Avec le mordant qu'on lui connaît, Jean-Pierre JOSEPH dénonce dans ce livre l'aveuglement volontaire et la soumission aux discours dominants. À travers des récits fictifs et des réflexions incisives, il explore comment les institutions politiques, judiciaires et médicales, en connivence avec les médias et les grandes industries, manipulent et asservissent les citoyens. Il fustige la passivité générale, la croyance aveugle dans les auto-rités et la réticence à remettre en question les vérités officielles, tout en appelant à un éveil des consciences face à la tyrannie moderne et aux manipulations de masse. Dans son précédent livre intitulé Même les beaufs en robe noire dansent avec le diable, il faisait une critique acerbe de la société contemporaine, dénonçant la médiocrité ambiante et les manipulations des élites à travers le personnage archétypal du « beauf », symbole de la conformité et de l'ignorance collective. « L'on pourrait rajouter un élément essentiel : le beauf croit inconditionnellement ce que les autorités, les médias, et « ON », lui ont dit, et refuse de regarder les preuves contraires. Aujourd'hui, il est donc bien présent dans toutes les couches de la société, même parmi les intellectuels. » - Jean-Pierre JOSEPH

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 My life as an FBI Special Agent was perfect. I had the best job in the world, protecting Americans and their way of life from those who would do them harm. I had served as an FBI Agent for seven years and a uniformed policeman for several years before that. #2 I was always prepared to work extra hours if needed. I was an FBI Special Agent, and my career was progressing nicely. I was assigned to the Drug Squad, and I needed to dress to blend in on the street with shoes that allowed me to run if needed. #3 I had to show my FBI credentials to the bored, grumpy security guard before I could enter the FBI parking lot. I had to pass the main conference room, which was full of triangulated photos of President Bill Clinton, Attorney General Janet Reno, and FBI Director Louis Freeh. #4 The Squad members began arriving at the office, and some looked tired, some angry, and others lost in thought. We were a rainbow coalition of black, white, and brown, male and female, young and old, skinny and fat.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I didn't experience a idyllic childhood like most people in small-town America in the 1960s and 1970s. I remember my brother Ronnie, who was paralyzed from the neck down after being attacked in gym class, coming home to us. #2 I have never asked my brother about the day in gym class or what they did to him in the hospital. I see no point in rehashing those painful times. For him, and for us. #3 Grandma Harris was also tough. She never felt sorry for herself, and her faith was a big part of that. She grew up in Louisiana, picking cotton with her mother when she was a little girl. In 1940, a hurricane caused flooding in much of the Southeast, and they had to move to Arkansas. #4 I had a very close-knit community in Hamburg, and I never felt poor. I felt blessed. I was always watched over, and I never got in any sort of trouble.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On October 19, 1899, a seventeen-year-old boy climbed a cherry tree and had an epiphany. He imagined how wonderful it would be to make some device that could travel to Mars. He dedicated his life to the dream of perfecting a rocket that would make this vision a reality. #2 The first pioneer was the Russian rocket scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, who mapped out the theoretical basis for space travel and paved the way for Goddard. Tsiolkovsky lived in total poverty, was a recluse, and scraped by as a schoolteacher. #3 Goddard was a scientist who, in 1926, made history with the first successful launch of a liquid fueled rocket. He developed the basic architecture for all chemical rockets, and his laboratory at Clark College established the basic architecture for all rocket scientists. #4 Goddard was a whipping boy for the media, who did not understand Newton's laws of motion and believed that rockets could not move in the vacuum of outer space. But this law, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, governs space travel.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Secularization has recently accelerated in most countries. It is caused by the fact that, for many centuries, a coherent set of pro-fertility norms evolved in most countries that assigned women the role of producing as many children as possible. These norms are no longer needed for societal survival, and are rapidly giving way to individual-choice norms. #2 The rise of individual-choice norms is not the only factor driving secularization. Reactions against religious fundamentalists' embrace of xenophobic authoritarian politicians, against the Roman Catholic Church's history of covering up child abuse, and against terrorism by religious extremists are also contributing to secularization. #3 The religious markets theory argues that established churches become complacent monopolies, but competition between churches brings high levels of religious participation. The religious individualization thesis argues that people are simply freeing themselves from institutional guidelines and making their own choices, with subjective forms of religion replacing institutionalized ones. #4 The theory of evolutionary modernization states that countries' levels of religiosity reflect their historical heritage. The collapse of a belief system can reduce people's sense of security as much as war or economic hardship does.

La rupe della Zita, La maggiorana, Asilo, Il poema di Corradino e Il duca zoppo: sono queste le cinque suggestive fiabe abruzzesi che Domenico Ciampoli scrisse fra il 1880 e il 1882 e qua raccolte a testimonianza della migliore tradizione folclorica italiana. Le Fiabe abruzzesi sono un interessante sforzo di ricostruzione di una reale cultura popolare (i racconti erano raccolti tutti dalla tradizione orale), inizialmente erano apparse su un quotidiano di Lecce e in un secondo tempo raccolte in volume.
