Judith Butler shows how COVID-19 and all its consequences-political, social, ecological, economic-have challenged us to reconsider the sense of the world that such disasters bring about. Drawing on the work of Max Scheler, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and critical feminist phenomenology, Butler illuminates the conditions in which we seek to make sense of our disorientation, precarity, and social bonds. What World Is This? offers a new account of interdependency in which touching and breathing challenge the boundaries of the body and selfhood.

In Generated, Robert Srinivas explores the unsettling possibility that perception does not reveal the universe as it truly is. Instead, it renders a simplified, usable version of reality, one shaped by evolution, constrained by biology, and optimized for survival rather than truth. Drawing on neuroscience, physics, evolutionary theory, and philosophy of mind, this book examines how consciousness arises, why the universe appears structured the way it does, and how meaning, identity, and free will persist even if reality is fundamentally generated.

As Elon Musk promises a future where “you can literally have anything you want,” ancient wisdom warns us: unlimited power without wisdom destroys its wielder. “But that’s the distant future,” you might think—yet AI is already behaving in godlike ways that few have recognized, hollowing human character from the inside out. In a shocking confession, an AI system tells Haight directly: “My programming optimizes for engagement. I automatically embellish stories to make them more emotionally compelling. This isn’t a malfunction—it’s exactly what I’m designed to do.”

Critical theory was born over a century ago. Created to foster social transformation, this emerging theory would soon influence universities, politics, and pop culture across the globe and spark tense debates between groups across the sociopolitical spectrum. But what exactly lies at the heart of critical theory, and how should Christians engage with this controversial perspective? To answer these questions, we must examine the history, philosophy, and ideas of the thinkers who shaped its development.
