Synopsis

Friedrich Schiller's "Aesthetical and Philosophical Essays" is a profound exploration of the interplay between art, ethics, and human experience. Written during the late 18th century, a time marked by the Enlightenment's fervent appreciation for reason and aesthetics, Schiller'Äôs essays articulate a vision of beauty that transcends mere visual pleasure, intertwining it with moral and philosophical contemplation. His distinctive literary style, characterized by eloquent prose and rigorous argumentation, invites readers to reconsider the role of art in shaping the human spirit and social values. Schiller argues that true aesthetic experience fosters empathy and moral development, positioning art as both a refuge and a catalyst for personal and societal transformation. Friedrich Schiller, a central figure in German literature and philosophy, experienced a tumultuous life shaped by political upheaval and the quest for freedom. His background as a playwright, poet, and philosopher deeply informs his essays, illustrating his commitment to human dignity and the quest for truth. The tensions of his era'Äîa battleground of burgeoning revolutionary thought'Äîgreatly influenced his contemplation of aesthetics as a means of understanding and transcending the human condition. This collection is highly recommended for those interested in the intersections of aesthetics, philosophy, and ethics. Schiller'Äôs insights resonate powerfully today, encouraging readers to engage critically with art's transformative potential. A must-read for scholars, artists, and anyone passionate about the dialogue between beauty and morality.

    The inside story of the creation of Ozempic and its revolutionary impact on public health.A “cure” for obesity has long been the holy grail for the pharmaceutical industry, one that seemed unattainable until recent breakthroughs in type 2 diabetes research led to the development of Ozempic, a weight loss medication that activates a hormone in the stomach called GLP-1, making people feel fuller for longer. The treatment is so effective that it is already disrupting many industries—from healthcare to fast food to fashion—and it has quickly made its creator, Denmark’s Novo Nordisk, the most valuable company in Europe. But the impact of GLP-1s goes far beyond billion-dollar profits; a true long-term cure for obesity could save 40 percent of American adults from dangerous, preventable illnesses. And as more potential benefits emerge, one question looms in the minds of investors, healthcare workers, and politicians: Are these drugs too good to be true?In Off the Scales, Reuters journalist Aimee Donnellan illuminates the history of a medical breakthrough that is poised to change the world, while raising difficult social questions about inequality and morality. Through original reporting and rigorous research, she forecasts the future of GLP-1s and examines what their explosive popularity tells us about our ideals of beauty and the lengths to which people will go in order to become thin.Along the way, Donnellan profiles the scientist whose contributions to the discovery of GLP-1 were overlooked, documents her fight for recognition while her colleagues were thrust into the limelight, and offers new insights into the ways that the food and beauty industries made billions while promoting unhealthy and unrealistic body image standards and accelerating the obesity crisis. She also provides firsthand accounts of several early Ozempic users and the transformative effect the drug has had on their weight loss journeys.Off the Scales is an informative and entertaining study of the unexpected consequences of finally getting what we’ve wanted for so long.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press

    Excerpt:
     
    One essential requirement for a happy society is that the individuals constituting the society must have tranquillity of mind. This tranquillity of mind arises from purity of thought, word, and action, which means the observance of an ethical lifestyle based on the Five Precepts. As human beings we are unique in our ability to see the difference between good and bad. We have the capacity to make moral choices and thereby to influence the pattern of our own lives and that of others. This influence is exerted through our thoughts, speech, and actions. If we can develop inner purity and strength, then we have established the basis on which we can give what is needed by others in all our relationships. It is up to us to create a safe and harmonious society.
