A democratic republic depends upon two unassailable truths: Freedom can only exist (1) where the laws of God are considered absolute and (2) where the majority believe that God, not man and not government, created men and women equal. This book is founded on the principle that only truth can make us free and that the Holy Bible is the foundation of our freedom. This book explores law - the laws of God and the laws of man, and defines freewill, agency, freedom, and liberty - and presents what is necessary to maintain our liberty.

Combining science and spirituality to reveal the true nature of the universe - this book will change perceptions, inspire mind shifts and alter the way we see the world, forever.

Le testimonianze raccolte in questo libro, curato da Franco Basaglia e sua moglie Franca Ongaro e pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1975, costituiscono una sorta di ricerca a più voci sul ruolo dell'intellettuale e del tecnico come custodi di istituzioni violente.

The Enchiridion is a collection of the most profound teachings of Epictetus (c. 55-135 AD), who taught that philosophy is a way of life and not just a matter of theory.

Misfortune should not disturb the individual at all, and should not be perceived negatively.

Explaining the world around us, and the life within it, is one of the most uniquely human drives, and the most celebrated activity of science. Good explanations are what provide accurate causal accounts of the things we wonder at, but explanation's earthly origins haven't grounded it: we have used it to account for the grandest and most wondrous mysteries in the natural world. Explanations give us a sense of understanding, but an explanation that feels right doesn't mean it is true.

"So wenig als möglich sitzen; keinem Gedanken Glauben schenken, der nicht im Freien geboren ist und bei freier Bewegung, in dem nicht auch die Muskeln ein Fest feiern!" Der Philosoph Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) war kein Mann des Schreibtischs. Er hielt es nur dort aus, wo es Wanderwege gab: am Meer oder in den Bergen, "wo selbst die Wege nachdenklich werden". Seine Gedankengänge dagegen führten ihn in wegloses Gelände. Vorbei an schwindelerregenden Abgründen, in völlige Einsamkeit und schließlich in die Region der Gipfel und des ewigen Eises.
