    Germany Travel Guide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 40min
    The largest country in Central Europe and most populous EU state is Germany. It's bordered to the east by the Czech Republic and Poland, to the north by Denmark, to the west by Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and France, and to the south by Austria and Switzerland. Germany is subdivided into 16 politically powerful states that sometimes correspond to historic regions predating a unified German state, while they sometimes randomly throw vastly different peoples into the same state while separating them from their more similar kin across state lines. Germany has historically been and still is politically, economically, and culturally influential and the largest EU member state by population and economic output. Known around the world for German engineering as well as world-leading banking and insurance companies, it is equally admired by visitors for its old-world charm and Gemütlichkeit (cosiness). Discard any perceptions of Germany as simply homogeneous, and a country of surprising regional diversity awaits. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jason Zenobia.

    The Loveliest Abyss in the Universe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 75min
    The Portal is unnatural, a fissure in spacetime torn between sharp rings. The Portal shows you images that haunt your waking moments as well as your dreams. The Portal wants you to gaze within, but when you do, you will never be the same. When the Order of Nirangi opens a portal into a hellish realm, they tempt far more than fate. Hidden deep underground, a ringed machine tears into the fabric of spacetime itself, showing the Nirangi scientists a glimpse into a realm covered in roiling lava lakes and volcanoes, leaving them petrified and humbled. Only Madam Viragat, the project overseer, is unconcerned, clearly bent on using their recording of the glimpse to scare the populous into submission. Despite incomplete data, she insists that the hellish realm they saw was the Abyss, the fate of the unsanctified after death.Only Sujan, a brilliant young scientist, is willing to investigate further. To his shock, he makes a discovery that rocks his world to its core.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrew M. Crusoe.

    Indonesia, Etc.: Exploring the Improbable Nation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 783min
    An entertaining and thought-provoking portrait of Indonesia: a rich, dynamic, and often maddening nation awash with contradictions. Jakarta tweets more than any other city on earth, but 80 million Indonesians live without electricity and many of its communities still share in ritual sacrifices. Declaring independence in 1945, Indonesia said it would "work out the details of the transfer of power etc. as soon as possible." With over 300 ethnic groups spread across 13,500 islands, the world's fourth most populous nation has been working on that "etc." ever since. Bewitched by Indonesia for twenty-five years, Elizabeth Pisani recently traveled 26,000 miles around the archipelago in search of the links that bind this impossibly disparate nation. Fearless and funny, Pisani shares her deck space with pigs and cows, bunks down in a sulfurous volcano, and takes tea with a corpse. Along the way, she observes Big Men with child brides, debates corruption and cannibalism, and ponders "sticky" traditions that cannot be erased. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jan Cramer.

    Moses & Son: Pioneers of Frontier Florida , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 235min
    Florida, now America's third most populous state, was a remote, under-populated wilderness in the early 19th century. Two men, father and son, were major players in the state's development and eventual statehood. Yet their roles were vastly different and they achieved prominence in totally divergent ways. Despite their achievements they remain mostly forgotten today. Moses Elias Levy, a businessman and developer, bought thousands of acres of Florida land from Spanish grantees and established "Pilgrimage", intended as a homeland for displaced Jews. He proposed America's first school for Jewish children and relentlessly advocated for Judaism (as well as the abolition of slavery). His son, David Levy Yulee became a lawyer, politician, territorial delegate to Congress and ultimately, one of Florida's first two Senators. He lobbied for Florida's admission to the Union in 1845. He was the stubborn builder of Florida's first cross-state railroad at a time when there were virtually no roads. This is a history of Frontier Florida, a story of religion and politics, slavery and the Civil War, and a glimpse into relationships of fathers and sons. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Midst Toil and Tribulation: Safehold, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1703min
    After centuries of stasis, the island kingdom of Charis began to defy the edicts of the Church of God Awaiting - egged on, some say, by the mysterious warrior-monk Merlin Athawes. Now, in the wars and intrigues that have cascaded from Charis's declaration of independence, the populous Republic of Siddermark is sliding into chaos. Vicar Clytahn of the Church of God at harvest time, King Cayleb of Charis, his queen Sharleyan, and Merlin Arthawes will have their hands full trying to stave off wholesale starvation in Siddermark while at the same time shipping in enough land combat units to fend off the "volunteers" from the Church's Temple Lands. And while Vicar Clyntahn is hailed in the Church for his boldness and audacity, there are those who remember how dependent Church power is on money from Siddermark...and who wonder what will happen if Siddermark starves. Bursting with vivid invention and the sweep of lived history, Midst Toil and Tribulation will build its series' audience to a new level. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin T. Collins.

    Modelling China's Energy Future
    Climate Change, air pollution, and energy security are three key policy issues in China's energy sector. To address the aforementioned challenges, JianJun Tu applied CIMS, a technologically explicit and behaviourally realistic model to the most populous country. His research findings show that there are plausible energy development paths that would enable China to continue economic development while ensuring security of energy supply and acceptable local and global environmental quality. Advanced technologies have been identified as the key drivers to achieve ambitious emissions control and energy security targets. In addition, This book reveals that while a carbon tax can effectively reduce both carbon and sulphur emissions, a sulphur tax is a policy instrument more specifically targeting local air quality issues. Furthermore, it is essential to understand the inevitable tradeoff between different policy goals and their associated costs. While a best case energy development path can be formulated to alleviate all three policy challenges, this path will be inevitably associated with substantial costs, which imposes a challenge for China's energy policy makers in the years to come.

    China in Ten Words , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 467min
    From one of China’s most acclaimed writers, his first work of nonfiction to appear in English: a unique, intimate look at the Chinese experience over the last several decades, told through personal stories and astute analysis that sharply illuminate the country’s meteoric economic and social transformation. Framed by ten phrases common in the Chinese vernacular - “people”, “leader”, “reading”, “writing”, “Lu Xun” (one of the most influential Chinese writers of the twentieth century), “disparity”, “revolution”, “grassroots”, “copycat”, and “bamboozle” - China in Ten Words reveals as never before the world’s most populous yet oft-misunderstood nation. In “Disparity”, for example, Yu Hua illustrates the mind-boggling economic gaps that separate citizens of the country. In “Copycat”, he depicts the escalating trend of piracy and imitation as a creative new form of revolutionary action. And in “Bamboozle”, he describes the increasingly brazen practices of trickery, fraud, and chicanery that are, he suggests, becoming a way of life at every level of society. Characterized by Yu Hua’s trademark wit, insight, and courage, China in Ten Words is a refreshingly candid vision of the “Chinese miracle” and all its consequences, from the singularly invaluable perspective of a writer living in China today. ungekürzt.
