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...
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...

Intelligence or Chaos
the Atheist Delusion - The scientific proof and rational conclusion that intelligence and not chaos is the driving force behind the universe
2023 || Hardcover || Henk J. Keilman || Ahimsa Publications, UK
Intelligence or Chaos is a direct attack on atheism, based on new scientific facts and insights in the field of physics and cosmology that are revolutionary. These new facts have emerged over the last 30 years and have demonstrated that the universe is driven by information and intelligence, and not by randomness and chaos. In particular the fine-tuning of the cosmological constants in the universe, such as gravity, electromagnetism and the nuclear forces, have mystified scientists and philo...

Debate / Philosophy
How to start debating in the philosophy classroom
2022 || Hardcover || Floris Velema || ISVW Uitgevers || met inkijkexemplaar
From Plato’s dialogues to medieval scholasticism to John Stuart Mill’s defense of free speech, there is an intimate historical relation between debate and philosophy. So why have debate clubs and philosophy classrooms become such separate worlds in contemporary schools?
This book presents a method that combines the argumentative skills of debate education with central concepts in political philosophy, such as freedom, justice and equality. A practical guide for high school teachers that o...
