Todd blasts in from the kitchen with a daiquiri in hand. He sets the drink on the table and two things happen simultaneously; Todd jumps onto Bill’s knee and holds out his hand for his twenty bucks. Charles jumps up on the table and buries his beak in Bill’s daiquiri. Every time Bill tries to take a drink, the dog growls and stiffens its legs. If Bill pulls on the glass, the dog’s growl goes up in pitch. If he stops, the pitch goes down. After a bit of practice, Bill succeeds in playing ‘Jingle Bells’ on the furious dog.

Three hundred years ago, Leibniz proposed that our world is the "best of all possible worlds." Voltaire turned this idea into a joke. Philosophy moved on. The insight was lost. Until now.

On a trip to El Salvador in 1986, in the middle of that nation’s civil war, David K. Bernard remarked that “if the Howells could have faith to live there all year, then I could have faith to visit for one week.” That mind-set of quiet, unwavering faith despite adversity is a chief characteristic of Bernard’s missionary travels.

This little book discusses paths to address environmental conflicts based on a restorative justice perspective of imagining, practicing, and living justice. It proposes an approach that understands the relationship between humankind and environment beyond the narrow conception of homo economicus, considering the human beings in their social, political, economic, historic, spiritual, cognitive, emotional, aesthetic, and ecological dimensions, as well as in their connection with nature and non-human entities.

The world has witnessed almost everything: cannibalism born of famine, slavery normalized by law, genocide industrialized and justified, the Holocaust carried out in the name of order and purity. We comforted ourselves with the belief that these horrors belonged to the past, that humanity had learned its final lessons. Yet there was one thing history had not fully rehearsed: the systematic persecution of migrants as a global norm. This book argues that we are now living through precisely that moment.

In 1978, Philip Parker started his decades-long career as a prison guard at the Kentucky State Penitentiary, a place known as "The Castle" for its medieval look. On his first day, a mass escape set the tone for the dangerous and intense journey ahead. Over the years, Parker faced numerous challenges, from federal court allegations to life-threatening situations, including a dramatic hostage crisis with a notorious inmate.

Human history has long been told as the story of exceptional beings—heroes, prophets, conquerors, and visionaries—whose will and charisma supposedly move civilizations. Behind this belief lies a continuity stretching from ancient myth and theology to modern politics, economics, and digital culture. Yet the elevation of singular figures has made history itself a form of captivity: collective progress and moral growth remain hostage to the egos of those who claim to embody destiny. Even in an age that calls itself democratic, old hierarchies persist under new disguises.

This audiobook explores metaphor not as an ornament of language but as the fundamental mechanism of human cognition. It argues that every act of understanding—scientific, poetic, or everyday—is rooted in the transfer of structure from one experiential domain to another. Metaphor is presented as the mind’s first technology, a generative tool through which complexity is compressed into meaningful form. Far from being a deviation from literal speech, it is shown to be the very fabric of thought itself, underlying logic, mathematics, and the formation of conceptual categories.
