"El hombre ha nacido libre, y sin embargo, vive en todas partes entre cadenas." Estas son las famosas palabras de apertura de un libro que no ha dejado de suscitar debates desde su primera publicación en 1762. Rousseau desaprueba que algunos hombre se sientan con el derecho natural de ejercer autoridad sobre otros, y defiende un pacto o "contrato social", que debería existir y ser la fuente del poder soberano.

Vividly written, The Infidel and the Professor is a compelling account of a great friendship of two towering Enlightenment thinkers that had great consequences for modern thought. David Hume is widely regarded as the most important philosopher ever to write in English, but during his lifetime, he was attacked as "the Great Infidel" for his skeptical religious views and deemed unfit to teach the young.

Money is the most successful hallucination in human history. We eat it, breathe it, kill for it, and die without it—yet no one alive can say with certainty what it actually is. In The Invisible Leash, Boris Kriger pulls at the collar that economics has fastened around our necks and asks the questions polite society would rather avoid. Were we ever truly free before we invented currency? Is Adam Smith's "invisible hand" guiding us toward prosperity—or pushing us off a cliff?

President Trump repeatedly declared that under his leadership the United States had finally become a great nation—free and democratic—while before him everything was in terrible shape. Yet his successor, President Biden, said exactly the same thing, only in the opposite sense.

You woke up this morning and before your feet hit the floor, fourteen emergencies had already entered your brain through a phone screen. Wars you can't stop. Scandals you didn't cause. Debates nobody asked you to join. You're not lazy. You're not disconnected. You're drowning in other people's urgency and you've forgotten what your own voice sounds like.

Sarà anche invecchiata e a corto di risorse, ma è lì che ogni mattina nove milioni di bambini, ragazzi e adulti dai 3 ai 65 anni si danno appuntamento per «sfregare i loro cervelli l'uno contro l'altro» in modo da imparare ogni volta qualcosa di nuovo. Certo, se la giudichiamo con il metro dei test Invalsi e delle altre rilevazioni internazionali c'è ancora molta strada da fare, ma resta più che competitiva con il sistema privato, che in altri Paesi invece ha preso il sopravvento.
