Modern Conflicts: In the Light of the Church Fathers is not a book about political disputes, social polarization, or ideological battles, although all of these inevitably appear in the book. It is a book about the deepest and most painful conflicts of the modern human being — conflicts that unfold not primarily between people, but within the human heart itself.

Why do economists, engineers, epidemiologists, and AI researchers all discover that they need to track momentum in their models? Why do first-order predictions consistently fail at turning points? Why does the same corrective technique keep being reinvented across unrelated fields? The answer lies in a structural principle hidden in plain sight for three centuries. Newton's laws of motion are not merely descriptions of physical matter. They are the necessary mathematical form for any system where multiple influences combine and act on trends rather than levels directly.

What if success, love, discovery — even survival — owe less to control than to coincidence? What if fortune, rather than being the enemy of reason, is its secret partner? In Your Lucky Chance, Boris Kriger dismantles the myth of absolute merit and invites listeners into the hidden architecture of luck — where physics, biology, and human psychology intersect with irony and wonder.

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.

We often strive to reinvent ourselves, our organizations, or our societies—believing that a fresh start is possible if only we try hard enough. Yet experience repeatedly shows that we rarely begin from nothing. Constraints—some visible, many hidden—shape every new beginning.

What if the most essential part of your identity is also its biggest lie? The human self is built entirely from memory, yet memory is the least trustworthy part of the mind. It is not a vault of truth but a restless, selective, and profoundly creative storyteller—a constant editor of our past. We rely on it for meaning, but we can only survive because of its beautiful imperfections. In The Treacherous Memory, philosopher Boris Kriger investigates this defining paradox of the human condition.

The Wave Nature of Love is not a collection of essays, nor a suite of philosophical meditations, nor a ledger of memories—though it contains all three. It is a book of inner weather, written in a voice that refuses to separate thought from feeling, tenderness from severity, or beauty from ruin. Moving between intimate portraits, historical reflections, metaphysical inquiry, and the raw poetry of existence, it traces the shifting tides of a mind that sees the world not in straight lines but in waves.

Consciousness Unmasked is a fearless exploration of the most elusive machinery within us — the restless mind, the hidden subconscious, and the mysterious inner forces that shape our thoughts, dreams, and choices. Rejecting romanticized portraits of the human psyche, the authors examine consciousness as a flawed evolutionary tool: ingenious, yet inconsistent; powerful, yet often beyond our control.

In these words, Paganini is not treated as a historical personality, but as a phenomenon that disrupts the established boundaries between culture and nature. His performance practice is approached not as artistic expression, but as the manifestation of a primordial tension underlying all forms of life. The focus, therefore, is not on the literal musical text — not on notes, technique, or idiom — but on the structures that precede them: the vibrational patterns that act prior to cognition and penetrate beneath the threshold of consciousness.

This book, more or less, demonstrates that time is most likely an illusion, its speed depends on age, and from a physical point of view, time, as such, may not make sense. Why should all this matter to us? Just as people suffered and died, they will continue to suffer and die. I have nothing to say to that. It’s true. And nothing can be done about it.

What is the connection between the expansion of the universe and sadomasochism? Why is everything in the world striving for decay? How can one realize this and effectively resist self-destruction, at least on an individual level? The peculiarity of this audiobook is that the author tries to make broad generalizations, referring to various scientific disciplines. This audiobook discusses self-destruction at all levels, from cosmology to the human psyche, in which self-destruction is considered a deviation from the norm.

Teddybearness is a system of values, ideas, and actions, based on a gentle and benevolent attitude towards everything and everyone, the absence of all anger, hatred, envy, and hostility. Teddybearness ignores the insolubility of the problems of this world and is aimed at creating maximum comfort “here and now”.

This audiobook raises questions why our world is such, and not different, showing a lot of opportunities to create other worlds, in some ways similar and in some things fundamentally different from ours. The audiobook offers the highest moral law of the creators - not to create imperfect worlds, painful for their inhabitants.

The Wisdom of Not Knowing is not a return to ancient philosophy, but a reinvention of it. This book does what neither classical thinkers nor modern theorists ever attempted: it brings Socrates into the twenty-first century and forces him to confront ideas, crises, and forms of consciousness that lie far beyond the horizon of Athens. Its originality lies not in commentary, but in creation — a new architecture of thought built from the friction between worlds that were never meant to meet. Here, dialogue becomes a philosophical instrument rather than a literary device.

Blending philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, and real-life observation, this audiobook examines why emotions frequently dominate decision-making, relationships, and self-perception — and how they can be transformed into clarity, strength, and intentional action. The audiobook challenges the widespread belief that emotions are problems to suppress. Instead, it presents a systematic approach to understanding them as vital sources of information about boundaries, values, fears, and aspirations.

Preparing for the next pandemic means completely rethinking the medical and administrative strategies that defined the response to COVID-19. Boris Kriger, drawing on his experience as the head of a clinical research center, he argues that the world’s obsession with vaccines—while valuable—came at the cost of neglecting the urgent development of drugs that could directly suppress viral replication. Instead of focusing solely on prevention, he insists, we must invest in treatments that can swiftly weaken a virus once it has entered the body, reducing both the severity and duration of illness.

This book offers a rigorous and deliberately restrained examination of one of the most ambitious ideas in contemporary theoretical physics: the holographic principle. Rather than celebrating or rejecting holography, it subjects its claims to disciplined evaluation, asking not whether the mathematics works, but what, if anything, it entitles us to say about reality itself. The analysis proceeds from a simple but often neglected distinction between three levels of theoretical success: mathematical consistency, explanatory power, and ontological entitlement.

Human history has long been told as the story of exceptional beings—heroes, prophets, conquerors, and visionaries—whose will and charisma supposedly move civilizations. Behind this belief lies a continuity stretching from ancient myth and theology to modern politics, economics, and digital culture. Yet the elevation of singular figures has made history itself a form of captivity: collective progress and moral growth remain hostage to the egos of those who claim to embody destiny. Even in an age that calls itself democratic, old hierarchies persist under new disguises.

This book restores the name of Felix Le Dantec—a scientist, philosopher, and heretic of his age—to the living current of thought. At the dawn of the twentieth century, he dared to proclaim that life is not a riddle imposed by spirit upon matter, but that matter itself is spirit—learning, feeling, and recognizing itself through the processes of biology. He saw the organism not as a mechanism steered by circumstance, but as a meaning-making machine: life as an act of self-comprehension, matter awakening to its own awareness.

What if everything long believed about the self was only a comforting illusion? This book invites the listener on a journey across philosophy, science, literature, and lived experience to explore a radical question: What if the self is not a fixed essence, but a universe in continual creation? Drawing on insights from neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, and spiritual traditions, this book unravels the persistent myths of uniqueness, permanence, and control—offering in their place a vision of identity as a dynamic process shaped by memory, relation, and the quiet labor of becoming.
