In The Righteous Mind, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt explores the origins of our divisions and points the way forward to mutual understanding. His starting point is moral intuition - the nearly instantaneous perceptions we all have about other people and the things they do. These intuitions feel like self-evident truths, making us righteously certain that those who see things differently are wrong. Haidt shows us how these intuitions differ across cultures, including the cultures of the political left and right.

Sie halten sich für wissend und klüger als die Mehrheit: die »Aktivisten« der WOKENESS. Ihr Marsch durch die Institutionen verändert die Regeln in Hochschulen, Verwaltung, Medien und Parteien. Im Kampf für immer mehr angebliche Opfergruppen nötigen sie der Mehrheit neue Regeln auf - ohne demokratische Legitimation. Was die WOKEN für eine egalitäre Politik halten, ist eine elitäre. Wer sich wehrt, wird ausgegrenzt und diffamiert. Wohin aber gehen Menschen, wenn sie sich von den Säulen des Staats bevormundet sehen?

Rarely does a week go by without a well-known executive being indicted for engaging in a white-collar crime. Perplexed as to what drives successful, wealthy people to risk it all, Harvard Business School professor Eugene Soltes spent seven years in the company of the men behind the largest corporate crimes in history - from the financial fraudsters of Enron, to the embezzlers at Tyco, to the Ponzi schemers Bernie Madoff and Allen Stanford.

Combining ideas from philosophy, artificial intelligence, and neurobiology, Daniel Dennett leads the listener on a fascinating journey of inquiry, exploring such intriguing possibilities as: Can any of us really know what is going on in someone else's mind? What distinguishes the human mind from the minds of animals, especially those capable of complex behavior? If such animals, for instance, were magically given the power of language, would their communities evolve an intelligence as subtly discriminating as ours?

Many scientists and doctors believe that there is no such thing as the soul. That there is no part of us that persists beyond death. We are not spiritual in any respect. We are made up of cells and tissue, and completely controlled by a material organ in our heads: the brain. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Michael Egnor makes the case—based on 40 years of practice and over 7,000 brain surgeries—that science has gotten it all wrong.

In Changing Minds, Roger Kreuz and Richard Roberts examine how aging affects language - and how language affects aging.
