Um dos livros mais polêmicos e impactantes de Nietzsche, O Anticristo traz uma crítica avassaladora aos princípios da fé cristã, considerada por ele como decadente e negadora da vida. Filósofo ateu, Nietzsche vinha elaborando pareceres controversos ao cristianismo ao longo de toda a sua vida filosófica. Nesta obra, ele os apresentou de uma forma incomum e nitidamente feroz, antes de se entregar à total loucura, poucos anos depois.

What does it mean to say that we live in a secular age? Almost everyone would agree that we - in the West, at least - largely do. And clearly the place of religion in our societies has changed profoundly in the last few centuries. In what will be a defining book for our time, Charles Taylor takes up the question of what these changes mean - of what, precisely, happens when a society in which it is virtually impossible not to believe in God becomes one in which faith, even for the staunchest believer, is only one human possibility among others.

Heute gilt Leibniz als das letzte Universalgenie und als Wegbereiter der Moderne. Als Mensch und als Philosoph war er zutiefst optimistisch, aufgeben war für ihn nie eine Option. Hier lernen wir Leibniz' ganze Welt kennen. An sieben Tagen seines Lebens zwischen 1675 und 1716 sehen wir ihm über die Schulter: In Paris treffen wir ihn im Bett an, wo er morgens seine besten Gedanken entwickelt. In Hannover plaudert er am Hof mit der Kurfürstin, im Harz tüftelt er über Windmühlen. Sein größter Wurf ist die Skizze einer Maschine, die mit den Zahlen 0 und 1 rechnet – Grundlage des Digitalcodes und damit des Computers.

Atheism is often considered to be a negative, dark, and pessimistic belief which is characterized by a rejection of values and purpose and a fierce opposition to religion.

It also confronts the failure of officially atheist states in the 20th century. The book presents an intellectual case for atheism that rests as much upon positive arguments for its truth as on negative arguments against religion.

Martin Buber’s I and Thou has long been acclaimed as a classic. Many prominent writers have acknowledged its influence on their work; students of intellectual history consider it a landmark; and the generation born after World War II considers Buber one of its prophets. Buber’s main proposition is that we may address existence in two ways: (1) that of the “I” toward an “It,” toward an object that is separate in itself, which we either use or experience; (2) that of the “I” toward “Thou,” in which we move into existence in a relationship without bounds.

What if God isn’t a supernatural force in the sky, but the living consciousness of the Earth itself? In 108: The Story of Discovering Earth's Consciousness, atheist Eric Leo takes listeners on an extraordinary journey that blends radical science, personal revelation, and a bold new vision of divinity.

Patience is often regarded with suspicion in fast-paced, modern societies and by those who see the command to "be patient" as a tool of oppressors. For patience to be recognizable as a virtue, it must be distinguished from mere waiting and needless suffering. In The Virtue of Patience, scholars working in philosophy, psychology, and religious studies consider what makes patience a virtue, how to model and study patience, and how we can think about the value of patience across the boundaries of disciplines, cultures, and religions.

The Varieties of Religious Experience is considered to be the classic work in the field. To quote Wikipedia, "James was most interested in understanding personal religious experience. The importance of James to the psychology of religion - and to psychology more generally - is difficult to overstate. He discussed many essential issues that remain of vital concern today. What makes James writing so special is that he could take a very complex subject and, without watering it down, make it understandable to 'the rest of us.'"
