Paris, Cartierul Latin, într-una din mansardele pamântului: istoria otravita a sfîrsitului nostru de mileniu s-a petrecut în afara acestui spatiu nespus de modest, dar abia aici, sub acoperisul de pe strada Odéon 21, s-a nascut opera care avea sa devina constiinta nefericirii noastre. Autorul ei, un Nietzsche contemporan trecut pe la scoala moralistilor francezi, a fost pe rând considerat nihilistul veacului, the king of pessimists, scepticul de serviciu al unei lumi în declin.

El arte de escuchar el deseo. Como imposible y como quimera, como fin y también como imperativo, la idea de la felicidad nos interpela más que nunca en los tiempos que corren. "¿Cómo ser felices?", esa sentencia que nos sobrevuela como mandato del mundo moderno se impuso para encandilarnos y...

Shiver Point is boring. Nothing interesting ever happens there and there's never anything fun to do. At least that's what Alex has always thought. Until one night, in the dead dark, he spots what looks like a meteorite plummeting into Howlmoor Forest. Intrigued, Alex goes to investigate. But little does he know, four other kids have also spotted the strange streak in the sky: 'troublemaker' Oli, studious Sophia, curious Mo and budding engineer Riley. What they discover is far beyond their wildest dreams - in fact it belongs in their nightmares.

Gabriel Liiceanu: Sa acceptam ca exista gânditori în fata carora te poti "preda", ca gândurile lor, în loc sa fie "digerate pâna la a li se pierde urma", devin totodata, deîndata ce le expui si interpretezi, calea ta privilegiata de acces la lucruri. Nu exista nici o garantie ca numai drumul drept te poate duce la tinta. Exista si ocoluri convenabile. Asa cum exista si exegeze mincinoase. Citezi, sistematizezi, explici. Dar o faci pe fondul unui travesti mental: lasându-l pe celalalt sa vorbeasca, vorbesti si tu odata cu el.

Prima poveste e despre o dragoste târzie la Paris. A doua despre îngerii de lângă noi. În cea de-a treia veți simți un puternic miros de terebentină, iar în a patra, parfum de crini regali. A cincea vă aduce în auz un nume care zgârie și unul care mângâie. Prima poveste are miză și pariază pe nenoroc. A doua cade din fantastic în lumea noastră cea de toate zilele. A treia are realism, râs, nerv. A patra inocență, umor, visare. A cincea, cu ironie, face poezie și economie (politică).

The terror and purges of Stalin's Russia in the 1930s discouraged Soviet officials from leaving documentary records, let alone keeping personal diaries. A remarkable exception is the unique diary assiduously kept by Ivan Maisky, the Soviet ambassador to London between 1932 and 1943. This selection from Maisky's diary grippingly documents Britain's drift to war during the 1930s, appeasement in the Munich era, negotiations leading to the signature of the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact....

In today's hyper-connected society, our attention is perpetually divided by social media, work, news, and daily responsibilities.

Daniels invites you on a transformative journey to regain control of your mental resources, break free from external distractions, and realize your true potential.

How does it feel to hold someone's life in your hands? What is it like to cut into someone else's body? What is it like to stand by, powerless, while someone dies because of the incompetence of your seniors?

Gabriel Weston worked in the big-city hospitals of the 21st century; a woman in a place dominated by Alpha males.

A trăi înseamnă să poți supraviețui strivit între două imagini despre tine: a ta și a celorlalți. "Vieţile noastre, în singurătatea lor, pot fi asemănate, pentru a folosi o vorbă a lui Platon, cu o "panglică de măsurat fără semne pe ea". Am o viaţă. Iată, iau părţi din ea şi, povestindu-le, le pun în vitrină. Scoţându-le în lume, pun semne pe panglica vieţii mele. O fac cu gândul că, astfel "însemnată", viaţa mea ar putea fi folosită ca unitate de măsură. Veţi afla, astfel, doamnelor şi domnilor, dacă viaţa voastră e mai frumoasă sau mai urâtă decât a mea.

Blending history and cutting-edge economic analysis, and writing in lively and jargon-free prose, Saez and Zucman dissect the deliberate choices (and sins of indecision) that have brought us to today: the gradual exemption of capital owners; the surge of a new tax avoidance industry; and the spiral of tax competition among nations. With clarity and concision, they explain how America turned away from the most progressive tax system in history to embrace policies that only serve to compound the wealth of a few.
