Durante siglos hemos creído saber distinguir lo vivo de lo inerte. Un animal está vivo, una máquina no. Pero esa frontera empieza a desdibujarse. La inteligencia artificial, la biología sintética, la exploración del universo y los avances científicos nos están empujando hacia un territorio desconocido: uno en el que las máquinas aprenden, los sistemas evolucionan y la vida podría no ser exclusiva de lo biológico.

Nominiert für den Deutschen Sachbuchpreis 2026 Für die Philosophie gehört die Sprache zu den wichtigsten Eigenschaften des Menschen: Sie ermöglicht es, eine ganze Welt zu erschließen, Gedanken zu artikulieren, sich über Wertvorstellungen zu verständigen – und ist entscheidend für die Freiheit und Souveränität, mit denen Menschen ihr Leben führen. Was aber geschieht, wenn wir uns von einer Sprachmaschine die Welt erklären, Werte vermitteln und das Denken abnehmen lassen? Gewöhnen uns ChatGPT und Co. das Lesen, Schreiben und Denken ab? Überreden sie uns zu Ansichten, die wir gar nicht haben?

You are inside the universe you are trying to understand. This single fact — so obvious it barely seems worth stating — has consequences that reach from quantum physics to the structure of your own mind. In this audiobook, Boris Kriger shows that being inside changes everything. Drawing on a monograph that proves its claims with mathematical rigour, but written entirely in words and metaphors for the non-specialist listener, The Right to Be Wrong establishes three results that overturn common assumptions about knowledge, science, and consciousness.

Medicine and Religion is the first book to comprehensively examine the relationship between medicine and religion in the Western tradition from ancient times to the modern era. Beginning with the earliest attempts to heal the body and account for the meaning of illness in the ancient Near East, historian Gary B. Ferngren describes how the polytheistic religions of ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome and the monotheistic faiths of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have complemented medicine in the ancient, medieval, and modern periods.

As the climate emergency worsens and biodiversity shrinks, we somehow get used to it. We struggle to remember what summers were like before the unrelenting heat, in those years before wildfires became an annual routine. We adapt, we normalize. Scientists call this "shifting baseline syndrome,"...

Book twelve of fifteen for the entire set of SIC ITUR AD ASTRA (This is the Way to the Stars). Entitled V-50X: Surface the Giant!, this book is the transcript of the three-session extension of course V-50 delivered by Professor Galambos in 1976 upon realizing, “The extension to the course is necessitated by it becoming increasingly apparent that there was a problem in the course [V-50], in that there was not an adequate discussion of the second postulate of volitional science.”

Même si on parle aujourd'hui du déclin de la psychanalyse, la figure de Freud suscite les débats les plus passionnés, même aujourd'hui. Le but de cet ouvrage est de vulgariser la pensée de Freud à travers les éléments biographiques qui ont jalonné son existence.
