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.

A call to save ourselves and our planet by targeting the root of our inaction: extreme shortsightedness.

«إن المفتاح السحري في كتابة الرحلات لا يكمن في إجادة وصف الديار والأنهار والجبال والوديان والسهول، ولا في الحديث عن اختلاف العادات والتقاليد بين المجتمعات المختلفة، بل يكمن في الطقس اللغوي المتميز الذي لا يخلو من عفوية، في كل ما كتبە جمال الغيطاني عن رحلاتە العربية والشرقية والغربية، كما يتمثل في هذ

كان العنوان الأصلي لهذا الكتاب «كُنـَّاشة الدكان»، و قد تغيرت كلمة «كناشة» بخطأ من سامي فريد إلى «كناسة» ، واغتفر يحيى حقي الخطأ — ثم تحول الغفران إلى قبول الخطأ فوافق على «استمرار» كلمة «كناسة». يتكون هذا الكتاب من مجموعة من المقالات في 3 أقسام: «من عالم الطفولة» و«من ذكريات الحجاز» و«في درب الحياة». وقد نُشرت هذه المقالات بين عاميْ 1945 و1970 في جريدتي «المساء» و«التعاون» ومجلتي «المجلة» و»الثقافة» وتتميز بأسلوب رشيق عُرف به الكاتب، ويجمع ما بين عمق الفكرة وصدق العاطفة ونضج التجربة وطرافة الحكي وبساطة وجمال الأداء.

Misogyny is a hot topic, yet it's often misunderstood. What is misogyny, exactly? Who deserves to be called a misogynist? How does misogyny contrast with sexism, and why is it prone to persist - or increase - even when sexist gender roles are waning? This book is an exploration of misogyny in public life and politics by the moral philosopher Kate Manne. It argues that misogyny should not be understood primarily in terms of the hatred or hostility some men feel toward all or most women. Rather, it's primarily about controlling, policing, punishing, and exiling the "bad" women.

Over the past decades, a healthy appreciation for the culture and heritage of minorities has transformed into an obsession with group identity in all its forms. A new ideology - which Yascha Mounk terms the 'identity synthesis' - seeks to put each citizen's matrix of identities at the heart of social, cultural and political life. This, he argues, is The Identity Trap. Mounk traces the intellectual origin of these ideas. He tells the story of how they were able to win tremendous power over the past decade.

Have you heard that language is violence and that science is sexist? Have you read that certain people shouldn't practice yoga? Or been told that being obese is healthy, that there is no such thing as biological sex, or that only White people can be racist? Are you confused by these ideas, and do you wonder how they have managed to challenge the logic of Western society? In this probing volume, Helen Pluckrose and James Lindsay document the evolution of the dogma that informs these ideas, from its coarse origins in French postmodernism to its refinement within activist academic fields.

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.

Drawing on decades of work in philosophy including a huge range of interviews with contemporary philosophers, Julian Baggini sets out how philosophical thought can promote incisive thinking.

In this enlightening book, anthropologist Manvir Singh offers a new explanation for one of the most misunderstood religious traditions. Travelling from Indonesia to the Amazon, living with shamans and observing music, drug use and indigenous curing ceremonies, he journeys into the origins of shamanism. Fundamentally, shamans are specialists who use altered states to engage with unseen realities and provide services like healing and divination. As Singh shows, shamanism’s ubiquity stems from its psychological resonance.

Ever wanted to sound unbearably pretentious at dinner parties? Wondered how one French philosopher managed to make an entire career out of writing sentences no human being could understand?

A stevedore on the San Francisco docks in the 1940s, Eric Hoffer wrote philosophical treatises in his spare time while living in the railroad yards.
