Was ist Klasse? Wie entsteht Ungleichheit? Was sind die Quellen von Statushierarchien und Prestige? Sind reiche Menschen bessere Menschen? Oder schlechtere? Hanno Sauer zeigt in diesem brillanten Hörbuch, was Klassenunterschiede sind, wie sie funktionieren und warum sie so schwer loszuwerden sind. Und wie wir die »Logik sozialer Signale« entschlüsseln können, von denen wir umgeben sind. Dabei wird klar: Soziale Klassenunterschiede und Statushierarchien haben einen viel fundamentaleren Einfluss auf unser Denken, unser Handeln und unsere gesamte Gesellschaft, als wir glauben.

Story
Charlotte is a tale of one city, a meditation and inquiry into the inner life of one Southern metro of 2.6 million. It is also a story of life in cities across America. It is about a profound and prevalent experience of daily life, yet so seldom acknowledged or allowed expression, it has no name. This book calls it Soul, referring to Sense of Place, Home, the universal and innate need of people to form attachment to and shape where they live.

Story
The term gentrification has become a buzzword to describe the changes in urban neighborhoods across the country, but we don’t realize just how threatening it is. It means more than the arrival of trendy shops, much-maligned hipsters, and expensive lattes. The very future of American cities as vibrant, equitable spaces hangs in the balance. A vigorous exposé revealing who holds power in our cities, How to Kill a City uncovers the massive systemic forces behind gentrification in New Orleans, Detroit, San Francisco, and New York.

Story
After decades of debate about global warming, the fact of the climate crisis is finally widely accepted. People at all scales—from the household to the global market—are attempting to govern climate to deal with its causes and impacts. Although the stakes are different now, governing climate is centuries old. In this book, Zeke Baker develops a genealogy of climate science that traces the relationship between those who have created knowledge of the climate and those who have attempted to gain power and govern society, right up to the present, historic moment.

Story
This book explores the ethical, psychological, and existential tensions between the will to live and the desire to let go in extreme conditions of suffering. Drawing on Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy and the concept of inner freedom, it critically examines whether meaning is always possible — and whether insisting on meaning in the face of despair may become a form of cruelty rather than compassion. Through reflections on assisted suicide, biological compulsion, resistance, and the burden of consciousness, the text challenges the sanctity of survival as a universal good.

L'intelligence artificielle peut vous instruire, écrire vos chansons, façonner vos désirs. Elle est brillante. Elle est utile. Elle peut tout "faire"... Sauf respirer. Sauf aimer. Sauf être. Le Souffle de la Machine n'est pas un livre sur la technologie. C'est un livre sur nous. Demain, l'intelligence artificielle permettra à un employé de faire en 10 heures le travail de 40. La vraie question n'est pas technologique, elle est humaine: que ferons-nous de ces 30 heures libérées? Exigerons-nous de cet employé qu'il produise quatre fois plus?
