Um mergulho preciso e mordaz no mundo dos endinheirados brasileiros. Há um traço comum a boa parte dos endinheirados brasileiros: eles não se consideram ricos.

Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge—are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of things aid and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal. A summing up of Foucault's own methodological assumptions, this book is also a first step toward a genealogy of the way we live now.

“A faithful translation is rare; a translation which preserves intact the original text is very rare; a perfect translation of Montaigne appears impossible. Yet Donald Frame has realized this feat. One does not seem to be reading a translation, so smooth and easy is the style; at each moment, one seems to be listening to Montaigne himself - the freshness of his ideas, the unexpected choice of words. Frame has kept everything.” (Andre Maurois, The New York Times Book Review)

These transmissions accompany the book The Meaning Of Life. They are concise declarations about truth, illusion, consciousness, and the restoration of individual authority as humanity moves through a profound period of transition — from perception shaped by illusion to reality grounded in awareness. This is not commentary, debate, or self-help. Each episode is a direct reflection designed to cut through noise, challenge inherited assumptions, and return attention to the power, clarity, and responsibility that have always resided within every human being. https://www.themolbook.com

These are some of the questions Michel Hendricks has considered both in his experience as a spiritual formation pastor and in his lifetime as a Christian.
