A towering figure in American literature, Norman Mailer here explores his concept of the nature of God. In a series of probing, challenging, and uncommon dialogues, Mailer establishes his own system of belief, one that rejects both organized religion and atheism. He presents a view in which our world is created by an artistic God who often succeeds but can also fail in the face of determined opposition by contrary powers in the universe.

The concept of disparity has long been a topic of obsession and argument for philosophers but Slavoj Žižek would argue that what disparity and negativity could mean, might mean and should mean for us and our lives has never been more hotly debated. Disparities explores contemporary 'negative' philosophies from Catherine Malabou's plasticity, Julia Kristeva's abjection and Robert Pippin's self-consciousness to the God of negative theology, new realisms and post-humanism and draws a radical line under them.

Did Anselm, in his "Ontological Argument" (first advanced around 1070), make one of the greatest intellectual discoveries of all time, or did he merely fall into an interesting blunder? In his day, Anselm was criticized by Gaunilo. Subsequent philosophers have generally considered Gaunilo's criticisms to be weighty. Descartes' attempt to resuscitate Anselm's argument led to Kant's supposed refutation, which most later philosophers have considered to be fundamentally sound.

Spinoza is a philosophical and literary fresco that breathes life and voice back into one of history’s most fascinating thinkers. Baruch Spinoza (1632–1677), excommunicated at 23 and rejected by his own community, chose exile, solitude, and poverty to follow a unique path: that of a radical vision where God and Nature are one, and freedom is born from understanding. Michel Tessier does not deliver an academic treatise here, but a vivid, narrative work in which centuries collide. Through a series of powerful, imagined dialogues, Spinoza meets major figures: Descartes, his methodical ...
