"Nous habitons une planète errante." Saint-Exupéry, qui vient d'être nommé pilote de ligne, découvre, admire, médite notre planète. Assurant désormais le courrier entre Toulouse et Dakar, il hérite d'une vaste responsabilité à l'égard des hommes, mais surtout de lui-même et de son rapport au monde. Tout en goûtant "la pulpe amère des nuits de vol", il apprend à habiter la planète et la condition d'homme, lit son chemin intérieur à travers les astres. En plus du langage universel, il jouit aussi chaque jour de la fraternité qui le lie à ses camarades du ciel.

Humans are master pretenders—we often seem stronger, calmer and more mature than we really are, while the truth is we’re full of doubts and self-criticism that pushes us to borrow reassurance from friends, beliefs from strangers on the internet, or attention that, in the moment, makes us feel successful, but leaves us totally hollow and burnt out. True to You is a relatable self-help guide for listeners who are affected by burnout and want to learn to live less focused on others’ reactions and more confidently by their own principles

Darwin considered humans one part of the web of life, not the apex of a natural hierarchy. Yet today many maintain that we are the most intelligent, virtuous, successful species that ever lived. This flawed thinking enables us to exploit the earth towards our own exclusive ends, throwing us into a perilous planetary imbalance. But is this view and way of life inevitable? The Arrogant Ape shows that human exceptionalism is an ideology that relies more on human culture than our biology, more on delusion and faith than on evidence.

It came as a surprise in 2016 because the sole superpower had fallen asleep at the wheel. But what's really new? Have we entered a new age of vulnerability?
