حين يستمع المرء إلي كتاب سعد البازعي"الاختلاف الثقافي وثقافية الاختلاف"الصادر عن المركز الثقافي، لا بد من أن يتذكر صراع الآراء حول المثاقفة في ما عُرف تاريخياً عند العرب بعصر الترجمة، بين دعاة العربية الصافية، وتيار التغيير. ولا بد من أن يتذكر صراع دُعاة الأصالة والحداثة في مطلع عصر النهضة. وتذكره في هذا السياق هو من باب التمهيد لولوج باب الاختلاف الثقافي عند الباحث السعودي، الذي يستهله بباب التساؤل عن الأنا والآخر، وعن منشأ النظرية وانتقالها، وعن ولادة المنهج وتعريبه. لينتقل في ما بعد الى الاستشراق والمستشرقين، والعرب في الثقافة الأميركية، والهامش

Philosophy has always been dangerous for philosophers; Friedrich Nietzsche made it dangerous for everyone. His ideas presaged a collective madness which was to ravage Europe throughout the first half of the 20th century, drawing a chilling parallel with the insanity that gripped Nietzsche towards the end of his life. His philosophy is one of aphorisms and penetrating psychological insights, his major concept being the Will to Power - a notion that he saw as the basic impulse for all our acts.

Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Solitude by Michael Harris, read by Kerry Shale. Solitude is a rapidly vanishing experience. Our society now embraces sharing like never before: time alone is being forced out of our lives by the constant pings of smartphones and prods of social media. But what if being alone still has something to offer us - something we have forgotten, but that we still desperately need?

KT Guttenberg nimmt sich die Zeit. Seine Texte auf LinkedIn, jeweils von Hunderttausenden gelesen, entspringen Alltagssituationen und Beobachtungen vom Wegesrand, er entdeckt Details unseres Lebens, die wir gern mal übersehen; er spürt Erlebnissen und Gedanken nach, die ihn inspirieren oder beunruhigen – auch, aber nicht nur, in der Politik. Er verbindet das Kleine mit dem Großen, das Absurde mit der Analyse und spiegelt das widersprüchliche Lebensgefühl unserer Zeit in einem lakonischen, immer wieder auch selbstironischen Stil.

Deus existe? Dentre todas as perguntas que permeiam a existência humana, definitivamente a questão sobre a existência de Deus tem sido uma das mais debatidas na história. Provar Deus desde sempre foi e é uma das tarefas em que inúmeros filósofos se debruçaram. O debate sobre a existência de Deus tem instigado o pensamento humano por toda sua trajetória. O objetivo dessa obra não é buscar nenhuma resposta definitiva ou objetiva com relação ao conceito de Deus.

Philosophy for busy people. Read a succinct account of the philosophy of Leibniz in just one hour.Leibniz was the first great German philosopher to produce an all-embracing philosophical system. He came to the remarkable conclusion that space and time do not exist – they are mere superstitious assumptions. Only things exist and only God is able to see things as they truly are – from a perspectiveless viewpoint. Yet the infinite of ultimate objects that make up the world (‘monads’) are not material: they are metaphysical and thus not subject to the laws of cause and effect.

Ever felt as though life would be simpler if it came with an instruction manual? There are no easy answers to the big questions. And life does not follow a straight path from A to B. Since the beginning of time, people have asked questions about how they should live and, from Ancient Greece to Japan, philosophers have attempted to solve these questions for us. The timeless wisdom that they offer can help us to find our own path.

En este breve ensayo, ¿Qué es el Dinero?, Tolstói analiza el dinero no solo como herramienta económica, sino como símbolo de poder y desigualdad. Sostiene que el dinero permite a unos pocos vivir a expensas del trabajo de muchos, y que su acumulación casi siempre implica injusticia. Para él, el sistema económico moderno es inmoral porque legitima la explotación y aleja al ser humano de una vida sencilla y justa.

This audiobook contains a combination of meditative, narrative, and lyrical poetry expressed in a raw yet sophisticated manner, filled with colorful colloquial soliloquies conveying creative confessions through self-observation. It embodies aspects of life that people can relate to...It’s a front row seat into areas of life that some are familiar with and appreciate while others can experience the thrill of urban culture without risking anything other than enjoying one hell of a ride.

Anger is all around us, from divisive social media arguments and heightened political divides to road rage and personal spats; from Black Lives Matter and climate justice movements to Trump, incels and white supremacists. When it materialises, it seems to cry out for recognition and response. It affects our bodies and can transition into violence. It can be inherited through the generations; it can manifest in criminal acts. What should we do with it, and can it ever be put to good use?

Dal prof di "BarbaSophia", un libro illuminante su come la filosofia antica possa essere, per i giovani e non solo, un prezioso baricentro nella complessa epoca in cui viviamo. Il nostro è un tempo con poche certezze e tante cose che non funzionano più. Una fase storica in cui è difficile orientarsi. Dalla solitudine alla mancanza di dialogo, dall'assenza di verità alla crisi della politica, passando per le inquietudini della tecnologia e il tabú della morte, sono tante le vulnerabilità con cui ci ritroviamo a fare i conti.

In this little audiobook will be found a few hints on the art of service which I have gathered from my elders and from my own experience. I am still trying to follow these hints, sometimes successfully, more often unsuccessfully; but I feel that they are all true, and I am thankful to be permitted to share them with others who - like myself - are learning how to serve.

Digital Consciousness is a philosophical dialogue into the evolution of consciousness within the digital terrain and the legacy footprint on the human family. Exploring the emotional 'digital' frequency of self is a concept that Tenille Bentley has given a great deal of thought to, and some of the answers to these questions and more may surprise you. While not everyone wants to ‘change the world’ we do all have the power at our fingertips now to radically affect change for someone, somewhere, some place. Recognising this ability and harnessing how we use the internet is the basis for this book.

Written from the perspective of seniors enjoying the fourth quarter of life, even as they wonder about sudden-death overtime. Often funny, occasionally melancholy, but always heartfelt, these universal reflections on life are the perfect excuse for family communication across the generations. And a reason for creating your own family history. Past, present, and future. But don't feel left out if you're a much younger listener.

Unsere bürgerliche Gesellschaft ist einem Zangenangriff auf die Normalität ausgesetzt – nämlich einmal durch die "Wokeness" der Kulturrevolutionäre und zum andern durch den Alarmismus der politisch-medialen Elite. Die Wokeness stellt das Verhältnis von normal und pathologisch auf den Kopf. Der Alarmismus stellt das Verhältnis von normal und extrem auf den Kopf. Das, was früher als Neurose betrachtet wurde, soll jetzt als selbstbestimmter Lebensentwurf anerkannt werden.

Viviamo nell'epoca che più di ogni altra celebra la libertà e la proclama un diritto assoluto. Eppure qualcosa non torna. Una nebbia sottile, silenziosa, si è insinuata nelle nostre vite: non vieta, non ordina, non punisce. Seduce. E mentre promette tranquillità e benessere ci spinge verso l'omologazione, spegnendo il pensiero critico, inibendo la creatività e il coraggio di essere diversi.

In The Shape of Change, Dynamic Materialism and Adaptive Realism are introduced as complementary frameworks that redefine how we understand and navigate the complexities of interconnected systems in a rapidly changing world. Dynamic Materialism emphasizes the material and structural forces that drive systemic behavior, focusing on feedback loops, constraints, and emergent properties that govern the evolution of ecosystems, economies, and technologies.
