Peter Griffin, the cartoon patriarch of Family Guy, is in a theater and says what no one else in the theater dares say: what the hell is this! The audience is frozen. The actors are frozen. He is the only living person in the room. And—strangely—he is closer to what Anton Chekhov actually wanted than any of the reverent strangers around him. This book is about a writer who quietly invented something nobody had named: a literature that works the way real life works. Without resolution. Without verdict. Without the lies of plot.

For half a century, cosmology has relied on two invisible ingredients to explain the universe: dark matter, a substance that has never been detected despite decades of experimental search, and dark energy, a repulsive force whose physical nature remains entirely unknown. Together, they are said to constitute ninety-five percent of the cosmos. The remaining five percent—ordinary atoms, light, everything we have ever touched or measured—is treated as a minor addendum to a universe made mostly of darkness. This textbook presents a different cosmology. It is not speculative.

The iron in your blood was forged in the nuclear furnace of a dying star. The gold in your jewelry was born in the collision of neutron stars so violent it sent ripples through spacetime itself. The carbon in your DNA survived a stellar explosion and a billion-year journey through space before becoming part of you. Born from Catastrophe reveals the extraordinary truth behind these statements: we are not just made of stardust, but of stardust created through the most violent events in the universe.

Modern cities are the most complex and fragile structures ever built. A single power failure can cascade into chaos. A single pandemic can turn density into a death sentence. A single metre of sea-level rise can displace hundreds of millions. But for the first time in ten thousand years, there is an alternative. THE LAST CITY describes a civilisation in which every home generates its own energy, harvests its own water, grows a portion of its own food, recycles its own waste, monitors its own health, and connects to the world by satellite.

In Narcissists from Mars and Venus, Boris Kriger reveals that the devastating cycle of idealization, devaluation, and discard that characterizes narcissistic relationships is not a mystery of individual pathology but an emergent property of a dynamical system — a pattern that arises whenever five structural conditions are met. The same pattern governs thermostats, authoritarian regimes, cults, corporate hierarchies, addiction, and algorithmic platforms. The equations are identical. Only the variable names change.
