About this listen
En los siglos anteriores a él, la filosofía había sido peligrosa para los filósofos, pero con Friedrich Nietzsche resulta peligrosa para todo el mundo. Nietzsche enloqueció y su locura presagió la demencia colectiva que había de tener consecuencias horrendas en Europa durante la primera mitad del siglo XX. La suya es una filosofía de aforismos y de penetrante visión psicológica, no un sistema, pero es brillante, persuasiva e incisiva como ninguna otra antes o después de él. Su concepto más importante es el de la Voluntad de Poder, en el que vio el impulso básico de todas nuestras acciones; en el cristianismo vio, por contra, una sutil perversión de este concepto, de ahí su famoso pronunciamiento «Dios ha muerto». En Nietzsche en 90 minutos, Paul Strathern presenta un recuento conciso y experto de la vida e ideas de Nietzsche, y explica su influencia en la lucha del hombre por comprender su existencia en el mundo. El audiolibro incluye una selección de escritos de Nietzsche, una breve lista de lecturas sugeridas para aquellos que deseen profundizar en su pensamiento y cronologías que sitúan a Nietzsche en su época y en una sinopsis más amplia de la filosofía.

Story
En vida de JeanPaul Sartre, su filosofía fue bien conocida por estudiantes, intelectuales y revolucionarios, e incluso entre el gran público de todo el mundo. Esta popularidad, sin precedentes para un filósofo, fue debida en parte a sus propias ideas políticas revolucionarias, pero sobre todo se debió a su papel como portavoz del existencialismo en el momento justo en que este conjunto de ideas llenaba el vacío espiritual heredado de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y sus despojos.

Story
El desconstructivismo de Derrida es nada menos que un intento de destruir toda «escritura» demostrando su inevitable falsedad. El escritor escribe con una mano, pero ¿qué hace con la otra? Todo escrito, todo texto, insiste Derrida, contiene su propia agenda escondida, sus propias suposiciones metafísicas. El propio lenguaje del escritor distorsiona inevitablemente lo que piensa y escribe. Se socava así la «verdad» de todo conocimiento; llega el posestructuralismo.

Los conflictos de Agustín de Hipona con el sexo y con una madre dominante, seguidos de una crisis espiritual que le llevó a convertirse al cristianismo –contadas con detalle en sus Confesiones, le condujeron por último a hacer su contribución más importante a la filosofía: la fusión de las doctrinas del cristianismo y del neoplatonismo. Así, no solo proporcionó al cristianismo un fuerte soporte intelectual, sino que lo enlazó con la tradición griega de la filosofía.

Story
Schopenhauer, el «filósofo del pesimismo», ve el mundo y nuestra vida en él como un mal chiste. Pero si bien el mundo es indiferente a nuestro destino, no es su propósito fastidiarnos adrede. La fachada del mundo se apoya en lo que Schopenhauer llama la voluntad universal, ciega y sin propósito. La voluntad nos acarrea toda nuestra miseria y todo nuestro sufrimiento. la única esperanza es la de liberarnos de su poder y de los atavíos superficiales del individualismo y el egoísmo, que están a su merced.

La filosofía de Berkeley niega la existencia de la materia. Según él, no existe el mundo material, solamente la experiencia, de modo que, cuando algo no se ve, es que no existe. Entonces, ¿cómo es que subsiste el mundo? Pues porque lo sustenta la percepción constante de un Dios que todo lo ve. Las ideas de Berkeley parecen llevar el empirismo hasta extremos absurdos, pero ¿acaso no tenemos nosotros que dejar el sentido común y lo obvio a un lado para ir más allá de la pura existencia cotidiana? Paul Strathern expone de manera clara y concisa la vida e ideas de George Berkeley.

Locke ha sido el único gran filósofo en llegar a ministro, a pesar de que su filosofía era revolucionaria y sirvió de inspiración tanto a la Declaración de Independencia de los Estados Unidos como a la Revolución francesa.

Story
In The Quantum Universe, Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw approach the world of quantum mechanics in the same way they did in Why Does E=mc2? and make fundamental scientific principles accessible - and fascinating - to everyone.The subatomic realm has a reputation for weirdness, spawning any number of profound misunderstandings, journeys into Eastern mysticism, and woolly pronouncements on the interconnectedness of all things. Cox and Forshaw's contention? There is no need for quantum mechanics to be viewed this way.

Beginning with opium, the “joy plant,” which has been used for 10,000 years, Thomas Hager tells a captivating story of medicine. His subjects include the largely forgotten female pioneer who introduced smallpox inoculation to Britain, the infamous knockout drops, the first antibiotic, which saved countless lives, the first antipsychotic, which helped empty public mental hospitals, Viagra, statins, and the new frontier of monoclonal antibodies. This is a deep, wide-ranging, and wildly entertaining book.
