From the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power comes the definitive new book on decoding the behavior of the people around you Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense.

A story for children of all ages ...A plucky girl. An enormous tree. A tight-knit community of animals with legs, wings, fins, exoskeletons, tails, and loud voices, living off nature's bounty. This had all the trappings of a treasured children's bedtime story. But even on the first page-well, actually, on page 'fish'-there were signs of discord, of humans and nature at odds.There was no script for what happened next. Not even proper page numbers. What went wrong?? Some say it was the girl. Others point fingers, fins, wings, tails, trunks, hooves and antennae at the author and illustrator. The Tree remains silent on the subject. But even The Tree's grand silence seems to echo what all parties involved appear to agree on-the timeless power of one universal force to unite all living things, predator, prey, and protagonist alike, despite their differences, and bestow-or impose-upon them a sense of common direction-gravity.The tree in this book is full of sass, animals with attitude, lots of fruit, and a spry girl who has not endeared herself to the Tree Community, and who's bound and determined to climb, swing, and ruffle all manner of feathers and leaves to reach the one fruit she really wants. The illustrations are relentless and captivating, the story line anything but predictable. These first-time collaborators have created a book that will leave the reader, child and adult alike, wondering what just happened. But in a good way. Only after the tenth reading will the full gravity of the illustrator's warped, er, unique, vision sink in. The Tree, the animals, most of the ants, and Mother Nature will weather the girl's reckless rampage. And the laws of physics will return unfazed from their literary nature walk. Any resemblance of the girl or non-human characters to real-life persons, animals, plants or dental hygienists is strictly . . . coincidental.May your bedtimes be blessed with stories and memories.

'Required reading for anyone remotely curious about how they came to be remotely curious' Observer 'Enthralling' Spectator What is human consciousness and how is it possible? These questions fascinate thinking people from poets and painters to physicists, psychologists, and philosophers. This is Daniel C. Dennett's brilliant answer, extending perspectives from his earlier work in surprising directions, exploring the deep interactions of evolution, brains and human culture. Part philosophical whodunnit, part bold scientific conjecture, this landmark work enlarges themes that have sustained Dennett's career at the forefront of philosophical thought. In his inimitable style, laced with wit and thought experiments, Dennett shows how culture enables reflection by installing a profusion of thinking tools, or memes, in our brains, and how language turbocharges this process. The result: a mind that can comprehend the questions it poses, has emerged from a process of cultural evolution. An agenda-setting book for a new generation of philosophers and thinkers, From Bacteria to Bach and Back is essential for anyone who hopes to understand human creativity in all its applications.

Surviving in Two Worlds brings together the voices of twenty-six Native American leaders. The interviewees come from a variety of tribal backgrounds and include such national figures as Oren Lyons, Arvol Looking Horse, John Echohawk, William Demmert, Clifford Trafzer, Greg Sarris, and Roxanne Swentzell. Their interviews are divided into five sections, grouped around the themes of tradition, history and politics, healing, education, and culture. They take readers into their lives, their dreams and fears, their philosophies and experiences, and show what they are doing to assure the survival of their peoples and cultures, as well as the earth as a whole. Their analyses of the past and present, and especially their counsels for the future, are timely and urgent.

“Nature, thou art my goddess”—Edmund’s bold assertion in King Lear could easily inspire and, at the same time, function as a lamentation of the inadequate respect of nature in culture. In this volume, international experts provide multidisciplinary exploration of the insubordinate representations of nature in modern and contemporary literature and art. The work foregrounds the need to reassess how nature is already, and has been for a while, striking back against human domination. From the perspective of literary studies, art, history, media studies, ethics and philosophy, and ethnology and anthropology, Avenging Nature highlights the need of assessing insurgent discourses that—converging with counter-discourses of race, gender or class—realize the empowerment of nature from its subaltern position. Acknowledging the argument that cultural representations of nature establish a relationship of domination and exploitation of human discourse over nonhuman reality and that, in consequence, our regard for nature as humanist critics is instrumental and anthropocentric, the present volume advocates for the view that the time has come to finally perceive nature’s vengeance and to critically probe into nature’s ongoing revenge against the exploitation of culture.
