Philosophy
Thrasymachus has two over all arguments. The first is that justice is the interest of the stonger; justice is whatever the powerful say it is. The second is more personal: injustice is more profitable than justice (although no one was supposed to use the word profitable.) The idea is that it is better to cheat and get away with it, while doing the right thing puts you at a disadvantage. Here's the question. Is there any truth in what Thrasymachus says?

Often the difference between the truth and our perceptions can completely change the course of events that follow from what they would be if our perceptions were more...

Tony Hsieh doesn’t think so. Hsieh is the CEO of Zappos, the online seller of shoes. Hsieh is a guy who thinks outside of the box. When...

agree or not? What personal capacities should a person develop to be a good leader versus those developed to be a good manager? A person who is a good manager is not necessarily a good leader.
