  What if the better man is the one who knows he’s doing wrong—and does it anyway? 
  In Hippias Minor, Plato stages one of his most paradoxical and unsettling dialogues. Socrates questions whether a person who lies intentionally is actually better than someone who lies out of ignorance. The result is a sharp philosophical exchange that challenges our most basic ideas of morality and virtue. 
  This modern translation keeps Plato’s wit and depth intact while making the argument accessible and compelling for today’s listener. 
  What you'll discover inside: 
  •	A Bold Ethical Challenge – Socrates questions whether intentional wrongdoing shows greater intellect 
  •	Plato’s Paradox on Virtue – Explore the tension between knowledge and morality 
  •	A Lively Clash Between Sophist and Philosopher – Homer, Achilles, and deception take center stage 
  •	A Contemporary Translation for Clear Insight – Ideal for readers exploring deep ethical questions 
  Can a knowing liar be morally superior to an honest fool? Discover the argument that still unsettles philosophers today.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "Redshirts" by John Scalzi is a science fiction novel that uses metafiction to explore the lives of the crew aboard the Intrepid, the flagship of the Universal Union. The ensigns, particularly those in the security division, notice their missions often involve dangerous and absurd situations with a high mortality rate. They come to believe that they are characters in a low-budget science fiction television show, whose writers prioritize exciting and dramatic scenarios over the safety of the characters. Determined to break free from this deadly narrative, they embark on a quest to confront their creators in Hollywood. The novel is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between fiction and reality, the power of narrative, and the ethical considerations of those who control it.

  Why Psychosis Is Not So Crazy -...

  An expert's guide to humanizing psychosis through communication offers key insights for family and friends to support loved ones during mental health crises. 
   
   
   
  Are we all a little crazy? Roughly fifteen percent of the population will have a psychotic experience, in which they lose contact with reality. Yet we often struggle to understand and talk about psychosis. Interactions between people build on the stories they tell each other—stories about the past, about who they are or what they want. In psychosis we can no longer rely on these stories, this shared language. So how should we communicate with someone experiencing reality in a radically different way than we are? 
   
   
   
  Drawing on his work in psychoanalysis, Stijn Vanheule seeks to answer this question, which carries significant implications for mental health as a whole. With a combination of theory from Freud to Lacan, present-day research, and compelling examples from his own patients and well-known figures such as director David Lynch and artist Yayoi Kusama, he explores psychosis in an engaging way that can benefit those suffering from it as well as the people who care for and interact with them.
