  The Ice Cream Cone of Learning, S3 Edition: The Brain, Enrichment, and the Power of Audio Books , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 158min

  I can teach your child to read by teaching them how to make ice cream. Real ice cream. No, really. Caution! This is highly enriched material! What is the difference between reading versus literacy? An obsessive emphasis on the development of mechanical reading skills, like phonics, is often counterproductive, leading to many bored students and frustrated parents, and very little reading. Audiobooks offer an effective alternative route toward improved literacy for students struggling with traditional reading instruction. By emphasizing a love of story, immersion into language, and active engagement with the content students develop a greater total literacy which makes learning the tiny subskill of reading very much easier, though, ironically, of ever diminishing value when compared to the greater expansion of literacy. Raw reading broccoli into tasty literacy ice cream. Based on a fresh interpretation of Edgar Dale's Cone of Experience model, The Ice Cream Cone of Learning leverages the concept of enrichment to show you how to take raw reading broccoli, and turn it into an endless supply of tasty literacy ice cream. Experience the enrichment. It just might change your child's entire life. Imagine if your child enjoyed books as much as eating ice cream. This book can show you how to make that dream a reality. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Theodore Reynolds. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/075805/bk_acx0_075805_sample.mp3.

  Last Resort: The Financial Crisis and the Future of Bailouts , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 549min

  The bailouts during the recent financial crisis enraged the public. They felt unfair - and counterproductive: people who take risks must be allowed to fail. If we reward firms that make irresponsible investments, costing taxpayers billions of dollars, aren't we encouraging them to continue to act irresponsibly, setting the stage for future crises? And beyond the ethics of it was the question of whether the government even had the authority to bail out failing firms like Bear Stearns and AIG.  The answer, according to Eric A. Posner, is no. The federal government freely and frequently violated the law with the bailouts - but it did so in the public interest. An understandable lack of sympathy toward Wall Street has obscured the fact that bailouts have happened throughout economic history and are unavoidable in any modern, market-based economy. And they're actually good. Contrary to popular belief, the financial system cannot operate properly unless the government stands ready to bail out banks and other firms. Taking up the common objections raised by both right and left, Posner argues that future bailouts will occur. Acknowledging that inevitability, we can and must look ahead and carefully assess our policy options before we need them.

  Restraint: A New Foundation for U.S. Grand Strategy: Cornell Studies in Security Affairs , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 570min

  The United States, Barry R. Posen argues in Restraint, has grown incapable of moderating its ambitions in international politics. Since the collapse of Soviet power, it has pursued a grand strategy that he calls "liberal hegemony", one that Posen sees as unnecessary, counterproductive, costly, and wasteful. Written for policymakers and observers alike, Restraint explains precisely why this grand strategy works poorly and then provides a carefully designed alternative grand strategy and an associated military strategy and force structure. In contrast to the failures and unexpected problems that have stemmed from America's consistent overreaching, Posen makes an urgent argument for restraint in the future use of US military strength. After setting out the political implications of restraint as a guiding principle, Posen sketches the appropriate military forces and posture that would support such a strategy. He works with a deliberately constrained notion of grand strategy and, even more important, of national security (which he defines as including sovereignty, territorial integrity, power position, and safety). His alternative for military strategy, which Posen calls "command of the commons", focuses on protecting US global access through naval, air, and space power, while freeing the United States from most of the relationships that require the permanent stationing of US forces overseas. The book is published by Cornell University Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim R. Sartor. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/099385/bk_acx0_099385_sample.mp3.

  Freedom Flyers: The Tuskegee Airmen of World War II  , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 562min

  In this inspiring account of the Tuskegee Airmen - the country's first African American military pilots - historian J. Todd Moye captures the challenges and triumphs of these brave aviators in their own words, drawing on more than 800 interviews recorded for the National Park Service's Tuskegee Airmen Oral History Project. Denied the right to fully participate in the U.S. war effort alongside whites at the beginning of World War II, African Americans - spurred on by black newspapers and civil rights organizations such as the NAACP - compelled the prestigious Army Air Corps to open its training programs to black pilots, despite the objections of its top generals. Thousands of young men came from every part of the country to Tuskegee, Alabama, in the heart of the segregated South, to enter the program, which expanded in 1943 to train multi-engine bomber pilots in addition to fighter pilots. By the end of the war, Tuskegee Airfield had become a small city populated by black mechanics, parachute packers, doctors, and nurses. Together, they helped prove that racial segregation of the fighting forces was so inefficient as to be counterproductive to the nation's defense. Freedom Flyers brings to life the legacy of a determined, visionary cadre of African American airmen who proved their capabilities and patriotism beyond question, transformed the armed forces - formerly the nation's most racially polarized institution - and jump-started the modern struggle for racial equality. ungekürzt.

  Overcoming Eating Disorders: A Simple Guide to Causes, Prevention and Treatment of Eating Disorders in Athletes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 40min

  Eating disorders and body-image problems are quite common among athletes, and this may be a pointer to a bad issue that is often overlooked. Eating disorders have been discovered but most times kept a secret in most sports. It may be undiagnosed or concealed merely due to the competitive nature of the games. Athletes may engage in harmful nutritional practices, strict diets, or dietary supplements. Purging, restrictive diets, and binging have devastating impacts on the general well-being of such people.

If left untreated or overlooked, it can be life-threatening. Just like these problems are found in the general populace, so, too, does it affect a significant number of athletes. This audiobook aims to bring to the fore simple and easy-to-practice diagnostic practices for both the athlete, coaches, and people around high-performance athletes who are often under significant stress to up their output levels. Are you an athlete with symptoms of an eating disorder and are keeping it under wraps?
