Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -You are a social animal. This was not optional. You arrived pre-wired to attach to other humans, to be shaped by them, to need them, and to find them absolutely baffling.The Passengers is the third volume of The Humanual, and it is about everyone else. It begins with the original wiring (attachment, and why your earliest relationships still run in the background), moves through the impossible art of communication, the collision of two people who each think the other is the difficult one, the drug called love, the elephant in every room (sex), the first country you were ever a citizen of (your family), the unpaid relationship (friendship), the invisible fences called boundaries, and the cost of caring, which is grief. Then it widens out: the herd and what it does to your judgment, the water of culture you cannot see because you are swimming in it, the predators who exploit social wiring on purpose, and finally the construction of relationships that actually work.Every chapter is fact-checked against current research, honest about what psychology has failed to replicate, and finished with practical scripts, Frequently Panicked Questions, and the myths that have been ruining dinners for generations.Warm, funny, and occasionally uncomfortable in the way that useful things are, The Passengers is for anyone who has ever thought: other people are a lot. They are. Here is how they work. 260 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The hardware came with software. Nobody told you that either.The Operating System is the second volume of The Humanual, and it is about the three pounds of electrified fat that is currently reading this sentence and quietly congratulating itself. It explains what the mind is doing when it feels, remembers, pays attention, wants things, sleeps, tells itself stories, and occasionally crashes. It covers the known bugs (the cognitive biases every human ships with), the unreliable storage (memory is a reconstruction, not a recording), the scarcest resource (attention, and everyone who is trying to buy it), the reward circuit (why the phone is designed the way it is), the ancient code you inherited from ancestors who had excellent reasons to fear the dark, and the narrator in your head who is confident, persuasive, and frequently wrong.Each chapter states plainly what science has settled and what it has not, translates every technical term the moment it appears, and closes with practical tools, Frequently Panicked Questions, and the myths you can now stop believing. The final chapter is a user manual for your own mind, assembled from everything before it.Funny, kind, and unwilling to pretend the mind is simpler than it is, The Operating System is for anyone who has ever wondered why they did that. There is a reason. It is in here. 268 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Volume 3 taught you how to navigate a room full of people. This volume is about the building: who designed it, who profits from the floor plan, and why the fire exits are so hard to find.The Map is the fourth volume of The Humanual, and it makes visible the systems every human lives inside without having chosen them. It explains how tribal instincts get reverse-engineered into political weapons, how power actually operates (and what it does to the brains of people who hold it), what institutions are for and how they get captured, how money works (it is a shared story backed by trust) and how inequality gets manufactured, how the global order came to be shaped the way it is, how the information landscape became a hall of mirrors, what the machine in your pocket is collecting and why, what artificial intelligence is and is not, and how health systems, education systems, and the living planet itself are shaped by every other chapter in the book.It ends with the citizen: given all of this, what can one person actually do The honest answer turns out to be more than you would think and less than the guilt would suggest.Sharp without cynicism and critical without despair, The Map is for anyone who has looked around at the world and asked: wait, we built this On purpose Yes. Here is the blueprint. 290 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -You understand your body, your mind, the people around you, and the systems those people built. One question remains, and it is the one the whole series has been circling since page one: what is any of this for The Compass is the fifth and final volume of The Humanual, and it is the most personal. It asks why a survival machine generates a being that wonders about meaning, then lays out the menu of answers humans have come up with, from the great religious traditions to Stoicism, existentialism, Buddhism, secular humanism, and the honest version of nihilism, treating each with respect and none with deference. It helps you find the values you actually hold rather than the ones you were issued, teaches ethical reasoning without handing down rules, and takes purpose, work, creativity, play, and awe seriously as the parts of a life that make it worth maintaining.Then it turns to the weight: suffering, aging, and the fact that you are going to die, treated not as problems to be solved but as the conditions that make meaning urgent. It closes with the long view, what a life gives back, and a final message from the manual to its reader.Gentler than the earlier volumes but no less funny, The Compass is for anyone who has ever lain awake at 3 a.m. with the big questions. The questions are fine. You are supposed to have them. Here is some company. 248 pp. Englisch.…
