The Movement: Concluded is a completed anthology of The Movement Series including the works: The Movement: A Children's Story for Grown-ups, The Movement: Revisited, and Edem's Flight. Told through the voice of a paternal narrator, the stories take on a whimsical, magical feel. Well, dear listener, might I once again suggest a warm cup of cocoa, some gooey chocolate chip cookies, and a warm fire?

Henry Thoreau’nun tüketici kültürüne yönelttiği ateşli eleştiriler ve daha basit yaşamayı şairane bir şekilde savunması tam da içinde yaşadığımız aşırı tüketim çağına ithaf edilmiş gibi duruyor. Ne var ki, Thoreau okunması kolay bir yazar değildir. Ağır bir dili vardır fikirlerini de oldukça zorlayıcı, kışkırtıcı bir biçimde ifade eder. Bu nedenle de yazılarına öylesine göz gezdiren bir okur Thoreau’yu okumaktan kolayca vazgeçebilir. Oysa fikirleri kaçırılmayacak kadar değerlidir. Bu kitap, Thoreau’nun gönüllü sadelik felsefesine derin ancak ulaşılabilir bir kaynak işlevi görmektedir.

Told by the narrator in a “sitting around the fireplace enjoying a warm cup of cocoa” sort of way, the listener embarks on a journey through a wondrous land inhabited by wondrous creatures. Yet, the listener soon discovers that the wonder of these creatures is blanketed in a thick comforter of despair brought on by the cruelty of the joke.

Estranho pensar que a filosofia randiana seja praticamente ignorada no Brasil. Talvez a nossa longa tradição estatizante e nosso apego tradicional ao altruísmo explique, mesmo que em parte, tal fenômeno. Rand não é apenas importante para que tenhamos uma nova visão de mundo e de indivíduo. Em terras brasileiras, a sua vida e o seu pensamento são verdadeiramente fundamentais.

Questo libro è per chi si sente fuori posto o, come si dice in greco, atopos. Pare che uno dei primi a essere definito così sia stato Socrate, giudicato troppo strano, a volte anche fastidioso. Dopo di lui, tutti i filosofi vennero considerati atopoi. Le loro vite erano tormentate dalla ricerca di qualcosa che continuava a sfuggire e osservavano il mondo dall'esterno, senza farne mai davvero parte. Chi si sente fuori posto prova ogni giorno il doloroso desiderio di trovare un luogo da chiamare casa e vive la vita col fiato sospeso, sperando di riuscire un giorno a respirare.

На тему любви написаны тысячи книг и сказано такое множество слов, что одному человеку невозможно объять все их количество. Осмыслить ее как целостный духовный феномен, стало возможным благодаря философии. Первые попытки рационального осмысления любви были предприняты в Античности: Сократ считал, что истинная любовь вдохновляет человека на поиск истины, способствует духовному росту и преодолению эгоистических устремлений. Платон первым составил ее классификацию, определив виды.
