O simples fato de vivermos no século XXI já nos faz beneficiários da ciência e dos seus frutos, mesmo que a gente não se dê conta dessa verdade. Os objetos que nos dão conforto, que nos dão prazer, que nos transportam, que nos emocionam, que nos informam (até este audiolivro) só existem da forma como existem por conta dos conhecimentos científicos. O cidadão que ignora fatos científicos básicos pode se tornar presa fácil de curandeiros e charlatões, gente que mente para os outros e, não raro, para si mesma.

De esos y otros tópicos nos habla en sus libros este polémico pero muy vigente filósofo y sociólogo francés, uno de los intelectuales más relevantes de la Francia contemporánea.

Ma così verrebbe negato tutto quanto Socrate ha costruito nella sua vita, tutto il patrimonio di coerenza e dirittura morale che lo ha sempre contraddistinto e guidato. No, si deve affrontare ciò che è stato deciso secondo la legge, quella legge che è ossatura e anima dell’amata città. A chi piacerebbe una città senza leggi?

If you want to discover the captivating life of Tiberius, then pay attention.... Compared with the preceding rulers, Julius Caesar and Augustus, the name does not ring out with the same fame and pomposity. Shakespeare wrote no plays about Tiberius; his name does not echo in the history books with the same awe-inspiring prominence. Even his successors, Caligula and Nero, are more famous than he was.

Chi è più sapiente? Colui che dice di sapere o colui che sa di non sapere? Su questo bivio del pensiero Socrate ha fondato la sua vita e imposta ora la sua autodifesa: stringente, appassionante, inoppugnabile. La fine è nota. E tuttavia Socrate non perde la sua forza: perché anche la morte può essere un’avventura, di silenzio o di conversazione.
