In this brilliant work, Priya Satia shows how these historians not only interpreted the major political events of their time but also shaped the future that followed.

Robert Pirsig’s book of 1974, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, took the world by storm, selling over five million copies. When asked how he would account for this, Pirsig said that Zen was a “culture-bearing book”; that he just wrote down what he was thinking, and it turned out that everyone else was thinking the same thing. And what they were thinking was that our Western, scientific, rational mindset was making us crazy. In The Crisis of Our Time, Morris Berman argues that the source of this was the loss of the oral-poetic, or sensuous-mythological, tradition, that was ...

Cassique is a time travelling Fixer in AD 2853. It's his job to nip back into the past and fix problems which threaten to wipe out the world of the twenty-ninth century. But the longer Cassique spends in those past times, the more he comes to wonder if the docile, VR-obsessed people of his present would actually benefit from a reset. It's a dangerous thought, because that would mean taking a stand against Father, the world-running super-computer, and Father takes a very dim view of any form of rebellion. When Cassique teams up with a couple of relatively famous figures from the past, they ...

Imagine time as the force driving existence, rather than just a procession of events. How can that concept enhance how we regard science, religion, philosophy, and our daily living?

A Great Silence appears to have taken hold not only in the media, but in a general ...
