In The Hemlock Cup, award-winning historian Bettany Hughes brings to vivid life one of the most influential thinkers the world has ever known: Socrates of Athens.

But is IVF truly the gift for infertile couples that it’s perceived to be?

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. En esta obra, Nietzsche cuestiona el origen de nuestros valores morales y nos impulsa a examinar si vivimos bajo principios propios o simplemente heredados.

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.

Reason and Human Ethics argues that a secular, biological, teleological basis of human ethics exists and that reasoning and critical thinking about both ends and means are essential to human ethics.

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 (...

In an era when public discourse is dominated by outrage, virtue signaling, and identity battles, this book steps back to ask a deeper question: What does it truly mean to be good? Drawing on axiological philosophy (the study of value), the author dismantles the illusion that belief, on its own, can make us moral. The book argues that we live in a world where systems have become more important than the people they were designed to serve. Whether ...
