Hardly a day goes by that we don’t hear about someone committing a violent, reprehensible, even evil, act. And each time it happens, before we know anything about the circumstances, we are already sure of one thing: We are nothing like that perpetrator. But how can we be so sure? After all, we are all human. In Understanding the Dark Side of Human Nature, Professor Daniel Breyer takes us on a fascinating philosophical journey into many of the deepest and darkest questions that have engaged humanity for millennia.

Over the last 22 years, Robert Greene has provided insights into every aspect of being human, whether that be getting what you want, understanding others' motivations, mastering your impulses or recognizing strengths and weaknesses. The Daily Laws distills that wisdom into daily entries.

James Allen helps us open our mind’s eye to the place of insight, so that reality stands revealed; the reality of "things-in-themselves." He shows us the role of heart and mind in achieving a victorious life, and what are the elements, in character and conduct, which go to build up the life of calm strength and superlative victory. A success so invincible and complete that even apparent defeats shine with added victory, and the universe again rejoices in the triumph of good, and hails another conqueror, YOU.
