Assyrian Empire: A History from Beginning to End: Mesopotamia History, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 68min
Discover the remarkable history of the Assyrian Empire...The Assyrian Empire was the largest, most powerful, and longest-lasting in the ancient world. It included lands that comprise modern-day Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, Palestine, Kuwait, Jordan, Bahrain, and Cyprus, as well as large parts of modern Saudi Arabia, Libya, Turkey, and Iran. The Assyrian army was the most effective, most highly trained, and best equipped in the ancient world, and few nations dared to stand against it. This force was used with ruthless brutality by Assyrian kings to ensure that potential foes were terrified of losing a battle with the Assyrians.There wasn’t just one Assyrian empire; there were three. Each rose, seized lands in the ancient Near East, and then declined to insignificance. It was only the third empire, the Neo-Assyrian empire, that finally attained the full size and scope which previous rulers had attempted. Yet, the very size of the empire was part of what eventually led to its downfall. Internal dissent and civil wars weakened the empire to the point that it was not able to exercise effective control over the lands it had conquered. When this point arrived, the Assyrian Empire collapsed and disintegrated with bewildering speed. This is the story of the rise and fall of the three Assyrian Empires.Discover a plethora of chapters, such as:The City of AshurThe Old KingdomThe Warrior SocietyThe Late Bronze Age CollapseThe Fall of the Assyrian EmpireAnd much more!So, if you want a concise and informative book on the Assyrian Empire, simply scroll up and click the "buy now" button for instant access! ungekürzt.

Unafraid: Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 433min
Learn how to face and overcome the fears we feel about loneliness, illness, financial insecurity, disappointing others, failure, insignificance, and aging.“A thoughtful, literate, faith-filled guide to reclaiming our minds and our lives.” (John Ortberg, senior pastor of Menlo Church and author of I’d Like You More If You Were More Like Me)You’d be hard-pressed to overstate the extent to which fear, anxiety, and worry permeate our lives today. Fear wreaks havoc on our relationships and communities. It leads us into making bad decisions. It holds us back from the very pursuits that promise fulfillment and joy.As the senior pastor of a large, diverse church in America’s heartland, Adam Hamilton has seen the cost of fear up close. When he surveyed his congregation on how fear affects them, 2,400 people responded - and what they said was eye-opening. Eighty percent admitted to living with moderate or significant levels of fear. Unafraid is Hamilton's insightful and impassioned response. Drawing on recent research, inspiring real-life examples, and fresh biblical insight, Hamilton uses a mixture of facts and faith to help listeners understand and counter fears related to such outsize perils as death and illness, as well as the everyday anxieties all of us encounter. He invites us to: Face our fears with a bias of hopeExamine our fears in light of the facts Attack our anxieties with action Release our cares to GodWriting with generosity and intelligence, Hamilton shows how believer and unbeliever alike can develop sustaining spiritual practices and embrace Jesus’ recurring counsel: “Do not be afraid.” For anyone struggling with fear or wondering how families and communities can thrive in troubled times, Unafraid offers an informed and inspiring message full of practical solutions. ungekürzt.

From the Front Porch to the Front Page: McKinley and Bryan in the 1896 Presidential Campaign : Presidential Rhetoric and Political Communication , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 495min
The last presidential campaign of the 19th century was remarkable in a number of ways. It marked the beginning of the use of the news media in a modern manner. It saw the Democratic Party shift toward the more liberal position it occupies today. It established much of what we now consider the Republican coalition: Northeastern, conservative, pro-business. It was also notable for the rhetorical differences of its two candidates. In what is often thought of as a single-issue campaign, William Jennings Bryan delivered his famous “Cross of Gold” speech but lost the election. Meanwhile, William McKinley addressed a range of topics in more than 300 speeches - without ever leaving his front porch.The campaign of 1896 gave the public one of the most dramatic and interesting battles of political oratory in American history, even though, ironically, its issues faded quickly into insignificance after the election. In From the Front Porch to the Front Page, author William D. Harpine traces the campaign month by month to reveal the development of Bryan’s rhetoric and the stability of McKinley’s. He contrasts the divisive oratory Bryan employed to whip up fervor (perhaps explaining the 80 percent turnout in the election) with the lower-keyed unifying strategy McKinley adopted and with McKinley’s astute privileging of rhetorical siting over actual rhetoric.Beyond adding depth and detail to the scholarly understanding of the 1896 presidential campaign itself (and especially the “Cross of Gold” speech), this book casts light on the importance of historical perspective in understanding rhetorical efforts in politics.The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks."Demolishes the images of McKinley as a vapid politician and Bryan as a rube."

Illumination , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 406min
Everything you may have heard about enlightenment, which I call Illumination, is based on hearsay derived from metaphors too out of date for most people to fully understand. That is why I have reinterpreted the metaphors for the 21st century, making your path to Illumination easier to follow than ever! But I wasn't always Illuminated. I was born a Christian, born again, brought to Atheism through critical thought, and only found my way through Buddhism after a decade of hard work. Illumination was not found by following what I had been told but by searching deliberately. If you want to see the kingdom of heaven, you have to actually look. Illumination is the essential ingredient missing from much of western religion and atheism is not designed to help you find it. Though it fits well in the atheist system - Illumination requires no god or worship - Illumination should be sought by Christians as well, for a more complete understanding of where they fit in the universe. Because, as it turns out, Illumination (or enlightenment) is not as difficult to find as you might think. Heaven (or Nirvana) is all around you; you just need to know where and how to look. Understand such concepts as Samsara, Reincarnation, Karma, and Sunyata in ways you probably never imagined, ways that enrich your life - the only one you'll ever get - so you don't spend all of your time expecting it in a life after this one. Illumination can be as simple as a change in perspective or as difficult as the destruction of the self, comprehending the significance of your own insignificance. But you can do it right now without dogma, without authoritarian rule, and without god. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ken La Salle.

Hannibal: The True Story of the Life and Time of the Ancient Military Leader (Great Military Leaders) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min
Do you want to learn more about the great military leader Hannibal, but don’t have time to read huge, long biographies? Then let The History Journals take you on an hourly history tour of his life.When it comes to great military leaders few will inspire the imagination of each new generation more than Hannibal, the mighty Carthaginian who marched 37 war elephants across the Alps in a bid to take on the Roman Empire. Even today this would be a daring and perilous adventure, but the fact that Hannibal succeeded in his mission in 218BC makes it all the more incredible.Interestingly, few people remember that eventually Hannibal went on to lose his battle with Rome, which paled into insignificance compared with his achievement of taking elephants across the Alps. However, the man behind the legend was as remarkable as the stories that surround him and for this history journal we’ll embark upon a journey of discovery to find out who Hannibal really was.Quickly forgetting all about Hannibal the Cannibal from the pen of Thomas Harris and The Silence of the Lambs, the Hannibal in question here lived before the birth of Christ and has been credited with being an inspiration to many of the world’s military leaders, including the French Emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte and his very British nemesis, the Duke of Wellington. Both men were renowned for being great military strategists, but when we go back in time to when Hannibal waged war on the Romans, we can certainly see where it all began. You will learn about:His life beginning to the endHis use of war elephantsHow he inspired other military leaders like NapoleonHow the Carthaginians were adept in both military and trade operationsHow he and his father, Hamilcar Barca, were part of the Punic WarsThe History JournalsWe create enlightening history books for people looking to learn about topics in a quick study guid ungekürzt.

Living and Working in Switzerland
Whether you're already living or working in Switzerland or just thinking about it - this is THE BOOK for you. Forget about those glossy guide books, excellent though they are for tourists; this book was written especially with you in mind and is worth its weight in Emmental cheese (and not just the holes!). Furthermore, this fully revised and updated 15th edition is printed in colour.Living and Working in Switzerland has been written to meet the needs of anyone wishing to know the essentials of Swiss life - however long your intended stay, you'll find the information contained in this book invaluable. In contrast to the wealth of information provided by Switzerland Tourism, reliable and up-to-date information specifically intended for foreigners living and working in Switzerland isn't so easy to find - particularly in English. Our aim in publishing this book was to help fill this void and provide the comprehensive, practical information necessary for a relatively trouble-free life.You may have visited Switzerland as a tourist, but living and working there's a different matter altogether. Adjusting to a different environment and culture and making a home in any foreign country can be a traumatic and stressful experience - and Switzerland is no exception. Living and Working in Switzerland is a comprehensive handbook on a wide range of everyday subjects and represents the most up-to-date source of general information available to foreigners in Switzerland.It isn't, however, simply a catalogue of dry facts and figures, but a practical and entertaining look at life. Adjusting to life in a new country is a continuous process, and although this book will help reduce your novice phase and minimise the frustrations, it doesn't contain all the answers (most of us don't even know the right questions to ask!). What it will do, however.is help you make informed decisions and calculated judgements, instead of uneducated guesses and costly mistakes. Most importantly, it will help save you time, trouble and money, and repay your investment many times over. Although you may find some of the information a bit daunting, don't be discouraged.Most problems occur only once and fade into insignificance after a short time (as you face the next half a dozen - ). Most foreigners in Switzerland would agree that, all things considered, they love living there. A period spent in Switzerland is a wonderful way to enrich your life, broaden your horizons, and, with any luck (and some hard work) you may even make your fortune.I trust this book will help you avoid the pitfalls of life in Switzerland and smooth your way to a happy and rewarding future in your new home.- Shop: buecher
