Is It Possible to Live 100 Years? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 19min
Booka Audiobooks presents the audiobook best seller from author Henry Osal, Is it Possible to Live 100 Years? - lifestyle advice for living a more satisfying life, trying to increase our longevity naturally. Overcoming barriers to longevity that once seemed impossible are becoming more common every day. Scientific advances, particularly in the area of health, and better nutrition are enabling human beings to increase their life expectancy significantly. But the reasons that allow some people to prevail for over a hundred years of existence remain largely a mystery. After a year of research, this brief manual, which is not intended to be empirical or to make firm pledges, recommends a series of habits and tips collected from eminent scientists and interviews with people who have far exceeded the barrier of a century. I hope you find this as exciting to listen to as collecting this interesting information has been for me, as I belong to a family with multiple cases of extreme longevity. ungekürzt.

Scandal!: Amazing Tales of Scandals that Shocked the World and Shaped Modern Business , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 681min
Greed, cupidity, corruption, and a kind of gluttony so outrageous that it's laughable have always been part of business. Consider, for example, the case of the Swedish match king. At one time, Ivar Kreuger, manufactured almost half of the world's matches, with monopolies in 16 countries. He had so much money that he was a reliable lender to many countries, becoming known as the 'saviour of Europe' for his willingness to give aid to banks crippled by World War I. At the time of the 1929 market crash, his was the most widely held stock in the world. When he killed himself three years later, the whole thing went up in flames. The company's debts exceeded those of the entire Swedish government, as it was based on a gigantic pyramid scheme. Other examples in this book will include the story of Enron, of which "Fortune Magazine" was the first to break the news. Orange County bankcruptcy, Sotheby's and Al Taubman, and many more... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dennis Holland.

General Patton: The Inspirational Life Story: Strategist, Olympian, Soldier, and American Patriot , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min
No one is remembered quite like General Patton for their strength, ferocious determination, skill, severity, and leadership. With a near lifetime in the military with unmatchable experience, Patton not only showed strict discipline and did what was asked of him, he exceeded all expectations and went above and beyond the call of duty. He lived to fight, teach, and succeed. Such gusto solidified Patton's place as one of the greatest and most successful figures in military history. Outspoken, strict, harsh, and highly opinionated, it is no wonder why Patton's voice cannot be silenced even decades after his death. He was a man who demanded attention and cooperation. Here is a preview of what you'll learn: The event that brought General Patton to the 1912 Olympics Why General Patton decided on a military career How General Patton became one of the world's strategic thinkers in battle General Patton's personal trials and tribulations How General Patton mysteriously died George Patton and World War I and II ungekürzt.

Mind to Mind: Ashton Ford #3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 472min
Ashton Ford has been a spy, a naval officer, a scholar and an adventurer. His knowledge of cryptology and philosophy is exceeded only by his capability with a handgun. But, the best thing about Ashton Ford is hardly so conventional...he has powers. Sometimes, he can see the future. He uses these powers to either make people's lives a lot easier - or a whole lot harder. Ashton Ford is intrigued by a case involving a beautiful silent "Jane Doe" who has been sadistically brutalized. The mute and mysterious woman has no idea who she is, why someone wants her dead, or why the entire left hemisphere of her brain has been surgically removed. There are no handles to the case, except a few satanic symbols, and it is quickly turning into one of the toughest cases Ford has ever attempted. In a race against time, he must reach this woman's silent mind before the evils of a deadly sex cult destroy them both. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gene Engene.

The Checklist Manifesto
The modern world has given us stupendous know-how. Yet avoidable failures continue to plague us in health care, government, the law, the financial industry - in almost every realm of organized activity. And the reason is simple: the volume and complexity of knowledge today has exceeded our ability as individuals to properly deliver it to people - consistently, correctly, safely. We train longer, specialize more, use ever advancing technologies, and still we fail. Atul Gawande makes a compelling argument that we can do better, using the simplest of methods: the lowly checklist. He explains how checklists have made possible some of the most difficult things people do - from flying airplanes to building skyscrapers. He takes us from Austria, where an emergency checklist saved a patient who had spent half an hour underwater, to Michigan, where a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection, and to the flight deck of a crashingplane. Along the way, he reveals what checklists can do, what they cant, and how they could bring about striking improvements in fields well beyond medicine, from disaster recovery to investment banking, to professions and businesses of all kinds.- Shop: buecher

Memories and Adventures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 845min
I have had a life which, for variety and romance, could, I think, hardly be exceeded. I have known what it was to be a poor man and I have known what it was to be fairly affluent. I have sampled every kind of human experience. I have known many of the most remarkable men of my time. I have had a long literary career after a medical training which gave me the MD of Edinburgh....I have traveled as Doctor to a whaler for seven months in the Arctic and afterwards in the West Coast of Africa. I have seen something of three wars: the Sudanese, the South African, and the German. My life has been dotted with adventures of all kinds. Finally, I have been constrained to devote my latter years to telling the world the final result of thirty-six years' study of the occult....Such is the life which I have told in some detail in my Memories and Adventures." - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ungekürzt.
