I've published a reflection in the American Philosophical Association Blog on the paradox of philosophy as critical #enlightenment and an exile from #power. In an era of managed #discourse, does #philosophy still have the power to disrupt? Share your thoughts!

I love the back covers of best sellers, full of bombastic testimonials: "greatest book ever (The Sun)". As the first pre-publication #reviews about my book appear, I have the pleasure, me too, to share a few distinguished statements. If that doesn't convince you... #books
