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.

Profile-based identity is evident everywhere from pop culture to politics, marketing to morality. This book argues that the profile marks an epochal shift in our concept of identity and demonstrates why that matters. You and Your Profile blends social theory, philosophy, and cultural critique to unfold an exploration of the way we have come to experience the world.

A view into the tumultuous and creative life of Edgar Allan Poe. Today the name Edgar Allan Poe invokes a tragic genius whose mastery of horror seems inexorably tied to his tormented life. But in his own time, Poe was above all a craftsman-an editor and reviewer desperately trying to earn a living by transmuting the wild ephemera of early Victorianism into innovations in science fiction, horror, and detective literature.

In 1980, the iconoclastic economist Julian Simon challenged celebrity biologist Paul Ehrlich to a bet.

Ehrlich, author of the landmark book The Population Bomb, predicted that rising populations would cause overconsumption, resource scarcity, and famine—with apocalyptic consequences for humanity.

Pandora's Lab takes us from opium's heyday as the pain reliever of choice to recognition of opioids as a major cause of death in the United States; from the rise of trans fats as the golden ingredient for tastier, cheaper food to the heart disease epidemic that followed; and from the cries to ban DDT for the sake of the environment to an epidemic-level rise in world malaria.

In 1908, at the age of two, Henry Pu Yi ascended to become the last emperor of the centuries-old Manchu dynasty.

Kierkegaard no fue realmente filósofo en un sentido académico y, sin embargo, produjo lo que mucha gente espera de la filosofía. No escribió acerca del mundo, sino sobre la vida, sobre cómo la vivimos y cómo la elegimos. Su objeto de estudio es el individuo y la existencia del mismo: «el ser existente». Para Kierkegaard, esta entidad puramente subjetiva está más allá del alcance de la razón, la lógica, los sistemas filosóficos, la teología; más allá incluso de las «pretensiones de la psicología».

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.

Aristóteles fue preceptor de Alejandro Magno. La historia no registra detalles de esta relación, pero sabemos que, con el tiempo, Alejandro estuvo a punto de firmar la sentencia de muerte de su maestro, si bien acabó por olvidarse del tema y, en su lugar, se dispuso a invadir la India. De no ser por este golpe de suerte, habríamos perdido al hombre cuya filosofía había de dominar el pensamiento occidental durante cerca de dos milenios.
