The New Leviathans
Thoughts After Liberalism
2023 || Hardcover || John Gray || Veltman Distributie Import Books
'One of the most important thinkers alive' The Times
Ever since its publication in 1651, Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan has unsettled and challenged how we understand the world. Condemned and vilified by each new generation, Hobbes' cold political vision continues to see through any number of political and ethical vanities.
In his wonderfully stimulating book The New Leviathans, John Gray allows us to understand the world of the 2020s with all its contradictions, moral horrors and disappointments t...

Is Free Speech Under Threat?
One big question. Two great answers.
2024 || Hardcover || Charlotte Lydia Riley e.a. || Bodley Head
One big question. Two great answers. In Is Free Speech Under Threat? two leading thinkers tackle the issue at the very heart of the culture wars.
Suzanne Nossel (CEO of PEN America) puts the case that even though there is an important rebalancing of power taking place in society today, rightly giving minority voices the space and prominence they have long been owed, even so the uncompromising intolerance of a left-leaning minority crosses the threshold of an important principle on which free ...
The Internal Black Star
The Complete Philosophy
2022 || Hardcover || Ewell Juliana || Brave New Books
Dear Explorers,
Obstacles, complex conditions, and the behaviour of inadequacy will prevail. Perhaps we may suggest that there are enormous and heavier forces that show in our routine activities, which we call >life.
Frequently, we neglect to seek ourselves, our own understanding, and value ourselves. It is nice to acknowledge that each expression educates another to illustrate themselves and to endure.
You and I can get substantially better by making significant steps and creating an enjoyab...

Abbah Unveiling
99 Reflections by Yoginâm
2024 || Hardcover || Yoginâm || Nâm Publishing
Abbah Unveiling represents a mystical disclosure. It touches a summit of realisation. It can be seen as a natural sequel to the previous book written by Yoginâm, The Book of Nâm. It is also a condensation of another book by Yoginâm called Oh Abbah, Songs for Lovers in which allusions are presented as springboards for transcendental realisation. Abbah Unveiling is like music in the sense that it does not describe anything, but attempts to open in the reader conclusions and realisations that...

Beyond Good and Evil
2024 || Hardcover || Friedrich Nietzsche || Van Ditmar Boeken B.V.
One of the most iconoclastic philosophers of all time, the author dramatically rejected notions of good and evil, truth and God. With wit and subversive energy, he demands that the individual impose their own 'will to power' upon the world. This book demonstrates that the world is steeped in false piety and infected with a 'slave morality'.
Embracing Uncertainty
Navigating the Unknown with Intuition and Action
2023 || Hardcover || Henk De leeuw || Mijnbestseller.nl
We delve into the profound understanding of the law of polarity, which teaches us that where there is a question, there must also be an answer. By embracing the inherent duality of life, we can find solace and direction in times of confusion.
Central to this exploration is the concept of intuition, an inner compass that guides us towards our highest good. We unravel the workings of intuition and offer practical techniques to develop and trust this innate ability, allowing it to illuminate the...
