What if the most essential part of your identity is also its biggest lie? The human self is built entirely from memory, yet memory is the least trustworthy part of the mind. It is not a vault of truth but a restless, selective, and profoundly creative storyteller—a constant editor of our past. We rely on it for meaning, but we can only survive because of its beautiful imperfections. In The Treacherous Memory, philosopher Boris Kriger investigates this defining paradox of the human condition.

This book invites you on a journey through the most misunderstood concept in all of science — the vacuum. From the earliest philosophers terrified of emptiness to the modern physicists who discovered that “nothing” is a swirling ocean of energy and possibility, this is the story of how the void became the foundation of everything. We begin with the ancient debates about ether and the first laboratory vacuums of the Renaissance, then move through Einstein’s curved spacetime, quantum field theory’s restless vacuum, and the mysterious Higgs field that gives matter its mass.

The Last Straw is not just a story of an educator; it’s the story of anyone who has ever felt unseen while giving their all. It’s about the quiet heroism of showing up anyway, the pain of ambition smothered by bureaucracy, and the haunting question: what happens when the system breaks the very people who are trying to save it?

The Wisdom of Not Knowing is not a return to ancient philosophy, but a reinvention of it. This book does what neither classical thinkers nor modern theorists ever attempted: it brings Socrates into the twenty-first century and forces him to confront ideas, crises, and forms of consciousness that lie far beyond the horizon of Athens. Its originality lies not in commentary, but in creation — a new architecture of thought built from the friction between worlds that were never meant to meet. Here, dialogue becomes a philosophical instrument rather than a literary device.

The vault was deemed impenetrable—until it wasn’t. On a quiet weekend in February 2003, a crew of highly skilled thieves pulled off the largest diamond heist in history. Located in Antwerp, Belgium—the epicenter of the world’s diamond trade—the target was a vault protected by motion detectors, seismic sensors, infrared heat detectors, and over a dozen layers of physical security. Still, the thieves broke in, stole more than $100 million in diamonds, gold, and jewels, and walked away clean—at least for a while. In The Antwerp Diamond Heist: The Perfect Crime (2003), true crime author James G.

For centuries, the patent has stood as a symbol of invention—a mark of genius, a reward for creativity, a promise that innovation would be protected and shared. But behind this polished image lies a more tangled reality. Patents today are wielded less as shields and more as weapons. They grant monopolies over life-saving drugs, obstruct progress in software and biotechnology, and often reward delay, secrecy, and litigation over actual discovery. In this unflinching exploration, the author traces the journey of the patent system from its noble origins to its increasingly distorted present.
