Story5
Cynicism is a disease, with a history, symptoms and a cure. Through science and storytelling, Jamil Zaki imparts the secret for beating back cynicism: hopeful scepticism. This approach doesn't mean putting our faith in every politician or influencer. It means thinking critically about people and our problems, while simultaneously acknowledging and encouraging our strengths.

«Cara Liviuccia, non preoccuparti per me. Ho raramente il mal di testa piccolo, mentre quello grande l'ho avuto solo sabato mattina, legato alla cena della notte precedente. Del resto, esiste la grazia di stato di cui sono testimone ormai da tanti anni...». Il mittente di questa lettera del 1960 è Giulio Andreotti e il destinatario è sua moglie Livia.

Drawing on quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, chaos and complexity theory, materials science and more, The Art of Physics reveals the hidden, surprising, and sometimes beautiful ways in which physics can help us to make sense of an unpredictable world. Ultimately, it shows how by embracing the paradoxes and uncertainty at the core of physics, we can unlock a deeper understanding of ourselves and our universe.

Il n'est pas anodin que les grandes figures sociologiques du XXe siècle, Durkheim, Mauss, Lévi-Strauss ou Bourdieu, aient été formées initialement à la philosophie. D'abord timidement, puis farouchement, la sociologie, ou encore l'anthropologie et l'ethnographie, prennent au cours du siècle leur indépendance face à la paternité philosophique pour créer la nouvelle dénomination des sciences sociales.

What if the greatest strength of humanity has never been competition, but kindness? This book reveals how compassion is not a fragile ideal but a force inscribed in our biology, confirmed by psychology, and proven by the resilience of societies that nurture it. From childhood lessons and family models to schools, workplaces, and entire communities, it shows how small daily gestures accumulate into powerful habits that transform both inner life and collective destiny.

In The Leap, bestselling author Ulrich Boser shows how the emerging research on trust can improve our lives, rebuild our economy, and strengthen society. As part of this engaging and deeply reported narrative, Boser visits a radio soap opera in Rwanda that aims to restore the country’s broken trust, profiles the man who brought honesty to one of the most corrupt cities in Latin America, and explains how a college dropout managed to con his way into American high society.
