"Este es el manual de la industria de las relaciones públicas. Bernays es una especie de gurú. Su gran golpe, el que le catapultó a la fama en la década de 1920, fue conseguir que las mujeres empezaran a fumar. En esa época las mujeres no fumaban y él lanzó campañas masivas para Chesterfield. Conocemos las técnicas: modelos y estrellas de cine con cigarrillos en la boca y demás. Consiguió un enorme éxito y se convirtió en una figura destacada y su libro en el auténtico manual"

In the past, one of the most cherished American values was the truth. When people dealt with dilemmas, issues, opinions, and decisions, their first question was “What is the truth in this situation?” Now people are concerned only with what they think, feel, and want. We have lost touch with the importance of truth in our lives. This reality has resulted in a society in abject turmoil and confusion.

The five words come together as two phrases: “I believe” and “In my opinion”. What follows is an archipelago of ideas, pushed up out of the sea of knowledge, by musings born of 75 years of living. I anticipate that many, like mariners of old, will pass by at a distance, cautious of hidden perils. But I hope that some may, like Charles Darwin or Galileo Galilea, pause and ponder.

Die Welt, in der wir leben, ist kompliziert und vielen Menschen fremd geworden. Immer mehr Gruppen, von denen wir früher wenig bis nichts hörten, drängen in die Öffentlichkeit, um für ihre Anliegen zu werben oder gar der Gesellschaft vorzuschreiben, was sie zu tun hat. Wie kann der Erfolg dieser sogenannten Identitätspolitik erklärt werden? Und wie sollte die Kirche darauf reagieren? Der Historiker Carl R. Trueman zeigt in diesem Buch auf verständliche Weise, welche Einflüsse unsere Kultur in die Richtung eines expressiven Individualismus bewegt haben.

Following a remarkable epoch of greater dispersion of wealth and opportunity, we are inexorably returning towards a more feudal era marked by greater concentration of wealth and property, reduced upward mobility, demographic stagnation, and increased dogmatism. If the last 70 years saw a massive expansion of the middle class, not only in America but in much of the developed world, today that class is declining and a new, more hierarchical society is emerging. The new class structure resembles that of Medieval times.

In "Zur Psychologie des Geldes" untersucht Georg Simmel die vielschichtige Rolle des Geldes im sozialen und individuellen Leben. Das Werk gehört zu den einflussreichsten Schriften der frühen Soziologie und entfaltet auf brillante Weise, wie Geld soziale Beziehungen, Werte und Identität prägt. Mit philosophischer Tiefe und soziologischer Schärfe analysiert Simmel, wie Geld als abstraktes Tauschmittel Denk- und Handlungsmuster formt, Freiheit und Abhängigkeit zugleich schafft und den modernen Menschen in seiner Existenz beeinflusst.
