"The book contains thirty short essays that delve into objects of crucial importance for intellectual, moral, socio-economic, and political life. The writing of the texts aimed not to formulate dogmas, but reflects the intention of a campaign in the continuous effort of the thinking individual to open up familiar horizons."

In his new book, legal and political scientist Dimitris Siatras explores complex concepts and phenomena in a comprehensive and thorough manner. This multi-themed book consists of essays with various aims: philosophical, sociological, political, and anthropological, and their demonstrative discourse is based on both the broad supervision of scientific and philosophical literature and the invocation of the author's everyday experience, a product of acute perception of the complex phenomena he detects.

With dense and precise language, a personal style, well-known also from the genre of the essay that he successfully cultivates, his work constitutes another significant contribution to the rich tradition of Greek essay writing.
