In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This captivating and thoughtful book explores the concept of a "house of cards" and how it can represent the fragility of the world around us. Over the centuries, the metaphor of a "house of cards" has been widely used to symbolize the unexpected collapse of grand plans or the sudden collapse of something that looks secure but is not. The author explores how this metaphor can be applied to our current times, arguing that some of our most deeply held beliefs and societal structures may be built on shaky foundations. The book examines the complex relationship between perception and reality, and how our beliefs can shape our experiences. It draws on a range of ideas from philosophy, history, sociology, and psychology to provide a comprehensive understanding of the "house of cards" metaphor and its significance in the contemporary world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
