Download or read book Assholes written by Aaron James and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spirit of the mega-selling On Bullshit, philosopher Aaron James presents a theory of the asshole that is both intellectually provocative and existentially necessary. What does it mean for someone to be an asshole? The answer is not obvious, despite the fact that we are often personally stuck dealing with people for whom there is no better name. Try as we might to avoid them, assholes are found everywhere—at work, at home, on the road, and in the public sphere. Encountering one causes great difficulty and personal strain, especially because we often cannot understand why exactly someone should be acting like that. Asshole management begins with asshole understanding. Much as Machiavelli illuminated political strategy for princes, this book finally gives us the concepts to think or say why assholes disturb us so, and explains why such people seem part of the human social condition, especially in an age of raging narcissism and unbridled capitalism. These concepts are also practically useful, as understanding the asshole we are stuck with helps us think constructively about how to handle problems he (and they are mostly all men) presents. We get a better sense of when the asshole is best resisted, and when he is best ignored—a better sense of what is, and what is not, worth fighting for.

Download or read book KORAN HIT THE GENIUS OF GENTLEMEN written by S F RAHAMAN and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image of the Qur’an, in general, is caught painfully at an ambiguous edge that lies somewhere between misconception and fear. The world is being constantly subjected to compulsive over-feeding on multitude of wrong information about Islam. The outcomes of the campaigns, needless to say, are extremely disturbing and can send a shudder of wide fear through the innocent hearts of Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Revealed for the whole humankind, the Qur’an is highly heralded as the last and final minister in the series of divine guidance. I believe that the Qur’an deserves a premium platform wherein its divine authorship, true flair must be discussed, argued and debated with due cogency. In this book, the spirit of questioning has been honoured and edified as the sublime moral-demand of human beings. Efforts have been made to impart a view-altering experience to readers who are in the search of exploring the insights of the Qur’an, and at the same time looking for disabusing themselves of the influence of wrong information about the Qur’an. The book wishes that the scatter pieces of humanity get joined together and enlivened forever like a perennially flowering tree whose blush brings hope. In it consists the book’s satisfaction.
