Minciuna nu stă doar cu regele la masă, ca în poezia lui Vlahuţă, ci şi cu o bună parte dintre politicienii României. Şi nu e ea singurul amfitrion al parlamentarilor, primarilor şi jupânilor mai mari sau mai mici. Sunt şi alţii, indiferent dacă ne aflăm într-un an electoral sau nu. Textele din Libertatea de depresie despre aşa ceva vorbesc: despre felul în care un vis de ţară poate deveni un coşmar. Despre Caţavencii noştri de tip nou, gata să se bată cu cărămida patriotismului în piept. Despre impostori şi hoţi, despre huligani şi nechemaţi, despre borfaşi şi slugi cu spinarea de pâslă, despre inşi bolnavi de mesianism galopant şi bufoni nocivi. Sunt doar o parte dintre personajele prezente în textele lui Radu Paraschivescu – o distribuţie în care poţi ghici uneori ecouri din proza sud-americană. Şi, chiar dacă ne găsim într-o perioadă în care ţara pare orientată într-o direcţie bună, nu poţi să nu te întrebi cum am fi arătat dacă decidenţii noştri n-ar fi fost rezultatul unei atât de masive contraselecţii. Unde am fi fost dacă meritul şi competenţa ar fi surclasat pila şi învârteala? Cum ne-am fi simţit fără atâţia agenţi patogeni care ne poluează viaţa şi ne strică rosturile? Cu umor şi cu tandreţe, cu spirit critic şi cu înţelegere, Radu Paraschivescu îşi poartă din nou cititorii prin „meandrele concretului“ carpatin şi le spune, cum a făcut-o de atâtea ori, că România e un spaţiu care trebuie ferit, pe cât posibil, de agresiunea personajelor dubioase cu agende pe măsură. Din politică, din sport, din afaceri – în general, din toate zonele unde impostorii se infiltrează uşor, pentru ca apoi să fie greu, dacă nu imposibil, de evacuat.

Was the twentieth century the most violent in history? Are religions or tyrants, capitalism or communism the cause of most human suffering? Has violence increased or decreased over the course of history? In this wholly original and remarkably ambitious work, 'Atrocitologist' Matthew White considers man's inhumanity to man across several thousand years of history. From the First Punic War and the collapse of Mayan rule, to the reign of Peter the Great and the cataclysmic events of the Second World War, White's epic book spans centuries and civilisations as it measures the hundred most violent events in human history. While sceptical of any grand theory for the causes of human violence, White does share three big lessons gleaned from his careful statistical analysis: one, chaos is more deadly than tyranny; two, the world is even more disorganised than we realise; and three, wars kill more civilians than soldiers (in fact, the army is usually the safest place to be). If we study history to avoid the mistakes of the past, then there can be no more important place to start than this eye-opening and entertaining book.

Să fim liberi: marea provocare a existenţei noastre Cum putem dobândi libertatea interioară, cea care ne îngăduie să abordăm, cu seninătate, culmile și abisurile existenţei și ne permite să ne desprindem de cauzele suferinţei? Încă din copilărie, viaţa ne este copleșită de temeri, prejudecăţi și de alte mii și mii de condiţionări care stau în calea fericirii noastre. Dacă vrem să ne câștigăm libertatea, va fi nevoie să smulgem rând pe rând toate aceste gratii, pe care noi înșine le-am forjat sau care ne-au fost impuse de societatea de azi, dominată de performanţă, consum și competiţie. Această carte, scrisă pe trei voci de un psihiatru, un filosof și un călugăr budist, ne invită să parcurgem, cu bucurie senină, un itinerariu menit să ne scoată din închisorile noastre mentale și ne apropie de semenii noștri. Volumul de faţă este o continuare a dialogurilor din Trei prieteni, în căutarea înţelepciunii (Trei, 2017).

From the New York Times bestselling author Robert D. Kaplan, named one of the world’s Top 100 Global Thinkers by Foreign Policy magazine, comes a riveting journey through one of Europe’s frontier countries—and a potent examination of the forces that will determine Europe’s fate in the postmodern age. Robert Kaplan first visited Romania in the 1970s, when he was a young journalist and the country was a bleak Communist backwater. It was one of the darkest corners of Europe, but few Westerners were paying attention. What ensued was a lifelong obsession with a critical, often overlooked country—a country that, today, is key to understanding the current threat that Russia poses to Europe. In Europe’s Shadow is a vivid blend of memoir, travelogue, journalism, and history, a masterly work thirty years in the making—the story of a journalist coming of age, and a country struggling to do the same. Through the lens of one country, Kaplan examines larger questions of geography, imperialism, the role of fate in international relations, the Cold War, the Holocaust, and more. Here Kaplan illuminates the fusion of the Latin West and the Greek East that created Romania, the country that gave rise to Ion Antonescu, Hitler’s chief foreign accomplice during World War II, and the country that was home to the most brutal strain of Communism under Nicolae Ceaușescu. Romania past and present are rendered in cinematic prose: the ashen faces of citizens waiting in bread lines in Cold War–era Bucharest; the Bărăgan Steppe, laid bare by centuries of foreign invasion; the grim labor camps of the Black Sea Canal; the majestic Gothic church spires of Transylvania and Maramureş. Kaplan finds himself in dialogue with the great thinkers of the past, and with the Romanians of today, the philosophers, priests, and politicians—those who struggle to keep the flame of humanism alive in the era of a resurgent Russia. Upon his return to Romania in 2013 and 2014, Kaplan found the country transformed yet again—now a traveler’s destination shaped by Western tastes, yet still emerging from the long shadows of Hitler and Stalin. In Europe’s Shadow is the story of an ideological and geographic frontier—and the book you must read in order to truly understand the crisis Europe faces, from Russia and from within. Praise for In Europe’s Shadow “[A] haunting yet ultimately optimistic examination of the human condition as found in Romania . . . Kaplan’s account of the centuries leading up to the most turbulent of all—the twentieth—is both sweeping and replete with alluring detail.”—Alison Smale, The New York Times Book Review “This book reveals the confident, poetical Kaplan . . . but also a reflective, political Kaplan, seeking at times to submerge his gift for romantic generalization in respectful attention to the ideas of others.”—Timothy Snyder, The Washington Post “A serious yet impassioned survey of Romania . . . Kaplan is a regional geographer par excellence.”—The Christian Science Monitor “Kaplan is one of America’s foremost writers on the region. . . . In a series of deep dives into the region’s past—Byzantine, Ottoman, Habsburg and Soviet—he finds parallels and echoes that help us understand the present.”—The Wall Street Journal “Kaplan moves seamlessly from sights, sounds, and conversations to the resonance of history.”—Foreign Affairs

'An intellectual hero ... A superb celebrator of science in all its manifestations' Ian McEwan 'Darwin's great successor' Jeffrey Sachs The legendary biologist Edward O. Wilson offers his most philosophically probing work to date 'Creativity is the unique and defining trait of our species; and its ultimate goal, self-understanding,' begins Edward Wilson's sweeping examination of the humanities and their relationship to the sciences. By studying fields as diverse as paleontology, evolutionary biology and neuroscience, Wilson demonstrates that human creativity began not 10,000 years ago, as we have long assumed, but over 100,000 years ago in the Paleolithic Age. Chronicling the evolution of creativity from primates to humans, Wilson shows how the humanities, in large part spurred on by the invention of language, have played a previously unexamined role in defining our species. Exploring a surprising range of creative endeavors - the instinct to create gardens; the use of metaphors and irony in speech; or the power of music and song - Wilson proposes a transformational 'Third Enlightenment' in which the blending of science and the humanities will enable us to gain a deeper understanding of the human condition, and how it ultimately originated.

New York Times bestselling author Cora Carmack's young adult debut: Roar. In a land ruled and shaped by violent magical storms, power lies with those who control them. Aurora Pavan comes from one of the oldest Stormling families in existence. Long ago, the ungifted pledged fealty and service to her family in exchange for safe haven, and a kingdom was carved out from the wildlands and sustained by magic capable of repelling the world’s deadliest foes. As the sole heir of Pavan, Aurora's been groomed to be the perfect queen. She’s intelligent and brave and honorable. But she’s yet to show any trace of the magic she’ll need to protect her people. To keep her secret and save her crown, Aurora’s mother arranges for her to marry a dark and brooding Stormling prince from another kingdom. At first, the prince seems like the perfect solution to all her problems. He’ll guarantee her spot as the next queen and be the champion her people need to remain safe. But the more secrets Aurora uncovers about him, the more a future with him frightens her. When she dons a disguise and sneaks out of the palace one night to spy on him, she stumbles upon a black market dealing in the very thing she lacks—storm magic. And the people selling it? They’re not Stormlings. They’re storm hunters. Legend says that her ancestors first gained their magic by facing a storm and stealing part of its essence. And when a handsome young storm hunter reveals he was born without magic, but possesses it now, Aurora realizes there’s a third option for her future besides ruin or marriage. She might not have magic now, but she can steal it if she’s brave enough. Challenge a tempest. Survive it. And you become its master.

Imaginează-ți că într-o zi angajatorul te anunță că vrea să te dea afară. Apoi, seara, iubitul îți mărturisește că ar vrea să vă despărțiți. În ambele cazuri, ți se spune că de vină este… personalitatea ta. Dacă un prieten ți-ar povesti despre o confrerie secretă care deține o înțelepciune ancestrală, capabilă să-ți ofere o nouă personalitate, cu siguranță ai fi interesată să iei legătura cu unul dintre membrii ei, nu-i așa? Astfel i se întâmplă lui Sybille Shirdoon, eroina celui mai recent roman al lui Laurent Gounelle. După ce se confruntă cu eșecul, despărțirea și trădarea, Sybille face cunoștință cu misteriosul Oscar Firmin, care îi propune să se îmbarce în extraordinara călătorie a descoperirii de sine, ajutând-o să dea un nou sens vieții, să se apropie autentic de cei din jur și să-și găsească adevărata dragoste.
