環境破壊、パンデミック、超AI……人類滅亡の可能性はきわめて高い。しかしそれを切り抜けたならば、人類は宇宙を征服するだろう、と言われる。そのとき「人類」は果たして「ヒト」だろうか？　そして存続を目指すべき「人類」の範疇とは？

Science is the most powerful method of understanding the world that human beings have ever devised. It splits atoms, sequences genomes, and photographs black holes. But it is also performed by brains—brains that think in metaphors, organize experience into stories, and coordinate collective action through ritual. What happens when we take that fact seriously? In Science and Taboo, Boris Kriger draws on the predictive processing revolution in cognitive science to reveal the hidden architecture of scientific thought.

Der Sozialpsychologe Jonathan Haidt zeigt: Die Antwort liegt in unserer Moral – die weit weniger auf Rationalität und Logik gründet als auf Intuition und Sozialtrieb. Moral bringt uns dazu, individuelle Interessen zu überwinden und mit anderen zu kooperieren; zugleich aber macht sie uns blind für die Perspektiven anderer Gruppen. So haben sich im Lauf der Evolution und Geschichte zwischen Gemeinschaften und Kulturen sehr unterschiedliche moralische Intuitionen herausgebildet.

What if psychology’s greatest problem is not lack of data—but lack of structure? Psychology: A Constraint-First Ontology offers a radical yet accessible rethinking of the human mind. Drawing on systems theory, neuroscience, trauma research, and philosophy of science, this book proposes a unifying framework in which mental life is understood as the dynamic stabilization of constraints. Rather than treating disorders as isolated pathologies or the mind as a hidden substance, this work reframes identity, emotion, trauma, and healing as structural processes of coherence, collapse, and repair.

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.

Drawing on the wisdom of 2,500 years of contemplative non-religious writing on all that it means to be human - from the origins of the universe to small matters of courtesy and kindness in everyday life - A. C. Grayling, Britain's most popular philosopher, has created a secular bible. This book is designed as a narrative and also to be dipped into for inspiration, encouragement and consolation, The Good Book offers a thoughtful, non-religious alternative to the many people who do not follow one of the world's great religions.

What if the conflicts tearing apart your relationships, your workplace, your community—are not your fault? For decades, we have treated aggression as a personal failing. We blame “difficult people,” prescribe anger management, and search for the villain in every dispute. But groundbreaking research reveals a startling truth: conflict escalation is often a property of networks, not individuals.

Quem somos? De onde viemos? Para onde vamos? Perguntas manjadas, é verdade. Mas quem nunca pensou nisso pelo menos uma vez na vida? O questionamento sobre nossa existência, origem e destino tem sido tema de profunda reflexão dos maiores pensadores da humanidade ao longo de três mil anos e, mais recentemente, dos cientistas. As perguntas são as mesmas desde que o homem começou a pensar. As respostas não. Muito pelo contrário.

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.

Chacun le sait, nous vivons l'irruption d'un brouillage généralisé entre vrai et faux ; deepfakes indiscernables, informations manipulées, récits complotistes, réalités virtuelles proliférantes, conversations numériques avec des morts. Mais cette « grande pagaille » ne provient pas seulement des machines. Elle révèle une mutation profonde de l'humanité elle-même. Et si, en fin de compte, il fallait considérer le tri entre vrai et faux comme une affaire avant tout morale ? Une enquête philosophique claire et nécessaire sur l'étrange époque où nous basculons.

We live in a time where lies feel normal, and truth feels risky. People repeat ideas they never questioned, and institutions bend reality to suit their needs. Society rewards silence, and punishes anyone who refuses to go along. In a world like this truth is no longer a simple habit. It is something you must guard, and something you must practice. It has become an art.
