Story
Culto della giovinezza, idolatria dell'intelligenza, ossessione della crescita economica, tirannia della moda: sono alcuni dei miti di oggi che Umberto Galimberti passa in rassegna per smontarli e denunciarne la natura ingannevole, mostrando come i falsi miti siano in realtà "idee malate", non avvertite come tali, e quindi tanto più capaci di diffondere i loro effetti nefasti senza trovare la minima resistenza. Sono i miti del nostro tempo, le idee che più di altre ci pervadono e ci plasmano come individui e come società.

Your intellectual freedom is at stake, threatened by everything from academia and Big Tech to the media and government. Fortunately, you have a way to take back personal control, and it’s a solution founded upon ancient philosophy. In Restoring Reason, philosopher Dr. Travis Corcoran demonstrates how the liberal arts provide us with a skillset to evaluate knowledge and draw our own conclusions for clarity, confidence, and freedom.

Story
Recognizing the power of the new and trying to understand and promote the conditions that make it possible, the Greeks were the first to write about innovation and even the first to record a word for forging something new. In short, the Greeks "invented" innovation itself - and they still have a great deal to teach us about it. How to Innovate is an engaging introduction to key ideas about - and examples of - innovation and creative thinking from ancient Greece. Armand D'Angour provides lively new translations of selections from Aristotle, Diodorus, and Athenaeus.

Story
Talking Cure is a timely and enticing excursion into the art of good conversation. Paula Marantz Cohen reveals how conversation connects us in ways that social media never can and explains why simply talking to each other freely and without guile may be the cure to what ails our troubled society. Drawing on her lifelong immersion in literature and culture and her decades of experience as a teacher and critic, Cohen argues that we learn to converse in our families and then carry that knowledge into a broader world where we encounter diverse opinions and sensibilities.

Story
Le texte qui suit fut rédigé en 1913, dans un contexte social et culturel marqué notamment par l'industrialisation de la France, l'émergence du modèle capitaliste en Occident et les changements profonds qu'implique le basculement d'un modèle de société vers un autre. Et c'est justement de la critique d'un système de représentation dont il est ici question, de la remise en cause d'une idéologie naissante qui place désormais l'argent au sommet des valeurs.

This book looks over the greatest battle of human history, the fight between rationalism and the oppressive regimes society constantly imposes on free thinkers.

The author thought that rationalism had won a victory, but the modern listener will feel a creeping dread as parallels with movements in today's society are revealed.

Story
Reputation touches almost everything, guiding our behavior and choices in countless ways. But it is also shrouded in mystery. Why is it so powerful when the criteria by which people and things are defined as good or bad often appear to be arbitrary? Why do we care so much about how others see us that we may even do irrational and harmful things to try to influence their opinion? In this engaging book, Gloria Origgi draws on philosophy, social psychology, sociology, economics, and more to offer an illuminating account of an important yet oddly neglected subject.

È il 9 ottobre 1963. Sono le 22.39 quando una gigantesca frana di roccia si stacca dal monte Toc precipitando nel bacino idroelettrico che chiude il passaggio del torrente Vajont. L'acqua supera il limite di sicurezza dell'invaso travolgendo i paesi intorno al lago, e un'onda enorme scavalca la diga riversandosi nel fondo valle. Interi conglomerati urbani vengono spazzati via, quasi duemila persone perdono la vita.

It demonstrates the breadth of the challenges posed by these issues by covering a wide range of policy areas: from health care to old-age support, from democratic participation to education, and from family to fiscal policy. With contributions from twenty-one authors, the discussion bridges the gap between academia and public life by putting in dialogue fresh philosophical analysis and specific new policy proposals.

Story
The Enchiridion and Discourses is a compilation of Epictetus's philosophical teachings. Although Epictetus spent much of his life as a slave, he believed that all people were free to control their emotional well-being and live in harmony with their circumstance and those around them. His works are a guide for applying philosophy to day-to-day living. Although many of the great philosophers, such as Plato and Aristotle, promoted grand ideas, they never approached the subject of integrating those ideas into everyday life.
