Side Step , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 36min

Picture a bar in Red Hook, a dangerous port in Brooklyn across the river from New York City. A horrible scene begins between Rebecca who serves beer and a customer Lawrence, who looks with one eye on Rebecca and one on the door.'I am pregnant,' she says. We, the other bar patrons, listen while she explains to Lawrence. 'I am being watched by a creature, and it knew of the man I was with...the creature is a a monster and facilitates such sexual recombinations.'What is the reader to think as the action unfolds? Is it the effect of too much beer? Some B-movie horror playing out on the TV screen above our heads? Or is it an attack on Rebecca’s cellular ribosomes by the growth of a wasp egg that would feed on her innards unless her brother Lawrence’s antibodies can defend against her enemies?Again, the scientific mind of Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr. serves up a mixed-genre story that repulses the senses with images of wasp stings, pimples leaking streams of pus, and Lawrence’s suction of cancerous RNA strands, while also imparting a microscope textbook explanation of processes we never think about.Side Step is connected to two other of the author’s stories - Ollie Deaton and the Breathitt County Silver Mine and The Manure Pit. Van Stockum is always educational, always entertaining. (Mary Popham, author) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tracy Bond Bird.

A Good Face for Radio: Confessions of a Radio Head , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 444min

Eddie Mair is, by his own account, one of Britain's most beloved broadcasters. Born in Dundee, Scotland, he has worked in radio all his adult life. From the foothills of commercial radio in his hometown, through the sunlit uplands of the BBC in Scotland, he has reached the peaks of his profession with BBC network radio in London. And he's never afraid to work a metaphor beyond endurance. In addition, he's appeared on most of the BBC's TV channels, including ones that are no longer on TV. He witnessed the handover of Hong Kong and once asked Arnold Schwarzenegger a question - though he takes no responsibility for either. For nearly 20 years, he has been at the helm of Radio 4's PM: a nightly news round-up that means Eddie works for just one hour a day, giving him plenty time to knock together these diaries. Whether he's interviewing politicians, getting people to share their personal experiences or just imparting his favourite zesty chicken recipes, Eddie is never happier than when he is at the microphone. Except when he is at the microphone with a large martini. In truth, his neediness is an irritation to everyone who knows him and if you buy this book he might get out of their hair. Eddie's other work, as a humanitarian and tireless, secret worker for charity is not mentioned in this audiobook. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eddie Mair.

Buffalo Bill and Sitting Bull: Inventing the Wild West, M.K. Brown Range Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1500min

Army scout, buffalo hunter, Indian fighter, and impresario of the world-renowned "Wild West show", William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody lived the real American West and also helped create the "West of the imagination". Born in 1846, he took part in the great westward migration, hunted the buffalo, and made friends among the Plains Indians, who gave him the name Pahaska ("long hair"). But as the frontier closed and his role in "winning the West" passed into legend, Buffalo Bill found himself becoming the symbol of the destruction of the buffalo and the American Indian. Deeply dismayed, he spent the rest of his life working to save the remaining buffalo and to preserve Plains Indian culture through his Wild West shows.This biography of William Cody focuses on his lifelong relationship with Plains Indians, a vital part of his life story that, surprisingly, has been seldom told. Bobby Bridger draws on many historical accounts and Cody's own memoirs to show how deeply intertwined Cody's life was with the Plains Indians. In particular, he demonstrates that the Lakota and Cheyenne were active cocreators of the Wild West shows, which helped them preserve the spiritual essence of their culture in the reservation era while also imparting something of it to White society in America and Europe. This dual story of Buffalo Bill and the Plains Indians clearly reveals how one West was lost, and another born, within the lifetime of one remarkable man. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Understanding the War Between the States , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 626min

Understanding the War Between the States is a supplemental history by 16 writers that enables a more complete and truthful study of American history. Consisting of 40 concise chapters, beginning with the Colonial era of North America, moving to the Revolution and the establishment of the US, it proceeds into westward expansion to the Pacific Ocean. But at that point in American history, the Northern cultures and Southern cultures clash in a horrific political sectional contest over how powerful the country's federal government should be. The consequence is political sectionalism in the Northern states, giving rise to the Republican Party and the election of Abraham Lincoln and Republican governors throughout the Northern states. Secession of seven Southern states takes place, and President Lincoln contrives a pretext for launching a war of subjugation and conquest against the non-Republican Southern States. After four years of horrific war, even "total war", the Federals prevail. A process of political reconstruction ensues, a process for the federal government to become all-powerful is launched, and the limited government promised by the American Revolution is lost to memory. State rights declines into a faint memory of days long ago, everywhere, North, South, and West. Our society has produced the most concise, complete, and easily understandable history that has ever been created for the purpose of imparting a truthful understanding of the war between the states. ungekürzt.

Sunny Days , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min

Sunny Days is a fascinating account of the growth of one of India's greatest batsman - one whose astonishing feats on the cricket field had resulted innumerable records being rewritten and setting close to tiresome targets. How did the story of Sunil Manohar Gavaskar begin? What was the genesis of the man who grew to be a legend in his own lifetime? The story starts with a baby being switched after birth - luckily restored by an eagle-eyed uncle; he grows up to almost break his mother's nose with a mighty hit (a childhood habit that persists in later life); plays good cricket in school and college; inevitably graduates beyond university and trophy cricket; is occasionally booed by the crowd, as his uncle happens to be a selector; and then bursts into the international cricket scene with his test debut at Port of Spain at the age of 21. The year 1971 is Gavaskar's year, and sunny days have finally begun for Indian cricket. By the end of the 1975-76 season, Gavaskar has played 147 first-class matches and amassed 11,574 runs and 38 hundreds. He has played 24 matches in eight Tests, with 2,123 runs and 8 hundreds. And there is still nearly a decade left before the glory days of the Kotla and Chidambaram stadiums. A fluently written book with Gavaskar's usual self-effacing modesty imparting a rare grace, Sunny Days is a must-listen for all cricket fans. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rishabh Mittal.

Carbon Awakening: Birth of The God Machine , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 386min

What's next for us?Ethics Engineer Jennifer Peterson already knows where humans are going. As robots gain more facility with thought and problem solving, a human future melded with machines seems inescapable. But the timing will be critical, for in 2030, America is torn between an analog past and a digital future. Silicon Valley and forward-thinking states have broken away from the U.S. to pursue their own path, one that Jennifer and her husband, George, have staked their lives upon.As a young scientist, Jennifer had glimpsed an era in which next-stage humans would gain the ability to balance rational and emotional intelligence."If robots could feel, they could help man build on our greatest strength - our intellect - and overcome our greatest weakness - emotion. This reliance on the heart regarding matters of the mind, I believe, is what holds us back from further evolution".Now, her effort to bring artificial consciousness to machines is nearing a tipping point. She and George fear that, if not upended, the old models of money and power will allow the wealthy elite to hoard the highest form of intelligence, leaving ordinary people behind. Together, their work could trigger two revolutionary events: imparting a soul to artificial intelligence, and bringing human beings one step nearer to integrating with these ultimate thinking, feeling machines.As fiction meets fact, listeners will come to realize they are previewing not what's next for us...but when and how. Is Jennifer's journey near its end? Or is it just beginning? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rosanna Bini. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/167373/bk_acx0_167373_sample.mp3.
