Plato's Meno

Plato

A dialogue between Socrates and Meno probes the subject of ethics. Can goodness be taught? If it can, then we should be able to find teachers capable of instructing others about what is good and bad, right and wrong, or just and unjust. Socrates and Meno are unable to identify teachers of ethics, and we are left wondering how such knowledge could be acquired.
 
To answer that puzzle, Socrates questions one of Meno’s servants in an attempt to show that we know fundamental ideas by recollecting them.

Simply Chekhov

Carol Apollonio

Born in the port city of Taganrog in southern Russia, Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) survived a difficult childhood with an abusive father and put himself through school (while supporting his family), qualifying as a physician in 1884. At the same time he began practicing medicine, he also became celebrated for his short fiction, which redefined the genre with its formal innovations and psychological depth. His first serious play, The Seagull, was booed at its premiere in 1896, but—along with his other plays Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard—it came to be seen as a masterpiece, bringing a new realism to the theater and to acting, which continues to reverberate today. Afflicted with ill health for much of his life, Chekhov died of tuberculosis at the age of 44, prematurely depriving the world of a great writer and a great humanist. 
In Simply Chekhov, Professor Carol Apollonio provides a concise and accessible introduction to Chekhov, both within his time and place (Russia on the eve of revolution) and as a master of world literature. Readers will meet the major figures of Chekhov’s era—as well as his colorful family, lovers, colleagues, and friends—and gain an appreciation for the ways in which this real-life cast of characters are reflected in Chekhov’s stories and plays. 
Drawing on insights from her more than three decades of Chekhov scholarship, Apollonio not only presents strikingly original insights into Chekhov’s major works, but explores the concerns—from the place of humans in the natural world to the threat of homelessness—that made him such a compelling figure and that remain relevant to the crises we face today.

Who Do We Choose to Be? Second...

Margaret J. Wheatley

In a world we cannot recognize, how do we find a way forward? In this world we do not understand, how do we know what to do? When so little is comprehensible, what is meaningful work? What is genuine contribution? 
 
Bestselling author Margaret Wheatley has summoned us to be courageous leaders who strengthen community and rely on fully engaged people since her 1992 classic book, Leadership and the New Science, and eight subsequent books. In response to how quickly society is changing and the exponential increase in leadership challenges, this second edition of her latest bestseller is 80% new material. 
 
How do we see clearly so that we can act wisely? Wheatley brings present reality into clear and troubling focus using multiple lenses of Western and Indigenous sciences, and the historic patterns of collapse in complex civilizations. With gentle but insistent guidance to face reality, she offers us the path and practices to be sane leaders who know how to evoke people's inherent generosity, creativity, and kindness. 
 
Skillfully weaving science, history, exemplars, poetry, and quotes with stories and practices, Wheatley asks us to be Warriors for the Human Spirit, leaders and citizens who stay engaged, choose service over self, stand steadfast in the midst of crises, and offer our reliable presence of compassion and insight no matter what.

Machiavellianism - Manipulative...

Cito Harder

Machiavellianism is a philosophy that prioritizes power, strategy, and manipulation over conventional morality. Rooted in the writings of Niccolò Machiavelli, particularly The Prince, this mindset champions pragmatism and cunning as necessary tools for success. Machiavellianism does not concern itself with what is right or wrong in a moral sense; instead, it focuses on what is effective. Those who embrace this approach believe that power is not given but taken, and maintaining it requires calculated decisions rather than ethical considerations.
At its core, Machiavellianism operates on the assumption that people are driven by self-interest and can be easily influenced, deceived, or controlled. While traditional morality emphasizes honesty, fairness, and compassion, a Machiavellian sees these values as potential weaknesses when navigating competitive environments. Success, according to this philosophy, is reserved for those who can manipulate perceptions, control narratives, and strategically outmaneuver others. This way of thinking is often observed in politics, business, and personal relationships, where the ability to influence others determines one's level of power.
One of the key aspects of Machiavellianism is the belief that the ends justify the means. A leader, politician, or corporate executive following this mindset may employ deceit, flattery, or even betrayal to secure and maintain power. Machiavelli himself argued that rulers must sometimes act immorally for the greater stability of their state. In the modern world, this principle manifests in various ways, from corporate takeovers to political campaigns that use misinformation to sway public opinion.
