A Social History of Analytic Philosophy
Analytic philosophy is the leading form of philosophy in the English-speaking world. What explains its continued success? Christoph Schuringa argues that its enduring power can only be understood by examining its social history. Analytic philosophy tends to think of itself as concerned with eternal questions, transcending the changing scenes of history. It thinks of itself as apolitical. This book, however, convincingly shows that the opposite is true.
The origins of analytic philosophy are in a set of distinct movements, shaped by high-ly specific sets of political and social forces. Only after the Second World War were these disparate, often dynamic movements joined together to make 'analytic philosophy' as we know it. In the climate of McCarthyism, analytic philosophy was robbed of political force.
To this day, analytic philosophy is the ideology of the status quo. It may seem arcane and largely removed from the real world, but it is a crucial component in upholding liberalism, through its central role in elite educational institutions. As Schuringa concludes, the apparently increasing friendliness of analytic philosophers to rival approaches in philosophy should be understood as a form of colonization; thanks to its hegemonic status, it reformats all it touches in service of its own imperatives, going so far as to colonize decolonial efforts in the discipline.
Jemný aktivismus
Kniha představuje jemný aktivismus jako inovativní přístup ke společenské změně, který vzniká na pomezí spirituality a aktivismu, v němž nejde ani tak o individuální růst, ale o podporu kolektivní transformace.
Jemný aktivismus může sehrát zvlášť významnou úlohu právě v této historické době, neboť vnáší transformativní moudrost spirituality do veřejného prostoru, tak aby sloužila jako hojivý balzám na souběžné sociální, ekonomické, ekologické a duchovní krize, s nimiž jsme dnes konfrontováni. Kniha rozvíjí koncepce Teilharda de Chardin, Thomase Berryho a Richarda Tarnase a hledá nové porozumění tomu, kdo jsme a jak navazujeme vztahy k druhým lidem, k planetě a ke kosmu.
Jemný aktivismus není jen intelektuálním konceptem, nýbrž praxí, do níž se vášnivě zapojuje stále větší počet lidí, kteří se chtějí podílet na uzdravování našeho světa.
The Problem of Personhood
Over the last twenty-five years, the concept of personhood has become essential-to debates about providing corporations human privileges, limiting access to abortion, giving algorithms free speech protections, releasing elephants from zoos, and permitting trees the standing to sue. The Personhood Problem reveals the unsettling connections between these imagined persons and their sought-after rights, in a bracing and nuanced examination of the versions of personhood proliferating today. Synthesizing the political and philosophical debates on personhood, the book uncovers the unexpected, disturbing, and dangerous alignments between them.
Telling the true and engaging story of the oldest version of "fictional" personhood-the corporate one-this book helps us rethink that history and its use, or threat, to us now.
O krátkosti života
O krátkosti života (orig. De brevitate vitae) je takmer dvojtisícročný list Luciusa Senecu napísaný v roku 49. Ide o vôbec prvý preklad diela do slovenského jazyka.

Návod na použití vesmíru
Myslíte, že jóga je jen gymnastika pro vychrtlé askety? Kdepak! Roztočte mozkové závity a rozdmýchejte zvídavost přemýšlením o jádru pudla. Karma, samsára, mantra, guna, dharma... Vážně i humorně, ale hlavně prakticky! Co přináší dávná moudrost východu moderním zápaďákům? Víc, než si myslíte! Však starověkou Indii i svět 21. století spojuje to, že ve středu je člověk kladoucí si zásadní otázky o smyslu života a zároveň řešící každodenní maličkosti. Jak tedy žít lépe a hlavně šťastně? Stačí otevřít...
A felülemelkedettség művészete
,,Nem önmagam vagyok, hanem önmagam szemlélője vagyok."
A tradicionális metafizika talaján állva és onnan némelykor elrugaszkodva tárgyalja a szerző a létezés alapvető és végső kérdéseit, nem hallgatva el a szerelem és szexualitás témáját sem.
A kötet célja a jó értelemben vett provokáció, a gondolatébresztés, a termékeny vita és eszmecsere előmozdítása, valamint a buddhista-szkeptikus felülemelkedettséghez szükséges támpontok megadása.
,,A globális válság közepette a legnagyobb veszélyben az éberség forog. A modern ember ugyanúgy nem tud csendben maradni, mint ahogy nem tud befelé fordulni. Ha az éberség elvész, minden elvész. Pusztán gondolati, filozófiai, elméleti, intellektuális, hermeneutikai, tudományos és verbális síkon az emberi problémák nem oldhatók meg. Bármiféle változás csak egyéni elmélyülésből és törekvésből indulhat el."
TORNAI SZABOLCS 1971-ben született Budapesten. Író, filozófus, szerkesztő. Ez a nyolcadik önálló kötete.
Beginning to Live
A user's guide to the everyday challenges of living, which looks to philosophy to reframe the way we understand ourselves and our relationships
How can we find our own direction and purpose? When life feels too much, is it possible to free ourselves from the concerns that weigh us down? Whether you're in therapy or prefer to find your own way through life's struggles, pioneering therapist Emmy van Deurzen offers a lifeline for rebuilding trust in the world.
Beginning to Live is a practical invitation to step back and discover what really matters by considering each of the four key aspects of our experience in turn: physical, social, personal and spiritual.
Harnessing over fifty years' experience, this book is filled with wisdom and moving stories that show how to deal with dilemmas and difficulties of every kind, so that even when survival takes all you have, you can rekindle confidence in your own abilities and revitalize your capacity to relate to others. It is not about a quality of personality or character, which you either have or don't have, van Deurzen shows. It is about a way of being, which is available to each of us - enabling us all to find a more engaged way of living that is purposeful, deliberate and buoyant.
Your future is a work of art in progress. And it starts here.
Waking Up
For the millions of people who want spirituality without religion, Sam Harris's new book is a guide to meditation as a rational spiritual practice informed by neuroscience and psychology.
Throughout the book, Harris argues that there are important truths to be found in the experience of contemplatives such as Jesus, Buddha and other saints and sages of history-and, therefore, that there is more to understanding reality than science and secular culture generally allow.
Waking Up is part seeker's memoir and part exploration of the scientific underpinnings of spirituality. No other book marries contemplative wisdom and modern science in this way, and no author other than Sam Harris-a scientist, philosopher, and famous sceptic-could write it.
Jump!
Do you repeatedly defer life to later, convinced there will come a time when you'll be better prepared to seize its opportunities?
Do you spend your best hours on chores or trivia before allowing yourself to get to what most matters to you?
The real mystery of procrastination is why we avoid goals to which we're passionately committed. It's understandable that we'd put off cleaning the fridge or completing our tax return; but why do we swerve a loved one, a vocation, a hobby, or a new life that feels supremely meaningful to us?
Simon May argues that the almost universal consensus around overcoming procrastination - setting priorities and optimizing time management: working "smarter not harder" - might work for the boring things but is of little use when it comes to treasured goals that we're avoiding.
Jump! proposes seven radically new ways in which we can overcome this life-sabotaging procrastination. May claims that, for all their pain, the regret and boredom created by procrastination can shine the brightest light on our top priorities, either reaffirming our commitment to them or teaching us that we're on the wrong path. This is the unexpected blessing of procrastination: that it offers hope of becoming ourselves.
Moral Ambition
The average full-time worker will spend 80,000 hours at their job: are you making the most of them? Do you truly believe in what you do, day in, day out? Every day we're bombarded with methods, mantras and life hacks that promise us wellness and prosperity, while time and talent remain some of our most squandered resources.
What if you want to do something more with your limited time on the planet?
With moral ambition - the will to make the world a wildly better place - internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman shows us we can be both idealistic and successful, and change the world along the way. Uncovering the qualities that made the great change-makers of history so effective, he shows how we too can lend our talents to the biggest challenges of our time, from climate change to inequality to the next pandemic. With moral ambition, we can do more than be on the right side of history: we can make history itself.
This book won't make your life easier, but it should make it more meaningful. The question is: what will you do with it?
Moral Ambition is a must-read for anyone wondering what they should do with their working life, how to find their purpose and how to find something more worthwhile to do with their skills and talents.
As the 2025 BBC Reith Lecturer, Rutger Bregman presented 'Moral Revolution', a four part series:
-A Time of Monsters
-How To Start a Moral Revolution
-A Realist's Utopia
-Zoom Out
Available to listen on BBC Four

The Score
Is this the game you want to be playing?
Scoring systems are everywhere. Underpinning our daily lives – whether it’s the fit bits on our wrists, likes on social media, and even school rankings – they have become pervasive and increasingly dangerous, warping our desires and outsourcing our values to external institutions. Instead of encouraging us to be more playful, to take pleasure in the journey of striving towards a goal, institutions, corporations and bureaucracies weaponize scoring systems to impose their own interests. No matter what, we always seem to be playing by someone else’s rules.
In The Score, philosopher C. Thi Nguyen shows us how this newly ‘gamified’ world has fundamentally captured our value systems, turning what might be moral or personal life choices into numerical data, and forcing us to prioritise what can be measured and monetized over what is truly meaningful to us.
A life-long lover of online and board games himself, Nguyen argues that we should not stop playing games but rather take a step back and become more aware of their immersive and profound power, so that we might chart a way towards more creative and joyful lives. To start playing our own game.

Ikigai
We all have an ikigai.
It's the Japanese word for 'a reason to live' or 'a reason to jump out of bed in the morning'.
It's the place where your needs, desires, ambitions, and satisfaction meet. A place of balance. Small wonder that finding your ikigai is closely linked to living longer.
Finding your ikigai is easier than you might think. This book will help you work out what your own ikigai really is, and equip you to change your life. You have a purpose in this world: your skills, your interests, your desires and your history have made you the perfect candidate for something. All you have to do is find it.
Do that, and you can make every single day of your life joyful and meaningful.
Texty k dekonstrukci. Práce z let 1967–1972
Je-li Derridova diferance zároveň odstupem, spacializací, a odkladem, temporalizací, pak nám sama nabízí způsob, jak po letech číst jeho rané texty, jejichž výbor se českým čtenářům dostal do rukou poprvé v roce 1993. Znovu a znovu nás vtahují do hry, která není o nic méně podivná a podivuhodná než dřív, neboť význam se při ní rodí z diferencí, trhlin v prostoru i čase, které rozrušují zdánlivě pevnou a kompaktní tkáň našeho světa a jazyka. Dekonstrukce je nevyhnutelným krokem k tomu, abychom se dokázali znovu stvořit. Podobni plavcům ve studené vodě se noříme do živlu, jenž je nám cizí, abychom se stali jinými, aniž bychom se rozpadli nebo rozpustili.

The Unconscious
A highly original first anthology on the cultural history of the unconscious that is destined to become definitive. 'Know thyself' the injunction that was once inscribed upon the Temple of Apollo became a touchstone for classical and modern philosophers before being embraced as the end game of psychoanalysis by Freud and his followers. The conceptual baggage that Freud took on his armchair journey into the unconscious mind is well-known and so, too, the more recent science on implicit memory, blindsight and automatic processing but the history of the unconscious beyond the consulting room and laboratory has largely been overlooked. From ancient dream theory to hypnosis, somnambulism to psychedelic mind-expansion, The Unconscious by Antonio Melechi traces the wider social and scientific history of the unconscious mind. It brings together a chorus of voices including Nietzsche, Henri Bergson, Mary Arnold Foster, Swami Vivekananda, and Philip K. Dick, to name only some to investigate the elusive psychology of memory and learning, instinct and imagination, creative breakthrough and mental breakdown. Moving beyond the familiar psychoanalytic framework, the book draws on a rich seam of sources, including case studies, psychological experiments, pulp fiction, urban legend, and commercial hype. Approaching the unconscious as both a product of discovery and invention, the anthology underscores its importance as a perennial source of debate, a tantalizing mirror to our hidden selves, and a powerful master key that continues to influence contemporary thought.
Aristotle's Political Philosophy
Aristotle's Political Philosophy offers a concise and accessible overview of Aristotle's political thought in his Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, and Rhetoric. Aristotle's writings on politics are known for their legendary complexity and contradictions. In Aristotle's Political Philosophy, renowned scholar Mark Blitz draws connections between the Nicomachean Ethics, Politics, and Rhetoric to explain how these texts relate and interact with each other. Throughout the book, Blitz examines the foundations of political action, devoting special attention to Aristotle's understanding of virtue, justice, slavery, education, friendship, statesmanship, and speech. In doing so, Blitz clarifies the central ethical and political concepts presented throughout these works to articulate how these texts, together, advance a coherent political philosophy. After offering a comprehensive analysis of Aristotle's political thought, Blitz ultimately argues that Aristotelian philosophy remains fundamental for understanding modern political opinions, practices, and institutions.
How to Compete
An energetic new translation of the ancient Greek satirist Lucian’s humorous and enlightening dialogue on the pros—and cons—of athletics, fitness, and competitionSports and philosophy went hand in hand for the ancient Greeks and Romans, and philosophical conversation was a recognized part of gym life throughout Greco-Roman antiquity. Athens’s Lyceum was a gym—and reportedly a hangout of that philosophical gym rat Socrates—before it became the site of Aristotle’s school. Fittingly, that gym is the setting of the Greek satirist Lucian’s Anacharsis, a witty philosophical dialogue that wrestles with questions about the purpose and value of sports—questions that we are still grappling with in our own sports- and fitness-obsessed times. How to Compete presents a new translation of Lucian’s timeless classic, inviting us into a ringside debate about the point of sports. Pitting a sports skeptic, Anacharsis, against a superfan, Solon, this delightful and thought-provoking work tries to make sense of sports. Why do so many of us care so much about them? Are sports like boxing too violent? Should we take fitness so seriously? Do athletics have educational value? And, most important of all, why did the ancient Greeks exercise naked? While Anacharsis, observing a Greek sport that sounds something like mixed martial arts, asks what kind of citizens set aside serious affairs to watch young men beat each other to a pulp, Solon counters that sports have great civic benefits and that athletes are ultimately competing for the highest prize—human excellence. Featuring an inviting introduction, a handy glossary, helpful notes, and the original Greek on facing pages, How to Compete is a winning exploration of why sports are more than just a game.
Matters of Truth
In Matters of Truth, Carlo Agostoni explores the frames and narratives shaping our understanding of whistleblowing, truth-telling, and their cultural histories. Narratives of whistleblowing are stories of truth-telling, first and foremost, but they are also stories of complication and conflicts of interest. The whistleblower is remedy and cure for some and poison and treason for others. But the anchor of the whistleblower is the immensity of factuality?-?an anchor that pulls him down and turns him into a tragic hero. But truth-telling is not the dominant frame surrounding whistleblowing in media, scholarship, nor politics. One of the dominant frames used to describe whistleblowing is leaking. Frames are not just words; they constitute the cognitive structures we think with. Framing a social phenomenon as 'leaking'?taps into our neural circuitry and a hidden realm of deep narratives. It is therefore imperative to study these narratives and frames that rule our unconscious and yield moral narratives we are commonly unaware of -?especially with a sociocultural phenomenon such as whistleblowing. Drawing on a wealth of examples and a wide range of philosophers, sociologists, cognitive linguists, literary critics, historians, and social psychologists, Carlo Agostoni analyzes the cultural narratives about whistleblowers that ignite explosions of truth and justice and the frames we use to defame them -?both knowingly and unknowingly. Words matter. Narratives matter. Especially in matters of truth.
