This audiobook proposes a radical yet disciplined thesis: the Gospel is not only interpretable, but formally expressible, and its internal structure requires formalization if it is to remain stable, transmissible, and intelligible across radically different forms of intelligence.

I saggi di questo volume, che toccano la politica, la religione, la letteratura, la filosofia, la matematica e la scienza, sono raccolti in sezioni che si aprono con interviste immaginarie a personaggi del passato (Hitler, Gesù, Dante, Aristotele, Archimede, Newton) e si chiudono con interviste reali a quelli del presente (Chomsky, il Dalai Lama, Saramago, Kripke, Nash e Watson). Nel mezzo, il matematico impertinente dispiega l'arsenale della ragione per argomentare che non è affatto vero che non possiamo non dirci cristiani, o che siamo tutti americani.

Language does not merely divide or connect; it resonates. The Mutual Enrichment of Languages explores the hidden kinship among the Germanic tongues and reveals how meaning expands when words diverge yet remain bound by a shared inner form. Moving beyond academic linguistics, this book offers a philosophical exploration of how recognition arises in the mind when familiar roots return in altered shapes across Dutch, German, Norwegian, Swedish, and Old English.

The Limit of Complexity is a philosophical investigation into one of the defining conditions of the contemporary world: the moment when complexity, once a source of power and progress, begins to turn against the systems that generate it. Moving across natural systems, economics, technology, politics, ethics, and human cognition, Boris Kriger examines how accumulation, interconnection, and scale quietly transform coherence into fragility. This book does not oppose complexity, nor does it idealize simplicity.

Publicado en 1895, este breve diálogo filosófico entre Aquiles y una tortuga, es una parábola lógica inspirada en la famosa paradoja de Zenón, pero aplicada a la lógica del razonamiento en lugar del movimiento físico. En la historia, Aquiles intenta convencer a la tortuga de aceptar una conclusión lógica (Z) derivada de dos premisas (A y B). La tortuga acepta A y B, pero se niega a aceptar Z, argumentando que necesitaría otra premisa adicional (C): «Si A y B son verdaderas, entonces Z debe ser verdadera.

Is it sexist to say that “men are trash”? Can white people be victims of racism? Do we bear any individual responsibility for climate change? We’ve all wrestled with questions like these, whether we’re shouting at a relative across the dinner table, quarreling with old classmates on...

You've been here before. You make a solid point, logically sound, only to watch the conversation get hijacked. Suddenly, you're defending against a ridiculous exaggeration, a personal jab, or clever-sounding nonsense that has nothing to do with what you said. You get frustrated, derailed, and defeated—even though you know you're correct. You know you're right—so why do you keep losing the argument?

フレーゲからラッセル、そしてウィトゲンシュタインへ――二十世紀初頭、言葉についての問いと答えが重なりあい、つながりあっていった。天才たちの挑戦は言語哲学の源流を形作っていく。

This short audio on logic argues that logic and science can go hand in hand, and that, by taking observations of perceptions and sensations, and applying logical analysis to them, you have the power to build conceptual models and frameworks that you can use in order to predict what you should do in the future and to reason how to solve the problems in your life.

This is an essay on forgiveness, not in the religious sense, but in a purely secular meaning, as in, when one person forgives another person for something they did wrong. The primary focus is on self-forgiveness, where a person forgives themselves, a concept which this essay explains as "moral bankruptcy," using debts and credits and bankruptcy and economics and finance as a metaphor for the moral debts and moral credits that you owe to yourself and to others, that you owe it to yourself to be a good person.

Während der Cola-Kriege in den 1980er-Jahren wetteiferten Coca-Cola und Pepsi darum, Amerikas beliebteste Limonade zu werden. Doch Coca-Cola nutzte diese Fähigkeit nicht zum richtigen Zeitpunkt und dieser Fehler hätte beinahe eines der ältesten und wertvollsten Unternehmen Amerikas in den Ruin getrieben.

The Rules of Persuasion not only explains exactly how persuasion works in all forms of human communication, but it also presents a clear and effective model you can use to put the elements and chemistry of persuasion to work for you in your personal and professional lives.

The human mind confines the realms of the possible. Many teachings suggest steps, instructions, patterns to follow, etc. I Am Who offers a fresh perspective on what it is to live at peace. No steps, no ordered lists, or the like. As the author suggests, everything one needs is within oneself.

Reason has done much of the heavy lifting throughout history. In this second volume, this book presents quotations from many of history's key figures who both recognize the importance—and also the limitations—of reason.

This small book can change everything if you let it. It's Up to You is based on the twelve principles in the author's Change Your Mind and Your Life Will Follow: tending to our own gardens, focusing on solutions not problems, letting go of preconceived solutions, changing our minds, acting instead of reacting, giving up judgments, giving up trying to control, discovering our own lessons, doing no harm, quieting our minds, treating every encounter as the holy, and discerning our mind's own truth.
