In The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it. The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history—including the first murder, Cain's killing of his brother, Abel—and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.

Of all the stoic virtues—courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom—wisdom is the most elusive. This is especially apparent in an age where reaction and idle chatter are rewarded, and restraint and thoughtfulness are unfashionable. The great statesman and philosophers of the past would not be fooled, as we are, by headlines or appearances or the primal pull of tribalism. They knew too much of history, of their own flaws, of the need for collaboration to do any of that. That's wisdom—and we need it more than ever.

In Ignorance and Bliss, the acclaimed essayist and historian of ideas Mark Lilla offers an absorbing psychological diagnosis of the human will not to know. With erudition and brio, Lilla ranges from the Book of Genesis and Plato's dialogues to Sufi parables and Sigmund Freud, revealing the paradoxes of hiding truth from ourselves.

Spiritual and community lessons for embracing collective care, co-creating sustainable worlds, and responsibly meeting uncertain futures—a Zen and Indigenous take on building better, more balanced ways of being.

The idea that our homes can communicate professional as well as personal identities may seem as new as the work-from-home revolution. But it was second nature to the ancient Romans, for whom the home was in many ways the center of public and private life. Roman authors saw infinite practical and symbolic value in houses, and they have much to say about them. How to Make a Home presents some of the best Roman writings on houses—from buying and selling to designing and decorating.

In Truth Matters, Cornel West and Robert P. George address a range of social issues on which Americans today are bitterly divided. Their book models robust intellectual engagement and civil discourse as they explore vital questions surrounding the idea of truth and its foundational role in our lives. Along the way, they reflect on social conditions—such as respect for freedom of speech—that must be established and maintained if truth is to be seriously pursued.

In What's Left, Malcolm Harris cuts through the noise and gets real about our remaining options for saving the world. Just as humans have caused climate change, we hold the power to avert a climate apocalypse, but that will only happen through collective political action. Harris outlines the three strategies—progressive, socialist, and revolutionary—that have any chance of succeeding, while also revealing that none of them can succeed on their own.

Send us a textGary Klein, renowned cognitive psychologist and pioneer of the Recognition-Primed Decision Model, takes us deep into the minds of experts operating under the most demanding conditions. Drawing from decades studying firefighters, law enforcement officers, and military personnel, Klein reveals the surprising truth about expertise - it's not about comparing options or following procedures, but rather recognizing patterns developed through years of experience.What makes this conversation exceptional is Klein's ability to demystify the seemingly magical "gut instincts" of experts. He ...

Eskiler, biri hastalanınca “şifayı kapmışsın” der.Onlar, hastalanmayı şifalanmanın başlangıcı olarak görürmüş. Anadolu topraklarındaki eski halk inanışlarına göre hastalık, bedenin kendini arındırma süreci olarak kabul edilirmiş. Yani hastalanmak aynı zamanda bir temizlenmenin, yenilenmenin ve dönüşümün fırsatıymış.Hatta Orta Doğu’daki inanışları biraz daha araştırınca şunu gördüm, bedende olan tepkiyi yalnızca fiziksel bir ifade değil, ruhsal boyutta gerçekleşenlerin ifadesi olarak da görürlermiş. Kişinin ruhsal olarak yaşadığı ...

Nein, das ist nicht Advent und Weihnachten, es ist die Karwoche – die Woche, die mit dem Palmsonntag beginnt und mit dem Ostersonntag endet. Heute, am Kar-Dienstag, denken wir über die Liebe nach, die Liebe, die bis zum äußersten geht. „Niemand hat größere Liebe als der, der sein Leben riskiert für seine Freundinnen und Freunde.“ Das hat Jesus gesagt, und dazu passt folgende Geschichte:„ In jener Zeit ging ein Schriftgelehrter zu Jesus hin und fragte ihn:...

In this Bitcoin Infinity episode, we dive into Joe Bryan’s film "What's The Problem?" and explore how Bitcoin is changing the way the world works. Joe talks about how Bitcoin offers a competitive edge to anyone who adopts it, from individuals to countries.
