Rien ne sert d'attendre pour être libre. Ne remettez pas votre bonheur au lendemain. Tel est le credo de Jack Kornfield, grand maître occidental du bouddhisme qui, depuis quarante ans, enseigne la pleine présence et la compassion à des milliers de personnes en quête de bien-être et de spiritualité. Mais comment continuer à croire au bonheur quand le deuil ou la maladie nous frappent, quand on perd son travail, quand le simple fait de vivre nous paraît insurmontable ? Pourtant, quelle que soit notre situation, le bonheur est à notre portée, ici et maintenant.

Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, who was India's 11th president and has been a scientist, a technocrat, a teacher and a thinker, brings his vast experience and keen eye for detail to bear in discussing various aspects of governance. He articulates a vision for India and what each citizen must do to make it a reality. It is only by being honest and morally upright and by working hard that we can achieve the mission of a developed India.

What made Franklin Delano Roosevelt an effective leader? His policies and decisions changed our nation’s and the world’s history. But more than his skill as a savvy politician and progressive thinker, FDR’s ability to directly and eloquently voice his thoughts on national concerns, social change, and humanity spoke to and reached the hearts of his people. In this selection of quotes drawn from his speeches and papers, FDR’s observations and opinions cover everything from faith, war, and peace, to religion, freedom, and the very definition of what it is to be an American.

Tutte le culture hanno un'idea del bello e dell'arte, ma non tutte la elaborano in forma teorica consapevole ed esplicita. Il Medioevo - dopo secoli in cui è stato trattato solo come periodo buio e barbaro - è stato riscoperto come un'epoca ricca di riflessioni sulla bellezza, sul piacere estetico, sul gusto, sul bello naturale e artistico, sui rapporti tra l'arte e le altre attività umane.

The greatest philosopher who ever lived. A dissolute tyrant in need of an education. What could possibly go wrong? Plato was the most brilliant thinker of his age. Head of the Academy in Athens, friend of the best minds of his generation, his philosophy was famous across the Greek world. But would he ever get the chance to try his ideas out?

"Moi, j'aurais dit plutôt que, Io, avrei detto piuttosto... Così Green iniziava a volte la sua riflessione su di un caso clinico dopo che gliene avevo parlato. Da lì procedeva nell'esplorazione di un'altra linea di pensiero che poteva incrociare o discostarsi da quella che era stata presentata, ma che ben più sostanzialmente tentava di evidenziare la straordinaria arborescenza delle comunicazioni analitiche, la selezione di uno snodo piuttosto che di un altro, non tanto in termini conflittuali quanto in una modalità che mi appariva complementare, attenta agli intrecci."

Miembro de la Academia francesa y profesor del Collège de France, Marc Fumaroli se reveló en 1991 como un polemista brillante y provocador al publicar El Estado cultural, una indagación histórica de las raíces de la moderna política cultural francesa. La obra, que suscitó encendidos debates, narra el extraño destino de un ámbito, el de la cultura, que sirvió al gaullismo para compensar la agraviada grandeza de Francia y al socialismo para gratificar una ideología derrotada.

For all those sick of politicians and their slick spin, or bored of broadcasters who bombard and bully their hapless interviewees, Do They Think You’re Stupid? has the answers. Written by the author of the best-selling The Pig That Wants to Be Eaten, these short, stimulating capsules of philosophy cut through the woolliest of rhetoric to identify the faulty reasoning and argumentative strategies that are used around us every day.

"La filosofia non si pone prima della concretezza del mondo, ma dopo. Non rappresenta un modo per sfuggire alla realtà ma la via per affrontarne l'ultimo lembo possibile. La filosofia, cioè, non è per codardi ma per individui estremamente coraggiosi, pronti ad affrontare ciò che sembra inaffrontabile: l'apparente mancanza di senso dell'esistenza. La filosofia nasce dal 'thauma', cioè dal terrore, dallo scoramento, dall'apertura nei confronti dell'ignoto. Questa meraviglia estrema è il punto di partenza, il cominciamento del filosofare".

Michael Foley wants to understand why he doesn't appear to be experiencing as much fun as everyone else. So, with characteristic wit and humour, he sets out to understand what fun really means, examining its heritage, its cultural significance and the various activities we associate with fun. He investigates pursuits such as dancing, sex, holidays, sport, gaming and comedy and concludes that fun is not easy, simple and fixed, as many seem to believe, but elusive, complex and constantly changing.

"Most of the serious thinking I have done over the past 20 years has been done while running," says philosophy professor Rowlands, who has run for most of his life. And for him, running and philosophizing are inextricably connected. In Running with the Pack, he reveals the most significant runs of his life - from the entire day he spent running as a boy in Wales, to the runs along French beaches and up Irish mountains with his beloved wolf, Brenin, and through Florida swamps with his dog, Nina.

The Koran, the sacred text at the heart of the second-largest religion in the world, is regarded by Muslims as the exact word of God as revealed to the prophet Muhammad. Representing the ultimate authority on almost every issue related to Muslim life, the Koran’s lessons and parables offer the faithful moral and spiritual guidance.

生活や仕事上の逆境に立ったとき、自分が揺るがないように心の置き場所がつくられている。二千五百年の知恵という宝刀が手に入ることは心強い。

In Defence of Serendipity is a lively and buccaneering work of investigative philosophy, treating the origins of 'serendipity, accident and sagacity' as both riddles and philosophical concepts that can be put to a future political use. Taking in Aristotle, LSD, Tony Blair and techno-mysticism, Olma challenges the prevailing faith in the benevolence of digital technology and the illegitimate equation of innovation and entrepreneurship.

Do we have free will? It's a question that has puzzled philosophers and theologians for centuries and feeds into numerous political, social, and personal concerns. Are we products of our culture or free agents within it? How much responsibility should we take for our actions? Are our neural pathways fixed early on by a mixture of nature and nurture, or is the possibility of comprehensive, intentional psychological change always open to us?

Hasta el coño de lo trans. Así está Elizabeth Duval. Cansada de ser la jovencísima activista antes que la escritora o la filósofa. Está harta y de ese mismo aborrecimiento nace la rabia que mueve este libro, el último de sus esfuerzos para desprenderse del sambenito de lo trans. Pero esto no es una autoficción ni mucho menos un panfleto que pueda repetirse sin digerir. Después de lo trans es un ensayo visceral y ambicioso que acierta en la médula de las guerras culturales e identitarias de nuestro siglo.
