FAIRACRES PUBLICATIONS 88 In the early days of World War II, a Russian exile in London was asked to talk to Anglican theological students about suffering; this booklet is the text of that talk. Underlying all that Iulia de Beausobre had to say is the assumption that ’something can be made of suffering’, as Patrick Thompson wrote in his Foreword to the original edition. She did not speak from hearsay, having shared personally in the mental and physical suffering of the Russian people in the first half of the twentieth century. She had already described something of that experience in The...

Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) is one of the most underrated authors in history. Philosophically, he is not on the same level as Aristotle, Plato and Socrates, but when it comes to personal development, he is one of the best. Montaigne displayed a remarkable curiosity in his literary work, to which he devoted the last two decades of his life. He researched classical authors, taking copious notes, and seeking to draw conclusions of universal value. His research revolved around a single goal, namely, find recipes for happiness. This book presents Montaigne's life and works, emphasising the ...

La genealogía de la moral de Friedrich Nietzsche no es un libro de autoayuda en el sentido clásico, pero puede convertirse en una poderosa herramienta de transformación personal si se lee con una mirada introspectiva.

Charles Handy is one of the giants of contemporary thought. His books on management – including Understanding Organizations and Gods of Management – have changed the way we view business. His work on broader issues and trends – such as Beyond Certainty and The Second Curve – has changed the way we view society. In his new book, Handy, looking back over a rich and varied life, shares the lessons he has learned along the way. What things really matter? What daily worries should we learn to treat as unimportant? How do we become more accepting of ourselves and of those around us?

With clarity, wit, and no-nonsense, he lays bare how power is hoarded, how truth gets buried, and what honest citizens can do about it.

Con metáforas como el paso del camello al león y luego al niño, Nietzsche traza un camino interior: primero obedecemos, luego nos rebelamos, y finalmente creamos con libertad. Esta evolución es clave para cualquiera que quiera tomar las riendas de su vida. Así habló Zaratustra no es un manual, sino un espejo: desafía, sacude y transforma. En tiempos de ruido superficial, este libro sigue siendo un llamado valiente a vivir desde la verdad personal y la afirmación profunda de la vida.

Chapter 1 (“What Is the Basis of Human Ethics?”) discusses the various theories of the basis of ethics over the millennia. It concludes that ethics is properly founded on a secular, biological, teleological understanding of human nature. Chapter 2 (...

INVESTIGACIÓN SOBRE EL ENTENDIMIENTO HUMANO: Esta investigación desafía las nociones preconcebidas sobre el conocimiento, la causa y efecto, y la existencia de Dios. Hume argumenta que nuestro entendimiento se basa más en la experiencia y la percepción sensorial que en la razón pura. Con su enfoque escéptico y empírico, este trabajo no solo pone en cuestión las bases del pensamiento religioso y filosófico, sino que también establece las bases para la filosofía moderna y la ciencia cognitiva.
