A world normally hidden beneath equations and laboratory instruments unfolds here as a living, dynamic foundation of existence. This book reveals how tunneling, coherence, entanglement, and quantum uncertainty shape the deepest processes of biology—from photosynthesis and enzymatic catalysis to genetic variation, neural complexity, and the evolution of life itself.

Rather than rejecting the past, The Hidden Premise invites listeners to look more closely at how our assumptions are formed and how they shape what we take to be meaningful. It offers an accessible entry into one of the major philosophical debates of the last century and encourages a more reflective relationship with tradition, interpretation, and the search for truth.

What if success, love, discovery — even survival — owe less to control than to coincidence? What if fortune, rather than being the enemy of reason, is its secret partner? In Your Lucky Chance, Boris Kriger dismantles the myth of absolute merit and invites listeners into the hidden architecture of luck — where physics, biology, and human psychology intersect with irony and wonder.

The Limit of Complexity is a philosophical investigation into one of the defining conditions of the contemporary world: the moment when complexity, once a source of power and progress, begins to turn against the systems that generate it. Moving across natural systems, economics, technology, politics, ethics, and human cognition, Boris Kriger examines how accumulation, interconnection, and scale quietly transform coherence into fragility. This book does not oppose complexity, nor does it idealize simplicity.

Ce livre n’a pas été écrit pour vous apaiser. Il ne vous offrira ni espoir, ni promesse de progrès, ni cette douce illusion que le projet humain possède encore une noblesse intrinsèque. Vous n’y trouverez pas la consolation de croire que tout arrive pour une raison, ni même l’assurance qu’il existe un sens à notre lutte commune. Au contraire, cet ouvrage s’inscrit pleinement dans la logique des simulacres de Jean Baudrillard : une philosophie qui ne cherche pas à dévoiler une vérité cachée, mais à diagnostiquer l’état de notre réalité contemporaine.

Penseur d'une profonde originalité et d'une difficulté notoire, Martin Heidegger reste l'une des figures les plus controversées du XXe siècle. Son ouvrage monumental Sein und Zeit (Être et temps) a redéfini la question centrale de la philosophie, à savoir ce que signifie « être », tandis que ses écrits ultérieurs ont exploré la technologie, le langage, l'art et la mortalité. Pourtant, ses implications politiques obscures continuent de susciter le malaise, obligeant les lecteurs à se confronter non seulement à la brillance de sa pensée, mais aussi au côté sombre de sa biographie.

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.

Philosophy as Consolation: Boethius and the Art of Inner Freedom explores what it means to live with dignity amid uncertainty, loss, and injustice. Revisiting the timeless wisdom of The Consolation of Philosophy, this work draws it into dialogue with the disquiet of the present—political repression, economic precarity, identity fragmentation, and technological disorientation. Without retreating into nostalgia or false comfort, the book asks how thought can remain steady when the world shifts, and what kind of freedom survives when all else is taken.

Consciousness Unmasked is a fearless exploration of the most elusive machinery within us — the restless mind, the hidden subconscious, and the mysterious inner forces that shape our thoughts, dreams, and choices. Rejecting romanticized portraits of the human psyche, the authors examine consciousness as a flawed evolutionary tool: ingenious, yet inconsistent; powerful, yet often beyond our control.

The Wave Nature of Love is not a collection of essays, nor a suite of philosophical meditations, nor a ledger of memories—though it contains all three. It is a book of inner weather, written in a voice that refuses to separate thought from feeling, tenderness from severity, or beauty from ruin. Moving between intimate portraits, historical reflections, metaphysical inquiry, and the raw poetry of existence, it traces the shifting tides of a mind that sees the world not in straight lines but in waves.

Erasmus of Rotterdam is usually remembered as a gentle humanist, a champion of learning, moderation, and civilized reform. This book proposes a more unsettling and far more compelling portrait. A Spy of Rotterdam: Erasmus Between Wisdom and Folly presents Erasmus not as a harmless moralist or a failed revolutionary, but as a uniquely positioned observer who survived one of Europe’s most violent intellectual ruptures by mastering the art of influence without allegiance.

Blending philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, and real-life observation, this audiobook examines why emotions frequently dominate decision-making, relationships, and self-perception — and how they can be transformed into clarity, strength, and intentional action. The audiobook challenges the widespread belief that emotions are problems to suppress. Instead, it presents a systematic approach to understanding them as vital sources of information about boundaries, values, fears, and aspirations.

Preparing for the next pandemic means completely rethinking the medical and administrative strategies that defined the response to COVID-19. Boris Kriger, drawing on his experience as the head of a clinical research center, he argues that the world’s obsession with vaccines—while valuable—came at the cost of neglecting the urgent development of drugs that could directly suppress viral replication. Instead of focusing solely on prevention, he insists, we must invest in treatments that can swiftly weaken a virus once it has entered the body, reducing both the severity and duration of illness.

What if everything long believed about the self was only a comforting illusion? This book invites the listener on a journey across philosophy, science, literature, and lived experience to explore a radical question: What if the self is not a fixed essence, but a universe in continual creation? Drawing on insights from neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, and spiritual traditions, this book unravels the persistent myths of uniqueness, permanence, and control—offering in their place a vision of identity as a dynamic process shaped by memory, relation, and the quiet labor of becoming.

This book offers a rigorous and deliberately restrained examination of one of the most ambitious ideas in contemporary theoretical physics: the holographic principle. Rather than celebrating or rejecting holography, it subjects its claims to disciplined evaluation, asking not whether the mathematics works, but what, if anything, it entitles us to say about reality itself. The analysis proceeds from a simple but often neglected distinction between three levels of theoretical success: mathematical consistency, explanatory power, and ontological entitlement.

This book restores the name of Felix Le Dantec—a scientist, philosopher, and heretic of his age—to the living current of thought. At the dawn of the twentieth century, he dared to proclaim that life is not a riddle imposed by spirit upon matter, but that matter itself is spirit—learning, feeling, and recognizing itself through the processes of biology. He saw the organism not as a mechanism steered by circumstance, but as a meaning-making machine: life as an act of self-comprehension, matter awakening to its own awareness.

In a world flooded with simplified “guides to Daoism,” this book dares to think. Flowing with the Dao is not another interpretation of Laozi’s verses—it is a living conversation between East and West, between the silent wisdom of the Dao and the analytical rigor of Western philosophy. Here the listener discovers how the Dao can illuminate existentialism, soften Stoicism, balance science with wonder, and transform ethical thought without resorting to mysticism. Each chapter unfolds as a bridge: between intuition and intellect, serenity and action, mystery and method.

Justice today often disguises punishment as fairness, yet leaves both victims and offenders trapped in cycles of pain. This book argues for a radical rethinking: true justice is not about retribution, but about understanding why crimes happen and preventing them from happening again. Through philosophical reflection, psychological insight, and critical analysis of modern courts and prisons, Boris Kriger exposes the failures of the current system and sketch the contours of a new one—justice that heals instead of harms, supports instead of condemns, and restores trust by restoring people.

This book offers a comprehensive philosophical exploration of happiness grounded in the ancient clarity of Epicurus and expanded by the insights of Stoicism, Christian spirituality, and modern psychology. Rather than treating Epicureanism as a historical curiosity, it presents it as a living framework capable of addressing the anxieties of contemporary life—fear, restlessness, overstimulation, and the quiet erosion of meaning.

What should one do with faith when God has ceased to be living and survives only as an idea? What remains for a person when prayer no longer addresses anyone, when the Church feels like an institution, and inner seeking becomes nothing more than emptiness masquerading as depth?
