Today, human exceptionalism is the norm. Despite occasional nods to animal welfare, we prioritize humanity, often neglecting the welfare of a vast number of beings. As a result, we use hundreds of billions of vertebrates and trillions of invertebrates every year for a variety of purposes. We also plan to use animals, AI systems, and other nonhumans at even higher levels in the future. Yet as the dominant species, humanity has a responsibility to ask: Which nonhumans matter, how much do they matter, and what do we owe them in a world reshaped by human activity and technology?

A Confession, or My Confession, is a short work on the subject of melancholia, philosophy and religion by the acclaimed Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy. It was written in 1879 to 1880, when Tolstoy was in his early fifties. The book is a brief autobiographical story of the author's struggle with a mid-life existential crisis. It describes his search for the answer to the ultimate philosophical question: "If God does not exist, since death is inevitable, what is the meaning of life?." Without the answer to this, for him, life had become "impossible".

Where do you get your values and sensibilities from? If you grew up in a Western democracy, the answer is probably liberalism. Conservatives are right about one thing: liberalism is the ideology of our times, as omnipresent as religion once was. Yet, as Alexandre Lefebvre argues in Liberalism as a Way of Life, many of us are liberal without fully realizing it—or grasping what it means.

What is love? In poetry, songs, fiction, movies, psychology, and philosophy, love has been described, admired, lamented, and dissected in endless ways. Is love based on physical attraction? Does it bring out our better selves? How does it relate to sex? Is love divine? Plato's Symposium is one of the oldest, most influential, and most profound explorations of such questions—it is even the source of the idea of "Platonic love."

Texte philosophique de la maturité, il explore ce qu’est la pensée de l’humanité: ce mouvement commun par lequel les hommes cherchent le vrai et le bien, au-delà des intérêts et des frontières. Avec une prose limpide et intransigeante, l’auteur confronte les illusions du moment aux exigences de la conscience, examine nos idées de progrès et d’ordre social, et s’interroge sur ce qui fait la valeur d’une vie. Sobre et ardent, ce court essai invite à écouter une voix universelle et intérieure, et à mesurer ses convictions à l’aune d’une morale vivante.

In Philosophie der Freiheit – Grundzüge einer modernen Weltanschauung (1894) entfaltet Rudolf Steiner seine erkenntnistheoretischen und ethischen Überlegungen zu Individualität, Moral und geistiger Freiheit. Das Werk bildet das philosophische Fundament der Anthroposophie und lädt zu bewusstem, selbstbestimmtem Denken ein. Steiner zeigt, dass wahre Freiheit aus innerer Einsicht und geistiger Aktivität erwächst – nicht als bloße Willkür, sondern als individuelles, verantwortungsvolles Handeln.

This poignant philosophy about the human capacity for love in the face of tragedy from New York Times bestselling author Erich Fromm is as relevant today as it was when it was first broadcast. Transcribed from a series of recorded conversations streamed over German public radio in 1970, the profound ideas and thoughts collected in this volume represent a lifetime of the renowned psychoanalyst and social philosopher's explorations into human emotion and behavior throughout the twentieth century.

The Duty of Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau, narrated by Marcus Locke, is a thought-provoking essay that explores the individual's moral responsibility to resist unjust government actions. Written in 1849, Thoreau's work has become a cornerstone of political philosophy, advocating for peaceful protest and nonviolent resistance to oppressive authority. Thoreau emphasizes the importance of following one's conscience over conforming to laws that violate fundamental human rights.

As it was in Anna Karenina, Madame Bovary, and Othello, so it is in life. Most forms of private vice and public evil are kindled and sustained by lies. Acts of adultery and other personal betrayals, financial fraud, government corruption - even murder and genocide - generally require an additional moral defect: a willingness to lie. In Lying, bestselling author and neuroscientist Sam Harris argues that we can radically simplify our lives and improve society by merely telling the truth in situations where others often lie.

In den Aphorismen unter dem Titel "Zur Geschichte der moralischen Empfindungen" untersucht Friedrich Nietzsche die Ursprünge und Wandlungen moralischer Begriffe. Die Auswahl stammt aus seinem Werk "Menschliches, Allzumenschliches" und wurde für dieses Hörbuch von Sven Görtz zusammengestellt und interpretiert. Nietzsche analysiert mit scharfer Sprache, wie Begriffe wie Schuld, Reue, Mitleid, Pflicht oder Tugend historisch entstanden sind – und wie sie in Wahrheit Ausdruck von Trieben, Machtverhältnissen und kulturellen Entwicklungen sind.

يعد مبحث الأخلاق أحد المباحث الفلسفية الأساسية، فالحياة الأخلاقية تستمد مرجعيتها من الأسس الفلسفية التي تستند إليها وتبررها وتفسرها، وفي هذا الكتاب اختار أحمد أمين أن يركز على دراسة هذا المبحث، ولكن بشكل تربوي، بحيث يبين لنا أهميته العملية قبل الفلسفية، وبذلك فهو لا ينظر إلى الأخلاق كمقولة نظرية تتداولها ألسنة الفلاسفة وتحلق بها في برج عاجي بحيث تظل حبيسة جدران الكتب، وإنما ينظر إليها كممارسة اجتماعية حية تتحقق في واقعنا المعيش، ونتلمس أثرها بشكل مباشر في كافة معاملاتنا الحياتية؛ لذلك فهو يركز بشكل أساسي على مفاهيم أخلاقية فاعلة مثل: الضمير، والعدل، والصدق، والطاعة، والتعاون

Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (1785) is the first of Immanuel Kant's mature works on moral philosophy and remains one of the most important in the field. Kant examines the core concepts and principles of moral theory, showing that they are normative for rational agents. He aspires to lay bare the fundamental principle of morality and prove that it applies to us. Kant offers the argument that the rightness of an action is determined by the character of the principle that a person chooses to act upon.
