Description:


In this short book Peter Sloterdijk offers a genealogy of the concept of freedom from Ancient Greece to the present day. This genealogy is part of a broader theory of the large political body, according to which Sloterdijk argues that political communities arise in response to a form of anxiety or stress. Through a highly original reading of Rousseau s late Reveries of a Solitary Walker, Sloterdijk shows that, for Rousseau, the modern subject emerges as a subject free of all stress, unburdened by the cares of the world. Most of modern philosophy, and above all German Idealism, is an attempt to reign back Rousseau s useless and anarchical subject and anchor it in the cares of the world, in the task of having to produce both the world and itself. In the light of this highly original account, Sloterdijk develops his own distinctive account of freedom, where freedom is conceptualized as the availability for the improbable.



This important text, in which Sloterdijk develops his account of freedom and the modern subject, will be of great interest to students and scholars in philosophy and the humanities and to anyone interested in contemporary philosophy and critical theory.

Finally, the Law of Attraction Explained Clearly
Over the past 25 years, I’ve explored countless books on energy practices and the laws of vibrational attraction. Yet, if I could go back in time and choose just one to read on this subject, it would undoubtedly be this one. Nowhere else have I seen the principles of the law of attraction explained so completely, clearly, and yet with such elegant simplicity This book was clearly written by someone with a deep understanding of how the law of attraction operates and how our energy functions, both internally and externally. It addresses all the reasons why the law of attraction "don't work" for so many people and clearly explains all the key elements of how it truly works - unlike so many other books that levees out important parts of the puzzle. Even I, who consider myself somewhat of an expert on this topic, learned something new from this book. Allow me a small note of constructive criticism: for some reason, the eBook version doesn’t support text-to-speech via Kindle Assistive Reader, which I found disappointing. Hopefully, this can be resolved in a future update. Beyond this minor issue, the book is excellently written, thoughtfully organized, and, most importantly, filled with invaluable lessons, practical tools, and techniques for raising your vibration and inviting positive synchronicities into your life.

Manifest your desires with this book.
I really enjoyed this book on how to master your energy and learn the law of attraction. I've read several different books on manifesting in the law of attraction and a few things stood out to me in this particular book. The study about the effect of certain emotions on water was really interesting and I've never heard that before. I also thought the section on food and how it can affect your energy was also quite interesting. I will definitely read through the book again and it is a fairly simple read but I did enjoy some of the simple techniques that describe to help to manifest more. If you are looking for a fairly straightforward read on how to attract great things in your life and manifest this is a great book to start with.
