The Competitive Buddha is about mastery, leadership, and spirituality. Learn what you need to keep, what you need to discard, and what you need to add to your mental, emotional, and spiritual skill set as an athlete, coach, leader, parent, CEO, or any other performer in life. Understand how Buddhism can help you to be better prepared for sports and life, and how sports and life can teach you about Buddhism. Lynch sheds light on the positive aspects of competition, adding Eastern thought and spirituality to sport, while elevating competitors and the game. 

In Our Business Civilization, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James Truslow Adams delivers a sharp and thoughtful critique of early 20th-century American society. With incisive essays first published in leading magazines of the 1920s, Adams explores how business values and the pursuit of profit came to dominate nearly every aspect of American life—shaping its ethics, culture, and intellectual priorities. He contrasts the American experience with that of Europe, where older institutions such as the aristocracy, church, and professions balanced economic ambitions with cultural depth.

"Fast-Food" è una tragedia alimentare per essere letta, una parodia del teatro classico calata su un palco immaginario che solo il lettore saprà ricostruire, per rappresentarvela al meglio. Tra un hamburger, una bibita, un cartoccio di patatine fritte e un caffè lungo, tutti rigorosamente americani, si interpongono frasi fatte, espressioni da copia-incolla, personaggi pre-programmati, risposte sommarie, imprecise, non pertinenti e disumane. In un microcosmo o macrocosmo in cui c'è anche da ridere.

In The Open Conspiracy, H.G. Wells presents a visionary manifesto for reshaping human civilization. Written in the aftermath of World War I and on the brink of global upheaval, Wells calls for a transformative movement rooted in science, reason, and a renewed sense of global purpose.

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.

Das Buch, das kein traditioneller Verlag publizieren wollte. Gelesen vom Autor. In diesem scharfsinnigen und provokanten Essay entlarvt Ulf Poschardt einen neuen Sozialcharakter, der unsere Gesellschaft prägt und lähmt: den „Shitbürger". Poschardt, einer der renommiertesten Journalisten Deutschlands, zeigt auf, wie der Shitbürger in den liberalen, saturierten Gesellschaften des Westens eine beispiellose „Hegemonie" errichtet hat.

Desde mediados del siglo XX, la esperanza de vida ha aumentado en occidente de veinte a treinta años, lo que equivale a toda una existencia en el siglo XVII. Así pues, al llegar a los cincuenta años, experimentamos una suerte de suspensión entre la madurez y la vejez, un intervalo en el que la brevedad de la vida realmente comienza, mientras nos planteamos las grandes cuestiones de nuestra condición.

Ein leidenschaftlicher Appell gegen extremen Reichtum – und für eine gerechtere Gesellschaft. Sebastian Klein zeigt, wie gefährlich Ungleichheit für unsere Demokratie ist, warum sie soziale Spannungen verschärft, den Klimawandel befeuert – und wie wir mit mehr Steuergerechtigkeit gegensteuern können.

તમે માનો કે ના માનો પણ જિંદગીનું સત્ય એ છે કે, ૯૦ ટકાથી વધારે પુરુષ તેમજ મહિલાઓ ભારતમાં જ નહીં બલ્કે સંપૂર્ણ વિશ્વમાં પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા. જ્યારે આપણે પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાથી નથી કહી શકતા, તો એક વિચિત્ર પ્રકારની ગુંગળામણ ઉત્પન્ન થાય છે અને મન વિચલિત રહે છે. આ પુસ્તક સંપૂર્ણ માનવ જાતિના ફાયદા માટે લખવામાં આવી છે, જેથી દરેક વાચકને એ જાણ થઈ શકે કે, ફક્ત એ જ નહીં બલ્કે લાખો-કરોડો વ્યક્તિ પોતાના દિલની વાત બીજાઓથી નથી કહી શકતા.

What to Expect When You're Dead chronicles the ways ancient peoples answered questions such as: How to achieve a good death and afterlife? What's the best way to dispose of a body? Do the dead face a postmortem judgement—and where do they end up? Do the dead have bodies in the afterlife—and can they eat, drink, and have sex? And what can the living do to stay on good terms with the nonliving?

Die Soziologin und Comedienne Katharina Linnepe entlarvt die absurdesten Verhaltensstörungen, Glaubenssätze und Denkmuster unseres Gesellschaftssystems. Kritisch, lehrreich und urkomisch–dieses Buch legt die wahren Ursachen unserer mentalen Probleme offen und zeigt, wie wir einem in der Krise erstarkenden Patriarchat entgegenwirken können.

"Everything is sad," wrote the Ancient poets. But is this sadness merely a human experience, projected onto the world, or is there a gloom attributable to the world itself? Could the universe be forever weeping the "tears of things"? In this series of meditations, Dominic Pettman and Eugene Thacker explore some of the key "negative affects"—both eternal and emergent—associated with climate change, environmental destruction, and cosmic solitude. In so doing they unearth something so obvious that it has gone largely unnoticed: the question of how we should feel about climate change.
