In The War on the West, international best-selling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is a history of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it? It’s become, he explains, perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What’s more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech.

"The Prince" is a 16th-century political treatise by the Italian diplomat and political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. From correspondence a version appears to have been distributed in 1513, using a Latin title, De Principatibus (Of Principalities). However, the printed version was not published until 1532, five years after Machiavelli's death. This was done with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII, but "long before then, in fact since the first appearance of The Prince in manuscript, controversy had swirled about his writings".

Throughout history scepticism and the urge to question accepted truths has been a powerful force for change and growth. Today, as we are bombarded by adverts, scientific studies praising the latest superfoods, and political rhetoric, a healthy amount of scepticism is widely encouraged. But when is such scepticism legitimate - for example, as a driver of new ideas - and when is it problematic? And what role might adopting a sceptical outlook play in leading an intellectually virtuous life?

A través de un profundo análisis, Kant investiga cómo percibimos y comprendemos el mundo, cuestionando las bases del conocimiento racional. Este tratado filosófico no solo redefine la epistemología moderna, sino que también invita a una profunda reflexión sobre la naturaleza del pensamiento y la experiencia humana, estableciendo las bases para la crítica filosófica y la metafísica en la era moderna.

Vividly written, The Infidel and the Professor is a compelling account of a great friendship of two towering Enlightenment thinkers that had great consequences for modern thought. David Hume is widely regarded as the most important philosopher ever to write in English, but during his lifetime, he was attacked as "the Great Infidel" for his skeptical religious views and deemed unfit to teach the young. In contrast, Adam Smith was a revered professor of moral philosophy and is now often hailed as the founding father of capitalism.

Democracy has been hollowed out by capitalism. A narrow view of markets and their aims now dominates thinking about democracy itself. Citizens are ignorant of the deep principles of self-governance, having long since adopted a facile equation between democracy and voting as a consumer choice. Lisa Herzog argues that democracy is still possible, but only if democratic values get embedded in everyday experience―including economic experience. That requires new ways of thinking about markets and their goals.

After years in entrepreneurship, various industries, and civic engagement, I’ve noticed how little many people truly understand about government, power structures, and how to pursue their aspirations within these systems. This widespread knowledge gap often hinders progress and blocks our society from realizing its full potential. Motivated by this realization—and inspired by the invaluable work of Catherine Austin Fitts—I wrote this book to help close that gap.

John Locke: Enlightenment philosopher, father of liberalism, inventor of “natural rights,” and accidental spiritual patron of land developers, libertarians, and your uncle who won’t shut up about property taxes.

Masculinity is on life support. Here's how to pull the plug on woke tyranny. Do you feel society is gaslighting men into surrendering their identity?

No Self, No God, No Clue: David Hume and the Joy of Destroying Everything is your ruthlessly sarcastic crash course in the philosophy of David Hume—history’s most cheerful intellectual arsonist.

Seit Menschengedenken wird gelogen - aus Neid, Habgier, Rache, Not, Liebe, Angst und Wut. Aber wie entsteht die Schwäche des Lügens in uns und wie nutzen wir sie für unsere Ziele?

For generations, listeners have debated the origins and studied the knowledge of this mysterious exploration of Hermetic wisdom, attributed to "Three Initiates." Now in its second century, The Kybalion is restored. The new introduction by Richard Smoley, a celebrated scholar of mystical traditions, makes this a historical keepsake.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau es recordado como uno de los grandes pensadores del siglo XVIII, pero su obra El Contrato Social es más que un tratado político: es también una guía profunda para la libertad personal, la autodisciplina y el crecimiento interior. Si bien se enmarca en el contexto de cómo debe organizarse un Estado justo, sus enseñanzas pueden leerse como una metáfora poderosa sobre cómo ser el soberano de tu propia vida.

The Travelling Ape is an award-winning book that explores what travelling the world taught him about life, humanity, and the geopolitical turmoil that so defines us.

Von Augsburg über Ulm bis Tübingen begegnet er der deutschen Geschichte seit dem Mittelalter und versucht sie mit den jüngsten Verbrechen in Zusammenhang zu bringen.

God or Nature, Whatever is what happens when a philosophy grad student decides to explain Baruch Spinoza—the 17th-century lens grinder who got canceled by every major religion—using sarcasm, swearing, and a deeply unhealthy relationship with Euclidean geometry. Sophia Blackwell takes Spinoza's Ethics (a book structured like a math textbook, only less fun) and translates it into plain, hilarious, possibly heretical English. The result? A philosophical roast that actually teaches you something. Inside, you'll learn: Why Spinoza thought God was just...
