    A magisterial, riveting movement history of Los Angeles in the '60s.Los Angeles in the '60s was a hotbed of political and social upheaval. The city was a launchpad for Black Power - where Malcolm X and Angela Davis first came to prominence and the Watts uprising shook the nation. The city was home to the Chicano Blowouts and Chicano Moratorium, as well as being the birthplace of “Asian American” as a political identity. It was a locus of the antiwar movement, gay liberation movement, and women’s movement, and, of course, the capital of California counterculture.Mike Davis and Jon Wiener provide the first comprehensive movement history of LA in the '60s, drawing on extensive archival research and dozens of interviews with principal figures, as well as the authors’ storied personal histories as activists. Following on from Davis’ award-winning LA history, City of Quartz, Set the Night on Fire is a historical tour de force, delivered in scintillating and fiercely beautiful prose.  ungekürzt.

    From New York Times and USA Today best seller Vi Keeland comes a steamy new romance novel. The rules: No dating. No sex outside of the game. No disclosing the terms of the contract. Rules were made to be broken, right? Eight weeks ago I signed a contract. It seemed like a good idea at the time: a handsome bachelor, luxury accommodations, and a chance to win a prize my family desperately needed. There were some rules, though - lots of them actually. I had to follow the script and avoid dating, sex, or disclosing the terms of the deal. After my self-imposed moratorium on men last year, it wouldn't be hard to live up to my end of the bargain...or so I thought. Then I realized the deal I'd made was with the devil...and I was in love with his dirty-talking brother. Author's note - Throb is a full-length standalone audiobook. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for listeners under the age of 18. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sebastian York, Molly Glenmore.

    A trailblazing biologist grapples with her role in the biggest scientific discovery of our era: a cheap, easy way of rewriting genetic code, with nearly limitless promise and peril. Not since the atomic bomb has a technology so alarmed its inventors that they warned the world about its use. Not, that is, until the spring of 2015, when biologist Jennifer Doudna called for a worldwide moratorium on the use of the new gene-editing tool CRISPR - a revolutionary new technology that she helped create - to make heritable changes in human embryos. The cheapest, simplest, most effective way of manipulating DNA ever known, CRISPR may well give us the cure to HIV, genetic diseases, and some cancers and will help address the world's hunger crisis. Yet even the tiniest changes to DNA could have myriad unforeseeable consequences - to say nothing of the ethical and societal repercussions of intentionally mutating embryos to create "better" humans. Writing with fellow researcher Samuel Sternberg, Doudna shares the thrilling story of her discovery and passionately argues that enormous responsibility comes with the ability to rewrite the code of life. With CRISPR, she shows, we have effectively taken control of evolution. What will we do with this unfathomable power? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Bennett.

    A crush is just a fantasy. The real thing packs some serious heat. When Cynthia Donnelly lays eyes on her high school crush at her brother's wedding rehearsal, she regrets her self-imposed one-year moratorium on dating. If possible, he's even hotter now than when they were teens. Back in school, Shane made a point to ignore his best friend's cute, sassy little sister. Now that she's grown into an incredibly sexy woman full of Irish spunk, resisting her is out of the question. Besides, in his book all "hands off" rules have expired. One sizzling night together should have been enough. Instead the heat rises, tempting Cyn to take a chance on a long-distance relationship and making Shane consider pulling up stakes and moving back to LA. Cyn's recently dumped ex, however, has other ideas. His quest to get her back escalates into violence, shattering Cyn's faith in herself and in anyone of the male persuasion - and leaving Shane with his work cut out for him to repair the damage or lose his shot at a once-in-a-lifetime love. Warning: This book contains a physical assault. Buckle up for a bumpy emotional journey with the characters as they fall apart and then slowly find their way to healing and to each other. You might get angry or tearful along the way, you may even get frustrated, but as with any good love story, it'll be worth it in the end. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mia Madison.

    China’s meteoric rise to economic powerhouse might be charted with dams. Every river in the country has been tapped to power exploding cities and factories - every river but one. Running through one of the richest natural areas in the world, the Nujiang’s raging waters were on the verge of being dammed when a 2004 government moratorium halted construction. Might the Chinese dragon bow to the "Angry River"? Would Beijing put local people and their land ahead of power and profit? Could this remote region actually become a model for sustainable growth? Ed Grumbine traveled to the far corners of China’s Yunnan province to find out. He was driven by a single question: could this last fragment of wild nature withstand China’s unrelenting development? But as he hiked through deep-cut emerald mountains, backcountry villages, and burgeoning tourist towns, talking with trekking guides, schoolchildren, and rural farmers, he discovered that the problem wasn’t as simple as growth versus conservation. In its struggle to "build a well-off society in an all-round way", Beijing juggles a host of competing priorities: health care for impoverished villagers; habitat for threatened tigers; cars for a growing middle class; clean air for all citizens; energy to power new cities; rubber for the global marketplace. Where the Dragon Meets the Angry River is an incisive look at the possible fates of China and the planet. Will the Angry River continue to flow? Will Tibetan girls from subsistence farming families learn to read and write? Can China and the United States come together to lead action on climate change? Far-reaching in its history and scope, this unique book shows us the real-world consequences of conservation and development decisions now being made in Beijing and beyond. ungekürzt.

    Seit mehr als 30 Jahren korrespondiert Ursula Corbin mit Menschen, die in einem amerikanischen Gefängnis auf ihre Hinrichtung warteten. In diesem Buch erzählt sie die Geschichten von Clifford, Steven, Freddie und Lee; sie berichtet, wie das amerikanische Justizsystem funktioniert und von Menschen wie Mrs. Wilcox, die sich um diese Menschen kümmert, oder den Journalisten von Radio KDOL 91, die die Mauern des Todestrakts durchbrechen. Sie lässt Andy, Pablo und Ramon zu Wort kommen. Und sie zeigt auf, warum der unschuldig verurteilte Levi vermutlich noch Jahre auf seine Freilassung warten muss, obwohl der wahre Täter inzwischen gefasst wurde.Die Anwendung der Todesstrafe blickt in den USA auf eine lange Geschichte zurück. Die ersten englischen Siedler brachten die Gesetze der britischen Kronkolonie mit und wendeten diese auch an: Die erste bekannte Hinrichtung war 1608 die von Kapitän George Kendall, wegen Spionage für Spanien; die erste Frau wurde 1632 hingerichtet.Wer einen Menschen tötet, der soll dafür mit seinem Leben bezahlen. Auge um Auge, ein Leben für ein Leben. Folgt man dieser Logik, müsste man auch denjenigen töten, der denjenigen tötet, der getötet hat - das Töten würde also niemals aufhören! Oder, wie Ghandi es sagte: »An eye for an eye - makes the whole world blind ...«In den USA wird die Todesstrafe grundsätzlich bei Tötungsdelikten verhängt, die Gesetzgebung variiert aber von Staat zu Staat. Einige Bundesstaaten bestrafen zusätzlich zu Mord auch Raub mit Todesfolge, Mithilfe bei Mord, Auftragsmord, Flugzeugentführung, Terrorismus und schweren Kindesmissbrauch mit dem Tode. Von den 50 amerikanischen Bundesstaaten haben 20 die Todesstrafe nach 1976 gar nicht mehr eingeführt oder sie inzwischen wieder abgeschafft. 30 Staaten aber halten nach wie vor daran fest. Allerdings werden in einigen Staaten die Todesurteile kaum mehr vollstreckt, und in drei Staaten sprachen die Gouverneure ein Moratorium aus, d.h., die Vollstreckung wurde auf unbestimmte Zeit eingefroren. Noch spricht sich die Mehrheit der Amerikaner (60 %) für die Todesstrafe aus - aber die Zahl der Befürworter sinkt Jahr für Jahr.
