Title: Citizen: My Life After the White House
Author: Bill Clinton
Narrator: TBD
Format: Unabridged
Length: 25:00:00
Language: English
Release date: 11-19-2024
Publisher: Random House (Audio)
Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Law & Politics, North America

Summary:
A powerful, candid, and richly detailed memoir from an American icon, revealing what life looks like after the presidency: triumphs, tribulations, and all. On January 20, 2001, after nearly thirty years in politics—eight of them as president of the United States—Bill Clinton was suddenly a private citizen. Only fifty-four years old, full of energy and ideas, he wanted to make meaningful use of his skills, his relationships with world leaders, and all he’d learned in a lifetime of politics, but how? Just days after leaving the White House, the call came to aid victims of a devastating earthquake in India, and Clinton hit the ground running. Over the next two decades, he would create an enduring legacy of public service and advocacy work, from Indonesia to Louisiana, Northern Ireland to South Africa, and in the process reimagine philanthropy and redefine the impact a former president could have on the world. Citizen is Clinton’s front-row, first-person chronicle of his postpresidential years and the most significant events of the twenty-first century, including 9/11 and the runup to the Iraq War, the Haiti earthquake, the Great Recession, the January 6 insurrection, and the enduring culture wars of our times. With clarity and compassion, he also weighs in on the unprecedented challenges brought on by a global pandemic, ongoing income inequality, a steadily warming planet, and authoritarian forces dedicated to weakening democracy. Yet Citizen is more than a political memoir. These pages capture Clinton in a rare and unforgettable light: not only as a celebrated former president and a foundation leader, but as a father, grandfather, and husband. He recounts his support for Hillary Clinton during her time as senator, secretary of state, and presidential candidate, and shares the frustration and pain of the 2016 election. In this landmark publication, the highly anticipated follow-up to the best-selling My Life, Clinton pens an illuminating account of American democracy on a global stage, offering a frank reflection on the past and, with it, a fearless embrace of our future. Citizen is a self-portrait of equal parts eloquence, insight, and candor, a testament to one man’s unwavering commitment to family and nation.

Title: Essentials of Economic Theory
Author: John Bates Clark
Narrator: Ethan Williams
Format: Unabridged
Length: 14:16:34
Language: English
Release date: 03-16-2023
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Business & Economics

Summary:
John Bates Clark was an American economist who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is considered one of the founders of the neoclassical school of economics and is best known for his work on marginal productivity theory. One of Clark's most influential works is his book 'The Essentials of Economic Theory' which was first published in 1907. The book provides an introduction to economic theory and covers a wide range of topics, including production, consumption, distribution, and exchange. Clark's approach to economic theory was highly mathematical and he believed that economic analysis should be based on the principles of marginalism. He argued that the value of a good or service is determined by the marginal utility it provides to consumers and the marginal cost of producing it. Clark also developed the theory of marginal productivity, which suggests that the value of a worker's contribution to the production process is equal to the marginal product of labor. This theory has been highly influential in the development of modern labor economics. Overall, 'The Essentials of Economic Theory' is an important work that has had a significant impact on the development of economic thought. Clark's emphasis on the principles of marginalism and his development of the theory of marginal productivity have helped to shape the way that economists think about markets and the role of individuals in the production process.

Summary:
The Norman Conquest of England was that series of events during the latter part of the eleventh century by which a Norman Duke was set on the throne of England, and was enabled to hand down the crown of England to his descendants. The Norman Conquest of England does in truth mean a great deal more than the mere transfer of the crown from one prince or one family to another, or even than the transfer of the crown from a prince born in the land to a prince who came from beyond the sea. It means a great number of changes of all kinds which have made the history and state of England ever since very different from what they would have been if the Norman Conquest had never happened.

Title: New Scientific Paradigm Where Consciousness
Author: Mark Gober
Narrator: Justine Willis Toms
Format: Unabridged
Length: 0:57:21
Language: English
Release date: 12-14-2018
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Health & Wellness, Death & Bereavement

Summary:
Scientific materialism is the reigning paradigm of scientific inquiry. It is the notion that physical matter is fundamental in the universe. Materialism assumes that matter produces consciousness and holds that the brain produces consciousness. Therefore, when your brain dies, your consciousness dies. Gober has compiled extensive research that turns scientific materialism upside down and purports that consciousness is the fundamental basis of all reality, including matter. He gives examples from many reputable physicists who concur that all matter derives from consciousness. All this raises the question of whether or not life is finite. Gober says, “What I think the evidence points toward is the notion that consciousness isn’t dependent on the body; therefore when the body ceases to function consciousness itself does not die. That has huge implications for how we think about everything. . . I think we might recontextualize our lives . . maybe we wouldn’t fear death as much. Then how might we live if we don’t think death is the end?”

The medical choices that we have today can be bewildering. They include allopathic medicine, also known as Western medicine, Eastern medicine, and alternative or natural/holistic medicine. Also our choice of health practitioners has an even larger number of options. We can go to naturopaths, acupuncturists, osteopaths, or MDs. We can look up symptoms on the Internet and attempt to self-diagnose from countless illnesses and diseases. The choices are multitudinous. So how do we wade through the variety of options? Elson Haas, M.D. is dedicated to empowering each of us with the knowledge and resources we need to make the best choices for our health. He says, “I want to engage with people; I like to keep people out of hospitals, out of surgery, and using the least medicines. What I do as an integrative practitioner is to work with multiple systems. I want the simplest, most effective, and safest thing for people to use and a lot of times that’s natural remedies over and above drugs.” In this deep dialogue Haas describes three systems of medicine - Natural Medicine, Eastern Medicine, Western Medicine - and when each may be appropriate to support our best health.

Format: Unabridged
Length: 11:05:00
Language: English
Release date: 12-04-2018
Publisher: Random House (Audio)
Genres: History, Politics, North America, General

Summary:
Created and compiled by Charles Krauthammer before his death, The Point of It All is a powerful collection of the influential columnist's most important works. Spanning the personal, the political and the philosophical, it includes never-before-published speeches and a major new essay about the effect of today's populist movements on the future of global democracy. Edited and with an introduction by the columnist's son, Daniel Krauthammer, it is the most intimate and profound book yet by the legendary writer and thinker.   In his decades of work as America's preeminent political commentator, Charles Krauthammer elevated the opinion column to a form of art. Whether writing about statecraft and foreign policy or reflecting on more esoteric topics such as baseball, spaceflight and medical ethics, Krauthammer was beloved not only for his penetrating wit and insight but also for his ability to identify the hidden moral truths that animate our politics and culture.   This new collection, which Krauthammer composed before his death in June 2018, features the columns, speeches and unpublished writings that showcase the best of his original thought and his last, enduring words on the state of American politics, the nature of liberal democracy and the course of world history.   The book also includes a deeply personal section offering insight into Krauthammer's beliefs about what mattered most to him--friendship, family and the principles he lived by--all anchored by Daniel Krauthammer's poignant eulogy for his father.   For longtime readers and newcomers alike, The Point of It All is a timely demonstration of what it means to cut through the noise of petty politics with clarity, integrity and intellectual fortitude. It is a reminder of what made Charles Krauthammer the most celebrated American columnist and political thinker of his generation, a revealing look at the man behind the words and a lasting testament to his belief that anyone with an open and honest mind can grapple deeply with the most urgent questions in politics and in life. With an Introduction and Eulogy by Daniel Krauthammer, read by Daniel Krauthammer

Title: Company-wide Agility with Beyond Budgeting, Open Space & Sociocracy: Survive & Thrive on Disruption

Language: English
Release date: 11-28-2018

Genres: Business & Economics, Career Development, Accounting & Finance, Business Development

Summary:
Today companies are expected to be flexible and both rapidly responsive and resilient to change, which basically asks them to be Agile. Lack of an overarching theory about how to expand the Agile Manifesto has led to many fragmented attempts to apply Agile company-wide. Enjoy insights in the book shared by Jez Humble, Diana Larsen, James Shore, Johanna Rothman, and Bjarte Bogsnes. Find out what Spotify, ING, Ericsson, and Walmart say in the book. Quotes from early readers: - '[This is] a very important book. My hopes are that it will be the missing link between agile for teams and the flexible, adaptive and humane organisations we want to build. It's a great book. Thanks for writing it!' ~Sandy Mamoli, author of Creating Great Teams - 'Just as Spotify has worked hard to make all aspects of product development align well and work together - I see Jutta and John in this book exploring methods and processes that will work very well across the whole company.' ~ Anders Ivarsson, Spotify - 'I love how those practices [are] integrated and summarized into actionable recommendations.' ~ Yves Lin, Titansoft - 'Really wonderful balance of structure and space, rigor and creativity, that you're suggesting.' ~ Michael Herman, Openspaceworld.org - 'Company-wide Agility with Beyond Budgeting, Open Space and Sociocracy [...] makes an important case for companies to regard trust and autonomy the norm, rather than a privilege. [...] Overall a great overview of how leaders can reimagine the way power is distributed within their companies.' ~ Aimee Groth, Author of The Kingdom of Happiness: Inside Tony Hsieh's Zapponian Utopia Notice, how they emphasize that doing Agile (the mechanics) is different from being Agile (the mindset). The mindset lets you apply flexible Agile patterns not only for software development teams but for the whole company. Many experts are looking into implementing company-wide Agility. Yet, they work from one perspective. For example: - A Beyond Budgeting expert might say, 'Stop fixing the budget annually, because otherwise you won't have the flexibility to react to frequent market changes.' - An Open Space expert might say, 'You need to make space for what you don't know and can't control, for totally new things to emerge. If people can follow their passion, you will be able to implement company-wide Agility, otherwise people will just do what they are asked.' - A Sociocracy expert might say, 'You first need to resolve the power structure, because as long as you have a hierarchy defined as top-down you will not become agile.' - An Agile expert might say, 'You need to start inspecting and adapting by using regular retrospectives in order to react flexibly, otherwise you will neither be able to learn from the market nor from within your company.' All of these perspectives are true, but the perspective is always from within the discipline.

Title: Harmonies of Political Economy
Author: Frederic Bastiat
Narrator: Ethan Williams
Format: Unabridged
Length: 18:32:44
Language: English
Release date: 03-16-2023
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Business & Economics

Summary:
'Harmonies of Political Economy' is a major work by the French economist Frederic Bastiat, who lived from 1801 to 1850. The book, which was first published in 1850, explores the principles of economic theory and argues that free markets are the most effective way to promote economic growth and prosperity. Bastiat believed that government intervention in the economy, such as tariffs, subsidies, and regulations, were counterproductive and tended to distort markets and create inefficiencies. He argued that free trade, competition, and individual liberty were the key ingredients to a harmonious and prosperous society. In 'Harmonies of Political Economy,' Bastiat also discussed the concept of economic harmony, which refers to the idea that individual self-interest and the pursuit of profit can lead to outcomes that benefit society as a whole. He argued that the market was a self-correcting mechanism that could adjust to changing conditions and ensure that resources were allocated efficiently. Overall, Bastiat's work in 'Harmonies of Political Economy' was influential in the development of classical liberal economic thought and remains relevant today in debates over the role of government in the economy.

Summary:
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in this masterly work, the inspiration for HBO’s upcoming Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon “The thrill of Fire & Blood is the thrill of all Martin’s fantasy work: familiar myths debunked, the whole trope table flipped.”—Entertainment Weekly Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen—the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria—took up residence on Dragonstone. Fire & Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart. What really happened during the Dance of the Dragons? Why was it so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What were Maegor the Cruel’s worst crimes? What was it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies? These are but a few of the questions answered in this essential chronicle, as related by a learned maester of the Citadel and featuring more than eighty all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley—including five all-new illustrations exclusive to this edition. Readers have glimpsed small parts of this narrative in such volumes as The World of Ice & Fire, but now, for the first time, the full tapestry of Targaryen history is revealed. With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire & Blood is the the first volume of the definitive two-part history of the Targaryens, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros. Includes a bonus PDF of illustrations from the book Praise for Fire & Blood “A masterpiece of popular historical fiction.”—The Sunday Times “The saga is a rich and dark one, full of both the title’s promised elements. . . . It’s hard not to thrill to the descriptions of dragons engaging in airborne combat, or the dilemma of whether defeated rulers should ‘bend the knee,’ ‘take the black’ and join the Night’s Watch, or simply meet an inventive and horrible end.”—The Guardian

Title: Rewiring Our Brains for Effectiveness and Well-being

Format: Unabridged
Length: 0:57:21
Language: English
Release date: 11-16-2018
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Health & Wellness, Mindfulness & Meditation

Summary:
Graham points out that it is possible to train our brains, our bodies, and our hearts to access our intuitive wisdom, not only to get through the tough times but to grow and become more conscious in the process. This training is supported by research scientists who have found that combining mindfulness and neuroscience, which includes neuroplasticity, can lead us to more resilience and well-being. She describes the five intelligences of the body and mind and tells us, “We’re able to actually regulate the responses of our automatic nervous system so that we’re not too revved up [with] too much anxiety or fear and we’re not too shut down.” She also talks about not bypassing negative emotions and advises that we practice self-compassion saying, “True compassion and any of the positive emotions that we practice actually shift the functioning of the brain out of the negativity bias of the brain, out of contraction, out of reactivity into more openness, into more receptivity, into possibilities of learning and optimism. Any time we practice compassion, kindness, gratitude, joy, awe, delight, we’re shifting the functioning of the brain. So it’s important to cultivate positive emotions, not just to feel better, but so that we can actually do better. The direct, immediate, cause and effect outcome of these positive emotion practices is resilience.” She goes on to point out that when we feel safe, held, loved, and valued by other people, we are supported in our ability to be resilient. She recommends exercise, sleep, nutrition, learning something new, and hanging out with healthy brains as activities that support our brains to be more active and engaged. And when we are feeling overwhelmed it’s helpful to remember that we can’t solve everything, that our task is to mend the little patch where we are.

Summary:
Book 1 - The Farmer's Slaughter A Harley and Davidson Mystery The Texas Hill Country promises to be anything but ordinary when best-selling mystery writer Agatha Harley begins researching her next novel. What she doesn't expect is for her research to lead her to her newly retired neighbor, Hank Davidson. She recognizes a cop when she sees one, and Hank doesn't look like her idea of retired, despite the black socks, sandals, and manicured lawn.  Hank needs a place to forget his past, but Agatha needs his past to secure her future.  As an FBI trained profiler, Hank Davidson sees right through most people. But Agatha isn't most people. She's as seasoned as any cop he knows and just as mouthy. It doesn't take long for him to get caught up in the cold case Agatha's using for research, but small-town roots run deep, and loose lips will tell you anything you want to know - except who the killer is. In the spirit of Angela Lansbury and Murder She Wrote, enjoy these cozy mysteries in order to get the most fun out of your experience. About the authors The dynamic husband and wife writing duo of Liliana Hart and Scott Silverii combine their love of adventure and storytelling into the Harley and Davidson Mystery Series. While they've discussed a team writing effort for years, when it came time to actually develop their characters, both admit to being stumped.  'Why not write us?' they laughed.  Liliana, a 29-time NY Times and USA Today best seller and author of over 59 titles, enjoys this labor of love with her husband. Scott, a former chief of police and law enforcement professional, has over 25 years of banging down doors and busting bad guys. An author of 10 titles, he says this by far is his favorite mission.  Together, they have created a lovable tandem of adventure seeking, mystery-solving heroes that you'll get to know and love. You might even catch a glimpse of Liliana and Scott in each story. Well, probably much more than a glimpse.

Title: Bold & Brave: Ten Heroes Who Won Women the Right to Vote
Author: Kirsten Gillibrand
Narrator: Kirsten Gillibrand
Format: Unabridged

Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018
Publisher: Listening Library (Audio)
Genres: Kids, Non-Fiction, Biography & Memoir, Health & Family

Summary:
From United States Senator Kirsten Gillibrand comes an inspiring audiobook about ten suffragists who fought for women's right to vote. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was inspired by her own great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother to be bold and brave--to stand up and fight for what she believes in. But who inspired them? The long chain of women before them who spoke out for what's right--women who taught each generation that followed how to be bold and brave. Here are the stories of ten leaders who strove to win the right to vote for American women--a journey that took more than seventy years of passionate commitment. From well-known figures, such as Susan B. Anthony and Sojourner Truth to lesser known women such as Alice Paul and Mary Church Terrell, these are heroes who dreamed big and never gave up. Senator Gillibrand highlights an important and pithy lesson from each woman's life--from 'dare to be different' to 'fight together.' On the eve of the one-hundredth anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment, which granted women suffrage, Bold & Brave looks both backward and forward. It introduces children to strong women who have raised their voices on behalf of justice--and inspires them to raise their own voices to build our future. This is an audiobook that will inspire and uplift, an audiobook to be cherished and shared. The suffragists included are: Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, Jovita Idár, Alice Paul, Inez Milholland, Ida B. Wells, Lucy Burns, and Mary Church Terrell.

Title: April 3rd Incident: Stories
Author: Yu Hua
Narrator: Feodor Chin
Format: Unabridged

Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018
Publisher: Random House (Audio)
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Essays & Anthologies, Short Stories, Literary Fiction

Summary:
From one of China’s most famous contemporary writers, who celebrated novel To Live catapulted him to international fame, here is a stunning collection of stories, selected from the best of Yu Hua’s early work, that shows his far-reaching influence on a pivotal period in Chinese literature.   In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Yu Hua and other young Chinese writers began to reimagine their national literature. Departing from conventional realism in favor of a more surreal and subjective approach inspired by Kafka, Faulkner, and Borges, the boundary-pushing fiction of this period reflected the momentous cultural changes sweeping the world’s most populous nation.   The stories collected here show Yu Hua masterfully guiding us from one fractured reality to another. “A History of Two People” traces the paths of a man and a woman who dream in parallel throughout their lives. “In Memory of Miss Willow Yang” weaves a spellbinding web of signs and symbols. “As the North Wind Howled” carries a case of mistaken identity to absurd and hilarious conclusions. And the title story follows an unforgettable narrator determined to unearth a conspiracy against him that may not exist. By turns daring, darkly comic, thought-provoking, and profound, The April 3rd Incident is an extraordinary record of a singular moment in Chinese letters.

Title: Monkey Is the Messenger: Meditation and What Your Busy Mind Is Trying to Tell You

Narrator: Cassandra Campbell, Ralph De La Rosa
Format: Unabridged
Length: 12:25:00
Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018
Publisher: Random House (Audio)
Genres: Health & Wellness, Mindfulness & Meditation

Summary:
Hope for all those who want to meditate but feel they can't because they think too much: A remedy. Making friends with the infamous 'monkey mind' to make it a means for healing and awakening. It's a common story. Someone wants to take up meditation, but they take themselves to be one of those people for whom it just doesn't work because they think too much. And they give it up in frustration after an hour or a couple weeks or a year. But though it is often taken to be the scourge of meditators, repetitive and excessive thinking is an experience common to everyone. The Buddha famously called it 'monkey mind,' and that term has become nearly a household phrase. At worst, when people sit down to meditate and invariably find themselves distracted, subtle and not-so-subtle forms of self-aggression and self-recrimination tend to ensue over an experience that is as natural as it unpreventable. At best, the monkey mind is viewed as an obstruction to a deeper way of being; something to ignore, a pest to move beyond. Such an idea often crops up in today's mindfulness culture, in which a myth prevails that meditation is about 'emptying out thoughts' or 'shutting off the mind.' The truth is, says Ralph De La Rosa, repetitive thinking is a natural function of the human organism that, like all other aspects of our being, serves a purpose-one that is bound up with the activity of awakening. When we stop dismissing this tendency and instead turn toward it, we can discover far-reaching implications in service of well-being, emotional intelligence, cultivating lovingkindness, healing trauma, and developing compassion. Using psychotherapeutic, somatic, and mindfulness-based approaches, The Monkey Is the Messenger is a guide to working productively in meditation practice, in our psychologies, and even in the broader social issues that often lie behind threatening monkey-mind thinking. It will issue a call for readers to end the war they wage with themselves and to meet their minds in a manner that is appropriately informed, efficacious, and enjoyable. Bonus: Includes guided meditations at the end of the program.

Title: Malthus and his work
Author: James Bonar
Narrator: Ethan Williams
Format: Unabridged
Length: 9:12:32
Language: English
Release date: 03-16-2023
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Biography & Memoir, History & Culture

Summary:
Thomas Malthus was an English economist and demographer who lived from 1766 to 1834. He is best known for his influential work, 'An Essay on the Principle of Population,' which was first published in 1798. Malthus argued that population growth would eventually outstrip the available resources, leading to poverty, famine, and disease. He believed that population growth would increase geometrically (exponentially), while the growth of resources would only increase arithmetically (linearly). This meant that, in the long run, population growth would inevitably lead to a scarcity of resources and a decline in living standards. Malthus's work was controversial and was often criticized for its pessimistic outlook on human progress. However, it was also influential and helped to shape the field of demography and population studies. James Bonar was a Scottish economist and historian who lived from 1852 to 1941. He wrote extensively on the history of economic thought and was particularly interested in the work of Malthus. Bonar's most important contribution to the study of Malthus was his biographical work, 'Malthus and His Work,' which was first published in 1885. This book provides a detailed analysis of Malthus's life and work, as well as an assessment of his contributions to economic thought. Bonar argues that Malthus's work was important because it challenged the prevailing optimistic view of human progress and brought attention to the issue of population growth. He also suggests that Malthus's ideas were misinterpreted by many of his contemporaries, who saw his work as a call for population control or as an attack on the poor. Overall, Bonar's work on Malthus helped to shed light on the importance of Malthus's contributions to economic thought and the continuing relevance of his ideas in modern times.

Title: Ladder to the Sky: A Novel
Author: John Boyne

Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Literary Fiction, Psychological, LGBTQ+

Summary:
“A satire of writerly ambition wrapped in a psychological thriller . . . An homage to Patricia Highsmith, Oscar Wilde and Edgar Allan Poe, but its execution is entirely Boyne’s own.”—Ron Charles, The Washington Post NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE Maurice Swift is handsome, charming, and hungry for fame. The one thing he doesn’t have is talent—but he’s not about to let a detail like that stand in his way. After all, a would-be writer can find stories anywhere. They don’t need to be his own.   Working as a waiter in a West Berlin hotel in 1988, Maurice engineers the perfect opportunity: a chance encounter with celebrated novelist Erich Ackermann. He quickly ingratiates himself with the powerful – but desperately lonely – older man, teasing out of Erich a terrible, long-held secret about his activities during the war. Perfect material for Maurice’s first novel. Once Maurice has had a taste of literary fame, he knows he can stop at nothing in pursuit of that high. Moving from the Amalfi Coast, where he matches wits with Gore Vidal, to Manhattan and London, Maurice hones his talent for deceit and manipulation, preying on the talented and vulnerable in his cold-blooded climb to the top. But the higher he climbs, the further he has to fall. . . .   Sweeping across the late twentieth century, A Ladder to the Sky is a fascinating portrait of a relentlessly immoral man, a tour de force of storytelling, and the next great novel from an acclaimed literary virtuoso. Praise for A Ladder to the Sky “Boyne's mastery of perspective, last seen in The Heart's Invisible Furies, works beautifully here. . . . Boyne understands that it's far more interesting and satisfying for a reader to see that narcissist in action than to be told a catchall phrase. Each step Maurice Swift takes skyward reveals a new layer of calumny he's willing to engage in, and the desperation behind it . . . so dark it seems almost impossible to enjoy reading A Ladder to the Sky as much as you definitely will enjoy reading it.”—NPR “Delicious . . . spins out over several decades with thrilling unpredictability, following Maurice as he masters the art of co-opting the stories of others in increasingly dubious ways. And while the book reads as a thriller with a body count that would make Highsmith proud, it is also an exploration of morality and art: Where is the line between inspiration and thievery? To whom does a story belong?”—Vanity Fair

Title: Curse of Bigness: Antitrust in the New Gilded Age
Author: Tim Wu
Narrator: Marc Cashman
Format: Unabridged
Length: 4:13:00
Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018
Publisher: Random House (Audio)
Genres: Business & Economics, Management & Leadership

Summary:
From the man who coined the term 'net neutrality,' author of The Master Switch and The Attention Merchants, comes a warning about the dangers of excessive corporate and industrial concentration for our economic and political future. We live in an age of extreme corporate concentration, in which global industries are controlled by just a few giant firms -- big banks, big pharma, and big tech, just to name a few. But concern over what Louis Brandeis called the 'curse of bigness' can no longer remain the province of specialist lawyers and economists, for it has spilled over into policy and politics, even threatening democracy itself. History suggests that tolerance of inequality and failing to control excessive corporate power may prompt the rise of populism, nationalism, extremist politicians, and fascist regimes. In short, as Wu warns, we are in grave danger of repeating the signature errors of the twentieth century. In The Curse of Bigness, Columbia professor Tim Wu tells of how figures like Brandeis and Theodore Roosevelt first confronted the democratic threats posed by the great trusts of the Gilded Age--but the lessons of the Progressive Era were forgotten in the last 40 years. He calls for recovering the lost tenets of the trustbusting age as part of a broader revival of American progressive ideas as we confront the fallout of persistent and extreme economic inequality.

Title: World According to Garp: A Novel

Length: 20:55:00
Language: English
Release date: 11-13-2018
Publisher: Penguin Audio
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Literary Fiction, Psychological, Sagas

Summary:
A special 40th anniversary edition of the bestselling coming-of-age classic novel by John Irving, with a new introduction by the author.  'He is more than popular. He is a Populist, determined to keep alive the Dickensian tradition that revels in colorful set pieces...and teaches moral lessons.'--The New York Times  The opening sentence of John Irving's breakout novel, The World According to Garp, signals the start of sexual violence, which becomes increasingly political. 'Garp's mother, Jenny Fields, was arrested in Boston in 1942 for wounding a man in a movie theater.' Jenny is an unmarried nurse; she becomes a single mom and a feminist leader, beloved but polarizing. Her son, Garp, is less beloved, but no less polarizing.  From the tragicomic tone of its first sentence to its mordantly funny last line--'we are all terminal cases'--The World According to Garp maintains a breakneck pace. The subject of sexual hatred--of intolerance of sexual minorities and differences--runs the gamut of 'lunacy and sorrow.' Winner of the National Book Award, Garp is a comedy with forebodings of doom. In more than thirty languages, in more than forty countries--with more than ten million copies in print--Garp is the precursor of John Irving's later protest novels.

Title: War Before the War: Fugitive Slaves and the Struggle for America's Soul from the Revolution to the Civil War

Summary:
“Excellent . . . stunning.” —Ta-Nehisi Coates The devastating story of how fugitive slaves drove the nation to Civil War A New York Times Notable Book Selection * Winner of the Mark Lynton History Prize* Winner of the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award * A New York Times Critics' Best Book  For decades after its founding, America was really two nations—one slave, one free. There were many reasons why this composite nation ultimately broke apart, but the fact that enslaved black people repeatedly risked their lives to flee their masters in the South in search of freedom in the North proved that the 'united' states was actually a lie. Fugitive slaves exposed the contradiction between the myth that slavery was a benign institution and the reality that a nation based on the principle of human equality was in fact a prison-house in which millions of Americans had no rights at all. By awakening northerners to the true nature of slavery, and by enraging southerners who demanded the return of their human 'property,' fugitive slaves forced the nation to confront the truth about itself. By 1850, with America on the verge of collapse, Congress reached what it hoped was a solution—the notorious Compromise of 1850, which required that fugitive slaves be returned to their masters. Like so many political compromises before and since, it was a deal by which white Americans tried to advance their interests at the expense of black Americans. Yet the Fugitive Slave Act, intended to preserve the Union, in fact set the nation on the path to civil war. It divided not only the American nation, but also the hearts and minds of Americans who struggled with the timeless problem of when to submit to an unjust law and when to resist. The fugitive slave story illuminates what brought us to war with ourselves and the terrible legacies of slavery that are with us still.

Title: Principles of Political Economy, and Taxation
Author: David Ricardo
Narrator: Ethan Williams
Format: Unabridged
Length: 10:04:29
Language: English
Release date: 03-15-2023
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Business & Economics

Summary:
'The Principles of Political Economy, and Taxation' is a book written by David Ricardo, a British economist who lived from 1772 to 1823. First published in 1817, the book is considered a landmark in the development of classical economics, and is one of the most influential works in the field. In the book, Ricardo lays out his theories of economic rent, labor value, and comparative advantage. He argues that economic rent, which is the difference between the value of a resource and its production cost, is the main source of wealth in an economy. He also discusses the relationship between labor and value, and how labor contributes to the creation of wealth. Ricardo's most famous contribution to economics is his theory of comparative advantage, which argues that countries should specialize in producing goods for which they have a comparative advantage, even if they could produce other goods more efficiently. This theory has had a profound impact on international trade policy. 'The Principles of Political Economy, and Taxation' was controversial in its time, and Ricardo's ideas were met with criticism and opposition. However, his work has had a lasting impact on the field of economics, and is still studied and debated today.

Summary:
The Lightning Thief meets the Story Thieves series in this middle grade fantasy inspired by Hispanic folklore, legends, and myths from the Iberian Peninsula and Central and South America. Charlie Hernández has always been proud of his Latin American heritage. He loves the culture, the art, and especially the myths. Thanks to his abuela's stories, Charlie possesses an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the monsters and ghouls who have spent the last five hundred years haunting the imaginations of children all across the Iberian Peninsula, as well as Central and South America. And even though his grandmother sometimes hinted that the tales might be more than mere myth, Charlie's always been a pragmatist. Even barely out of diapers, he knew the stories were just make-believe—nothing more than intricately woven fables meant to keep little kids from misbehaving. But when Charlie begins to experience freaky bodily manifestations—ones all too similar to those described by his grandma in his favorite legend—he is suddenly swept up in a world where the mythical beings he's spent his entire life hearing about seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Hispanic folklore and into his life. And even stranger, they seem to know more about him than he knows about himself. Soon, Charlie finds himself in the middle of an ancient battle between La Liga, a secret society of legendary mythological beings sworn to protect the Land of the Living, and La Mano Negra (a.k.a. the Black Hand), a cabal of evil spirits determined to rule mankind. With only the help of his lifelong crush, Violet Rey, and his grandmother's stories to guide him, Charlie must navigate a world where monsters and brujas rule and things he couldn't possibly imagine go bump in the night. That is, if he has any hope of discovering what's happening to him and saving his missing parents (oh, and maybe even the world). No pressure, muchacho. Includes a PDF of the Book’s Glossary

Resumen:
Quienquiera que seas. Creas lo que creas. Todo está a punto de cambiar.   La asombrosa y sorprendente nueva novela de autor de suspense más popular del mundo. Bilbao, España Robert Langdon, profesor de simbología e iconografía religiosa de Harvard, llega al ultramoderno Museo Guggenheim Bilbao para presenciar un importante anuncio —la revelación de un descubrimiento que “cambiará la historia de la ciencia para siempre”. El anfitrión del evento esa noche es Edmond Kirsch, un billonario y futurista de cuarenta años cuyos deslumbrantes inventos tecnológicos y audaces predicciones lo han convertido en una figura de renombre a nivel mundial. Kirsch, quien hace dos décadas fue uno de los primeros alumnos de Langdon en Harvard, está a punto de revelar un asombroso hallazgo... que dará la respuesta a dos preguntas fundamentales de la existencia humana. Tras el comienzo del evento, Langdon y cientos de invitados se encuentran cautivados por una presentación totalmente original, que  —Langdon luego comprenderá— será mucho más polémica de lo que jamás se imaginó. Pero la función, que ha sido meticulosamente orquestada, de pronto irrumpe en caos y el valioso descubrimiento de Kirsch está al borde de ser perdido para siempre. Frente a una inminente amenaza, Langdon se ve obligado a escapar desesperadamente de Bilbao. A su lado está Ambra Vidal, la elegante directora del museo que trabajó con Kirsch en la organización del provocativo evento. Juntos huyen a Barcelona y emprenden la peligrosa búsqueda de la clave encriptada que revelará el secreto de Kirsch. A través de los oscuros pasillos de la historia oculta y la religión extrema, Langdon y Vidal deben eludir a un atormentado enemigo cuyo interminable poder parece emanar del propio Palacio Real de España... No se detendrá ante nada para silenciar a Edmond Kirsch. En un recorrido marcado por el arte moderno y los símbolos enigmáticos, Langdon y Vidal descubrirán pistas que finalmente los pondrán cara a cara con el sorprendente descubrimiento de Kirsch... y la asombrosa verdad que nos ha eludido a todos desde hace mucho tiempo.   Origen es la novela más brillante y entretenida de Dan Brown hasta la fecha.  ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A #1 New York Times Bestseller from the author of The Da Vinci Code.   Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist, and one of Langdon’s first students.

Title: Crisis of Truth And Meaning, Recovering Soul In Times Of Change
Author: Michael Meade
Narrator: Justine Willis Toms
Format: Unabridged
Length: 0:57:21
Language: English
Release date: 10-15-2018
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Non-Fiction, World Religions, Social Science

Summary:
Through the art of storytelling, Meade shares: “The key aspect of soul is its depth. . . . It is the descending, the deepening part . . It’s the roots going further down as opposed to up towards the heavens . . .Soul goes towards diversity and multiplicity like the roots of a forest or the secretly connected life of trees. Soul is the connective tissue of life.” He goes on to describe that humankind has always experienced opposition, but in these days that opposition has left empty the middle way, where imagination should be. He suggests by the telling of the story of “The Golden Repair” that we can heal the multiple cracks in the world by finding our own gifts, our own ways to work meaningfully in the world, and then consider pouring our gold into the cracks of the world. He describes these days in which we are living as the “time of impossible tasks” and says, “We have to tap into the deep understanding of the human soul, one image of which is the wise elder. Not the older, but the elder who is refusing to die in a way that isn’t meaningful. As soon as the elders awaken they’re naturally connected to the youth who are looking for the great dream and the imagination of the future.” This deep dialogue is rich with metaphors that bring a sharp focus to imaginative healing possibilities for these threshold times.

Title: Precognition is Real

Narrator: Justine Willis Toms
Format: Unabridged
Length: 0:57:21
Language: English
Release date: 10-12-2018
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Health & Wellness, Naturopathy & New Age

Summary:
According to today’s conventional scientific wisdom, time flows strictly forward - from the past to the future through the present. We can remember the past, and we can predict the future based on the past (albeit imperfectly), but we can’t perceive the future. However, there are those scientists who are studying and performing repeatable experiments to demonstrate that precognition, the ability to perceive the future, is possible. One such scientist is our guest today Julia Mossbridge, who is researching and collecting data on the phenomena of precognition. She says, “We don’t know how precognition works. What we know is that statistically, on average, people unconsciously can get information about future events and we know that there are certain people who are really good at consciously getting information about future events and that’s what we know.” She has devoted her life to the empirical study and research that reveals that sensing the future is possible. She also has set up an extensive website that provides practical tools and techniques you can use to develop your own powers of precognition. (hosted by Justine Willis Toms)

Title: Theory of Moral Sentiments
Author: Adam Smith
Narrator: Ethan Williams
Format: Unabridged
Length: 5:18:36
Language: English
Release date: 03-15-2023
Publisher: Findaway Voices
Genres: Non-Fiction, Philosophy

Summary:
'The Theory of Moral Sentiments' is a book written by Adam Smith, a Scottish philosopher and economist who lived from 1723 to 1790. First published in 1759, the book is considered one of the most important works in the field of moral philosophy. In the book, Smith explores the nature of morality and the role of sympathy and empathy in human interactions. He argues that human beings are naturally inclined to feel sympathy for others, and that this sympathy forms the basis of moral judgments. He also discusses the concept of the 'impartial spectator,' an imagined observer who helps us to judge the morality of our own actions. Smith's ideas in 'The Theory of Moral Sentiments' have had a profound impact on fields beyond moral philosophy, including economics and political theory. In his later work, 'The Wealth of Nations,' Smith developed his ideas on the nature of markets and the division of labor, which have become foundational concepts in modern economics. Overall, 'The Theory of Moral Sentiments' is a key work in the development of Western moral philosophy, and is still widely studied and debated today.

Title: Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts.

Language: English
Release date: 10-09-2018

Summary:
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Brené Brown has taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong, and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers, and culture shifters, she’s showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead. Don’t miss the five-part Max docuseries Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart! ONE OF BLOOMBERG’S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don’t pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don’t see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don’t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it’s necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we’re choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we’re scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can’t do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture? In Dare to Lead, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love. Brown writes, “One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It’s learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It’s why we’re here.” Whether you’ve read Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or you’re new to Brené Brown’s work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.
