  Digital World War: Islamists, Extremists, and the Fight for Cyber Supremacy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min

  The role of social media in the events of the Arab Spring and its aftermath in the Muslim world has stimulated much debate, yet little in the way of useful insight. Now Haroon Ullah, a scholar and diplomat with deep knowledge of politics and societies in the Middle East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, draws the first clear picture of the unprecedented impact of Twitter, Facebook, and other means of online communication on the recent revolutions that blazed across Muslim nations. The author carefully analyzes the growth of social media throughout the Muslim world, tracing how various organizations learned to employ such digital tools to grow networks, recruit volunteers, and disseminate messages. In Egypt, where young people rose against the regime; in Pakistan, where the youth fought against the intelligence and military establishments; and in Syria, where underground Islamists had to switch alliances, digital communications played key roles. Ullah demonstrates how social media have profoundly changed relationships between regimes and voters, though not always for the better. Looking forward he identifies trends across the Muslim world and the implications of these for regional and international politics. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Derek Shetterly.

  Euth Camp , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 206min

  A senior living in the future finds that he is on the wrong side of the law and has become a criminal because of his outdated convictions. His entire mind-set and lifestyle have made him a person of interest to the rulers of the new world in which he lives. Progressively marginalized almost to the point of extinction by new laws and requirements of an all-powerful government, his life is difficult. As he goes about doing what he needs to do to survive, he finds himself instructing and helping many normal everyday people who oppose the state mandate requiring all to be branded with marks on their hands or foreheads. Clinging to an old book, which has long been a capital offense to own or disseminate, he finds that its words give him comfort and understanding. He is eventually arrested and taken to a state-run compound for "rehabilitation". There he discovers the mysterious power that the words of the book have, as he becomes the leader of a prison escape and mass exodus to the mountains. So begins the greatest testing of his faith that he has ever known. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Glyn.

  Proposal for the implementation of native crops from an educational perspective

  In Toca Boyacá, the practice of cultivating ancestral foods such as potatoes, arracacha, ibia, ruba, turnip and pumpkin shows a significant decrease, as well as their daily consumption by the 10,561 inhabitants of the municipality. This lack of food production and consumption, in addition to the lack of efficient policies for the promotion and dissemination of native foods, or the lack of training in topics related to nutrition based on pre-Hispanic foods in educational institutions, lead to a neglect of local traditions and their replacement by foreign practices, a problem combined with the implementation and production of monoculture crops. The research sought to develop pedagogical proposals to encourage research processes from social classes, to revalue traditional knowledge about food, to promote and disseminate the uses and ancestral knowledge of native foods, mainly for their nutritional benefits and their socio-cultural and historical component, thus strengthening the local identity of the inhabitants of Toca.

  Shamati - I Heard , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 750min

  Among all the texts and notes of Rabbi Baruch Shalom Halevi Ashlag (the Rabash), there was one special notebook he always carried. This notebook contained the transcripts of his conversations with his father, Rabbi Yehuda Leib Halevi Ashlag (Baal HaSulam), author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Book of Zohar and of many other works on Kabbalah. Not feeling well on the Jewish New Year in September 1991, the Rabash summoned his prime disciple and personal assistant, Michael Laitman, to his bedside and handed him that notebook. Its cover contained only one word, "shamati (I heard)". As he handed the notebook, he said to Laitman, "Take it and learn from it." The following morning, he perished in his student's arms, leaving him and many of his other disciples without guidance in this world. Committed to Rabash's legacy to disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah, Laitman published the notebook just as it was written, thus retaining the text's transforming powers. Among all the books of Kabbalah, Shamati is a unique and compelling composition whose power persists long after the reading is through.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

  Invasive Diagnostics and Therapy (eBook, PDF)

  The book is an update on contentious or unsettled issues concerning invasive diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in cancer and related disorders, focusing on the surgical approach. Topics include recommendations for the best practice in using the surgery safety checklist, surgical strategies in a variety of thoracic cancers, renal cell carcinoma, tumors of parathyroid glands, mesothelioma, and bariatric surgeries. The focus is on the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of aggressive cancerous entities, choosing the most beneficial modes for optimal outcomes and patient survival. Chapters also address radioimaging and therapy outcomes in different intracranial lesions leading to severe neurological disabilities. The areas of medical practice addressed are still veiled in uncertainty, yet-unresolved pathogenetic background, and have a substantial component of empirical rather than evidence-based clinical approach. Pursuing and sharing new ideas and innovations is essential for improving the management and outcome. The book endeavors to disseminate and deliberate on the latest medical knowledge, studies, and advancements in surgical and diagnostic dealing with cancer. The book is addressed to physicians and surgeons, and all allied health care professionals engaged in patient care and therapy.
