When an ordinary man with a knack for bad luck, finds himself imprisoned in New Zealand on charges of human smuggling, he discovers that truth and justice are little more than stage props in a political farce. His fellow inmates include tattooed Māori warriors, suspicious Israelis, philosophical Muslims, and a Georgian drug lord with tips on beating the system. Somewhere between the chessboard in the prison yard and the sterile absurdity of the courtroom, Senya realizes he is not just fighting for freedom, but stumbling through a theater of cruelty where the script has already been written.

This book explores the laser’s journey from obscure theoretical roots to its central place in medicine, warfare, communications, and cosmology. Alongside its technical story runs a deeper inquiry: what does this sharpened light reveal about the nature of order, attention, and the human desire for focus amid chaos? What begins as a tool becomes a metaphor, and finally a mirror—reflecting the structure of thought itself.

In Philosophy of Quantum Physics: Making Sense of What Doesn’t Make Sense, Boris Kriger invites the listener on a journey across the frontiers of knowledge — where physics meets metaphysics, and reality itself begins to question its own coherence. From the birth of matter to the architecture of uncertainty, from entanglement to the nature of consciousness, this book explores how our deepest theories of the universe reshape the idea of what it means to be.

This book takes the listener on an extraordinary journey through the invisible architecture of reality — from the quiet pull that keeps our feet on the ground to the roaring gravity wells of black holes and the earliest tremors of spacetime itself. It explores how gravity, more than any other force, reveals the unity of all things — connecting atoms, stars, and even consciousness in one continuous fabric of being.

This book examines the transformation of human intimacy as it evolves alongside shifts in culture, the human body, and technology. It follows the path of desire from the age of silence and repression to the modern world of artificial intelligence and virtual relationships—a journey that moves from secrecy to openness, from shame to understanding, from wild, consuming passion to calm, conscious connection.

What if the greatest danger to humanity is not ignorance, but the illusions of knowledge? In this provocative collection of essays, Boris Kriger unravels the deceits of human thought—its rationalizations, its comforting lies, its masks of philosophy, religion, and economics. From the absurdities of bohemia to the corruption of charity, from the false promises of systems to the fragile brilliance of uncalculated kindness, Tricks of the Mind exposes how easily we mistake coherence for truth, greed for prudence, ritual for spirit.

Why do we create? Why does humanity, confronted with chaos inside and out, insist on painting, writing, inventing, building, dreaming? And could creativity be the one force that makes existence not only bearable—but meaningful? This book is a journey into the heart of chaos and the human spirit’s response to it. It explores creativity not as luxury or pastime, but as our deepest survival tool, our rebellion against absurdity, and our bridge between order and disorder.

A victory so costly it devours the victor. From the weary voice of King Pyrrhus to the ruins of modern empires, the idea of the Pyrrhic victory runs like a fault line through history, politics, and the human heart. This book follows that line—from ancient battlefields to colonial campaigns, from the Cold War to Vietnam, from the struggles of modern geopolitics to the silent wars waged in private lives. It is a journey through victories that turned into defeats, through triumphs that corroded the very hands that seized them.

In a world overflowing with information yet starved for understanding, Prisoners of the Mind invites listeners on a fearless exploration of the hidden structures that shape thought, distort perception, and quietly govern belief. Drawing on philosophy, psychology, cognitive science, and cultural critique, this book dismantles the comforting illusions through which modern life is too often navigated—illusions of control, certainty, merit, and even selfhood.

Ce livre n’a pas été écrit pour vous apaiser. Il ne vous offrira ni espoir, ni promesse de progrès, ni cette douce illusion que le projet humain possède encore une noblesse intrinsèque. Vous n’y trouverez pas la consolation de croire que tout arrive pour une raison, ni même l’assurance qu’il existe un sens à notre lutte commune. Au contraire, cet ouvrage s’inscrit pleinement dans la logique des simulacres de Jean Baudrillard : une philosophie qui ne cherche pas à dévoiler une vérité cachée, mais à diagnostiquer l’état de notre réalité contemporaine.

Unreal Reality: The Paradox of Existence is a lucid and unflinching exploration of reality, illusion, and the ethical demands of being. Blending philosophy, science, and reflective clarity, this book journeys through the shifting ground beneath perception, memory, identity, and knowledge. It challenges the need for certainty, confronts the limits of understanding, and insists that meaning can—and must—be forged even when truth remains out of reach.

This book is a philosophical journey into the heart of uncertainty. From ancient myths of the abyss to modern science, from entropy to fractals, from Michel Serres’s poetics of noise to the digital floods of our age, Pursuing Chaos asks whether knowledge is possible without illusions—and whether truth can survive without rhetoric.

We search for meaning, crave order, and cling to explanations—yet life answers us with silence. In that silence lies the absurd: the fundamental tension between human longing and the world’s indifference. Far from being an error or a failure of reason, absurdity is the very fabric of existence. This book offers not despair, but release. To recognize absurdity is to discover a quiet freedom where the need to justify, to prove, to succeed, or even to “be right” dissolves. Here, guilt loses its authority and purpose its tyranny.

This book offers a radical rethinking of one of modernity’s most mistrusted concepts. Long associated with manipulation, coercion, and failed utopias, social engineering has often meant the sacrifice of individuality for the sake of imagined harmony. But what if its core idea—deliberate design of social life—could be grounded in ethics, humility, and a deep respect for human complexity? Rejecting both the authoritarian logic of the past and the fantasy of pure spontaneity, this work proposes a mature, humane, and sustainable vision of transformation. One that shapes environments, not people.

In a world defined by uncertainty, loss, and relentless change, the human spirit is tested as never before. Desperate Optimism explores the paradox at the heart of endurance: the power to hope, create, and act even when circumstances seem bleak, and outcomes are uncertain. It is neither naïve faith nor passive wishful thinking, but a deliberate, defiant choice to engage fully with life despite its fragility.

This book explores the fundamental concepts of fear and fearlessness as driving forces behind human behavior throughout the ages. It offers a philosophical and psychological examination of these emotions, tracing them from the earliest survival instincts to their lingering influence on modern society. The author considers how fears shape identity, cultural norms, and social structures, while also proposing ways to transcend them through awareness, inner freedom, and a creative approach to life.

A pacifist in a time of drafts, an exile in a time of war, a young man once fled with nothing but a tea tin of memories. From those scraps was born the Plushling Bear—a soft, absurd creature wandering through grotesque landscapes where bottles are empty, folk devour themselves, and the gentle are always hunted. This is no ordinary fable. It is an adolescent tale stitched from childhood images: scraps of paper, torn toys, grandmother’s voice, lemon-juice tears.

“Why People Think I Am a Fool” is not a book of confessions, nor an apology, nor a plea for sympathy. It is a reckoning — with God, with the state, with love, with money, with health, with the very illusions that bind a human life. Boris Kriger writes in a voice that is at once defiant and vulnerable, philosophical and intimate. He does not hide from contradiction; he exposes it. To be called a fool, he argues, is not a disgrace but a condition of honesty. A fool is one who keeps searching, who refuses to freeze his thought into dogma, who dares to say what others dismiss.

Time, it argues, is not a conveyor belt dragging us helplessly toward oblivion but a vast, unmoving structure—something like a cathedral of moments—where nothing ever vanishes. Each moment is not a tick on a clock or a dot on a graph, but its own chamber where past, present, and future sit around the same table, quarreling, laughing, and refusing to leave.

In a house worn thin by time and silence, two quiet creatures—Bear and Hare—awaken not just from sleep, but from the strange dream of being human. With nothing more than a burnt blanket, a heater, a teaspoon cradling the last flicker of a lamp, and a memory of evening rain, they set out across rooftops, fog, and the forgotten corners of Earth. Part fable, part lullaby, Bear and Hare is a tender, quietly surreal tale about love without condition, the fragile magic of domestic moments, and the possibility that even a dream—if held gently—can shape a planet.
