Why are some people who suffer terribly not unhappy — while others, whose lives look perfectly comfortable, are miserable? In this groundbreaking book, Boris Kriger reveals a single mechanism that explains most human unhappiness: a mental act he calls negative self-determination — the moment when your mind takes a bounded experience of pain and converts it into an unbounded verdict about who you are. "This hurts" becomes "I am broken." "I failed" becomes "I am a failure." "She left" becomes "I am unlovable.

The ‘WHY’ handbook presents and evidences that human decisions and actions are most strongly determined by our underlying basic inborn human nature and survival instincts. The uniqueness of ‘WHY’ is in bringing to light certain truths that are often covered-up, hidden and de-emphasized because they oppose norms, rules and laws of society which leads to our unwillingness to concede, admit or accept these ‘inappropriate’ or questionable behaviors [the ‘WHY’ thesis].

Every parent, teacher, manager, and policymaker faces the same hidden trap: the instinct to protect can quietly destroy the very strength it hopes to build. In this wide-ranging and deeply personal book, Boris Kriger reveals a universal pattern that connects the anxious parent hovering over a child’s homework to the safety engineer constraining an autonomous vehicle, the micromanager stifling a team’s creativity, and even the laws of physics that govern our universe.

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.

1968 erschuf der amerikanische Verhaltensforscher John B. Calhoun ein Paradies. Kein Krieg. Kein Hunger. Keine Krankheit. Keine Feinde. Stattdessen: Nahrung im Überfluss. Sicherheit. Wärme. Schutz. Ordnung. Er nannte es Universum 25. Es war ein perfekter Ort. Zumindest auf dem Papier. Die Mäuse bekamen alles, was sie brauchten. Und noch mehr. Die Population wuchs. Das Leben schien ideal. Und dann begann der Zerfall. Nicht weil etwas fehlte. Sondern weil alles da war. Mütter kümmerten sich nicht mehr um ihre Jungen. Männchen zogen sich zurück und lebten isoliert.

In 1968, a schoolteacher in Iowa divided her classroom by eye colour. Within minutes, ordinary children became tyrants. Within hours, their victims had forgotten how to read. The experiment lasted two days. The lesson it taught has haunted psychology ever since.

“Useful Not True” is about reframing. Success in anything starts with your perspective which affects your strategy — your actions. Your first thought (“this is a disaster”) feels true, but it’s not the only perspective. Your first thought is an obstacle you need to get past by realizing no thoughts are necessarily true. After your initial impulse, consider other perspectives, then choose the thought that’s more useful to you — the one that makes you take effective actions. People share perspectives, not facts. They tell you how they see things.

Revelation of God — Volume III concludes a three-volume philosophical exploration of consciousness, civilization, and responsibility. This final volume focuses on destiny—not as fate, but as the long-term outcome of choices made within irreversible systems. As technology, artificial intelligence, and global integration accelerate, individual decisions increasingly participate in collective structures. Consequences scale faster, uncertainty deepens, and responsibility can no longer be delayed or externalized.

Revelation of God — Volume II continues a rational philosophical inquiry into time, evolution, civilization, and technology. Rather than treating artificial intelligence and modern civilization as disruptions of nature, this volume examines them as lawful extensions of life itself. This book explores why time exists as an organizing dimension of human perception, how change operates as a lawful process, and why evolution is neither purely random nor strictly predetermined.
