  Communications, Hörbuch, Digital, 68min

  If we can't communicate we can't express our love, our upset, our thoughts, our feelings, our aspirations, our creativity, in fact if we don't express ourselves we are making ourselves redundant in life and falling very short of who we are. Yes, there are despots and dictators and evil religions that supress communications and the messages they deliver, but the irony of all of that is that they poach from the societies that allow communications because they haven't themelves the guts or brain power to effectively use it. We should never be afraid to speak the truth, even if we are shaking we should speak it. We don't need acceptance nor permission from anyone to say what we have to say. Communications between people show how in tune we are with others, our feelings and notions that we want them to know. We need communications to get an aircraft full of people loaded with fuel and our meals and to fly safely to our destination, it is all about communications. If we are good with our communications then we tend to get on better in life, if we are selfish and thoughtless then we don't usually get very far - unless we have a manager who does that for us.Communications are essential to enjoying life. For those that find communications a problem you need to listen to this audio download.... Language: English. Narrator: Mr John Stewart Rushton.

  A Little Hero , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 104min

  A Little Hero takes place during some summer days at a manor house outside of Moscow, where members of the Russian upper class enjoy themselves with lavish parties, scenic outings, and various carefree pursuits. The main character is an 11-year-old boy who becomes fascinated by and falls in love with the beautiful and melancholic Madame M, who is a grown-up, married woman. Through the boy's clear sight we gain an insight into what is going on behind the polished surface of the manor and its guests, including the unequal balance between the sexes and the grown-ups' condescending and thoughtless behavior toward the children. In addition, the story contains some very rich depictions of landscape and the natural surroundings and is first and foremost a beautiful representation of a boy's first meeting with erotic love. When Dostoyevsky was arrested in 1848 for revolutionary activity - because of his membership in the intellectual group the Petrashevsky Circle - he was sent to the well-defended Peter and Paul Fortress in Saint Petersburg, which housed the most dangerous convicts. He spent eight months there while awaiting his sentence. After three months he was allowed a candle in his cell, and he immediately got to work on writing a story, which became A Little Hero. The lovely little tale forms a sharp contrast to the grim circumstances under which it was written. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Bateson.

  Catastrophe in the Making: The Engineering of Katrina and the Disaters of Tomorrow , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 323min

  When houses are flattened, towns submerged, and people stranded without electricity or even food, we attribute the suffering to "natural disasters" or "acts of God." But what if they're neither? What if we, as a society, are bringing these catastrophes on ourselves? That's the provocative theory of Catastrophe in the Making, the first audiobook to recognize Hurricane Katrina not as a "perfect storm," but a tragedy of our own making - and one that could become commonplace. The authors, one a longtime New Orleans resident, argue that breached levees and sloppy emergency response are just the most obvious examples of government failure. The true problem is more deeply rooted and insidious, and stretches far beyond the Gulf Coast. Based on the false promise of widespread prosperity, communities across the U.S. have embraced all brands of "economic development" at all costs. In Louisiana, that meant development interests turning wetlands into shipping lanes. By replacing a natural buffer against storm surges with a 75-mile long, obsolete canal that cost hundreds of millions of dollars, they guided the hurricane into the heart of New Orleans and adjacent communities. The authors reveal why, despite their geographic differences, California and Missouri are building - quite literally - toward similar destruction. Too often, the U.S. "growth machine" generates wealth for a few and misery for many. Drawing lessons from the most expensive "natural" disaster in American history, Catastrophe in the Making tells why thoughtless development comes at a price we can ill afford. ungekürzt.

  Summary, Analysis, and Review of Daniel Kahneman's - Thinking, Fast and Slow , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 24min

  Please note: This is a key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book. Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow, includes a summary of the book, review, analysis & key takeaways, and detailed About the Author section. Preview: Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow, sums up an exceptionally productive career of scholarly research in behavioral psychology. In collaboration with psychologist Amos Tversky, Kahneman helped develop the fields of behavioral economics, and the psychology of judgment. Most importantly, through a series of research projects, Kahneman and Tversky challenged the notion, still dominant in the field of economics, that people are rational decision-makers whose preferences remain constant over time. Far from it, Kahneman and Tversky discovered: our decisions are heavily influenced by context, all the way from how the questions are presented to us, to the images and numbers that might accompany them. Kahneman uses this audiobook to explore how these decision-making processes work. He characterizes the type of rapid-fire, thoughtless reacting, that constitutes most thought as "System 1" thinking, and more reflective, strategic thinking as "System 2." Examples of System 1 managed functions include simple arithmetic, basic reading comprehension, and determining the relative distances and sizes of objects. System 2, by contrast, handles difficult tasks such as parallel parking, walking at a faster-than-normal speed, acting appropriately in various public settings, following people, and sorting and classifying various materials (numbers, letters, products, and so on). ungekürzt.

  Furious Rush , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 837min

  Addicting and heart pounding - you won't be able to put it down until you've devoured every word. (Christina Lauren, New York Times best-selling author of Untamed) The first in an emotion-fueled new-adult series from the number-one best-selling author of the Thoughtless novels. Too fast, too furious - and way too hot to handle... Mackenzie Cox has a lot to prove. Daughter of a racing legend, she is eager to show the world that she has inherited her father's talent in the male-dominated sport of professional motorcycle racing. The last thing Kenzie needs is to be antagonized by her rival team's newest rider, Hayden Hayes. Plucked from the world of illegal street racing, Hayden immediately gets under Kenzie's skin. His insinuations that Kenzie is a spoiled princess who was handed her career fuels her desire to win, and, much to her surprise, Kenzie soon learns she performs better when she's racing against Hayden. As Kenzie and Hayden push each other on the track, the electric energy between them off the track shifts into an intense - and strictly forbidden - attraction. The only rule between their two ultracompetitive teams is zero contact. Kenzie always does her best to play by the rules, but when her team slips into a financial crisis, she has no choice but to turn to Hayden for help. The tension simmers during their secret late-night rendezvous, but Kenzie has too much to lose to give in to her desires.
