  The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 439min

  A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism exposes how the FBI has, under the guise of engaging in counterterrorism since 9/11, built a network of more than 15,000 informants whose primary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror. An outgrowth of Trevor Aaronson's work as an investigative reporting fellow at the University of California, Berkeley, which culminated in an award-winning cover story in Mother Jones magazine, The Terror Factory reveals shocking information about the criminals, con men, and liars the FBI uses as paid informants - including the story of an accused murderer who has become one of the Bureau's most prolific terrorism snitches - as well as documenting the extreme methods the FBI uses to ensnare Muslims in terrorist plots, which are in reality conceived and financed by the FBI. The book also offers unprecedented detail into how the FBI has transformed from a reactive law enforcement agency to a proactive counterterrorism organization that traps hapless individuals in manufactured terrorist plots in order to justify the $3 billion it spends every year fighting terrorism. ungekürzt.

  Does Capitalism Have a Future? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 550min

  In Does Capitalism Have a Future?, a global quintet of distinguished scholars cut their way through to the question of whether our capitalist system can survive in the medium run. Despite the current gloom, conventional wisdom still assumes that there is no real alternative to capitalism. The authors argue that this generalization is a mistaken outgrowth of the optimistic nineteenth-century claim that human history ascends through stages to an enlightened equilibrium of liberal capitalism. All major historical systems have broken down in the end, and in the modern epoch several cataclysmic events-notably the French revolution, World War I, and the collapse of the Soviet bloc-came to pass when contemporary political elites failed to calculate the consequences of the processes they presumed to govern. At present, none of our governing elites and very few intellectuals can fathom a systemic collapse in the coming decades. While the book's contributors arrive at different conclusions, they are in constant dialogue with one another, and they construct a relatively seamless-if open-ended-whole.Written by five of world's most respected scholars of global historical trends, this ambitious book asks the most important of questions: Are we on the cusp of a radical world historical shift? ungekürzt.

  75 Secrets of Following Jesus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 420min

  Tim Timmons - After writing 14 best-selling books, speaking on the largest secular platforms nationally, and founding one of the early mega-Churches, Jesus apprehended Tim and Diana's hearts to walk with Him. Tim became tired of talking so much about Jesus, and had a deep desire to know Jesus and follow Him. Tim said, "it's the toughest thing I've ever set out to do!" One of the early expressions of walking with Jesus, and with other followers of Jesus, was a daily podcast and blog. Seven years ago, Tim began broadcasting the daily messages, Monday through Friday. He recounts, "these dailies were an outgrowth of what Diana and I were learning and discussing every day of this Jesus journey." Today, these podcasts and blogs are echoing into more than 40 countries. Tim expresses, "the daily feedback we get is so encouraging, from Pasadena to Pakistan." 75 Secrets of Following Jesus is another series straight out of Timmons' daily blogs. "I was challenged by a young entrepreneur to give him a short list of what it means to follow Jesus. Two days later, I was flying out to Washington, DC and began listing out what I felt was most important to know in following Jesus. Well, I arrived at 67 principles and then rounded them off at 75." This is a rich study! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim Timmons. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/013269/bk_acx0_013269_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  The Life & Times of Beethoven: The First Angry Man, Hörbuch, Digital, 319min

  In The Life & Times of Beethoven, celebrated composer and music historian Professor Robert Greenberg of San Francisco Performances gives you a unique perspective on a musical genius the likes of which the world had never seen before - or since. Blending biography, history, and music appreciation, these 10 lectures portray Beethoven’s extraordinary (and still modern-sounding) music as a direct outgrowth of his life, environment, and interior emotional landscape. What makes Beethoven’s anger so special is that he was the first composer to portray his own raw (sometimes even violent) emotions directly in his music. As a result, for more than 200 years, works like his later quartets, his Hammerklavier sonata, and his Symphony No. 9, have moved, touched, and sometimes even frightened listeners in a manner almost primal. Professor Greenberg lays bare the links between Beethoven’s life and his incredible output of music. Listeners will learn:How the crisis involving Beethoven’s hearing became a catalyst for his musical creativity and originality, How Beethoven’s infatuation with Napoleon helped him change the language of Western music, How Beethoven’s “Heroic Music” helped the composer symbolically overcome his pain and unhappiness, How six factors contributed to Beethoven’s crushing fall from popular grace in 1815, How Beethoven revolutionized the genre of string quartets during the last two years of his compositional life, and much more!These lectures give an unforgettable perspective of an angry, alienated composer, who, nevertheless, translated personal defeats into musical triumphs.

  The Depths: The Evolutionary Origins of the Depression Epidemic , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 267min

  Nearly every depressed person is assured by doctors, well-meaning friends and family, the media, and ubiquitous advertisements that the underlying problem is a chemical imbalance. Such a simple defect should be fixable, yet despite all of the resources that have been devoted to finding a pharmacological solution, depression remains stubbornly widespread. Why are we losing this fight? In this humane and illuminating challenge to defect models of depression, psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg argues that depression is a particularly severe outgrowth of our natural capacity for emotion. In other words, it is a low mood gone haywire. Drawing on recent developments in the science of mood - and his own harrowing depressive experience as a young adult - Rottenberg explains depression in evolutionary terms, showing how its dark pull arises from adaptations that evolved to help our ancestors ensure their survival. Moods, high and low, evolved to compel us to more efficiently pursue rewards. While this worked for our ancestors, our modern environment - in which daily survival is no longer a sole focus - makes it all too easy for low mood to slide into severe, long-lasting depression. Weaving together experimental and epidemiological research, clinical observations, and the voices of individuals who have struggled with depression, The Depths offers a bold new account of why depression endures - and makes a strong case for de-stigmatizing this increasingly common condition. In so doing, Rottenberg offers hope in the form of his own and other patients’ recovery, and points the way toward new paths for treatment. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Dixon.

  Technocracy: The Hard Road to World Order , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 363min

  In 1974, Trilateral Commission member and academic Richard Gardner wrote an article "The Hard Road to World Order" for Foreign Affairs magazine, predicting the future of the Commission's self-proclaimed new international economic order. Gardner spoke of an "end-run around national sovereignty", a "booming, buzzing confusion", and building it from the "bottom up" rather than attempting an "old-fashioned frontal assault".After almost 45 years, it is time to examine the record. In Technocracy: The Hard Road to World Order, Wood traces the steps and developments that led to the United Nations' establishment of sustainable development goals as an outgrowth of historic technocracy from the 1930s.UN programs such as 2030 Agenda, New Urban Agenda, and the Paris Climate Agreement are all working together to displace capitalism and free enterprise as the world's principal economic system. As a resource-based economic system, sustainable development intends to take control of all resources, production, and consumption on Earth, leaving all of its inhabitants to be micromanaged by a scientific dictatorship. Topics covered in this audiobook include the devolution of federal governments combined with the rise of global smart cities.Tools are examined, like ubiquitous surveillance, collaborative governance, public-private partnerships, reflexive law, fintech, including cryptocurrencies, and the drive toward a cashless society. The spiritual aspect of sustainable development is also explored as an important component of manipulation. Looking underneath the cover of globalization, Wood shatters the false narrative of a promised utopia and exposes the true nature of the deception used to promote this new economic order. Those elite who hate the bedrock of American liberty and its time-tested constitution have pulled out all the stops to destroy both, and it's time for citizens to stand up to reject them. As always, Wood c ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patrick M. Wood. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/162307/bk_acx0_162307_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  The Future of the American Negro , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 255min

  Booker Taliaferro Washington (1856-1915) was an African American political leader, educator and author. He was one of the dominant figures in African American history in the United States from 1890 to1915. Born into slavery in Franklin County, Virginia, at the age of 9, he was freed and moved with his family to West Virginia, where he learned to read and write while working in manual labor jobs. He later trained as a teacher, and in 1881 was named the first leader of the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. The Future of the American Negro was written to put more definite and permanent form the ideas regarding the condition of the negro. Booker T. Washington, a prominent African American leader, educator and author, articulates the importance of Industrial education. He emphasized the importance of the development of the Negro in hand and heart training, which would provide the solid foundation necessary to attain the highest form of citizenship. This volume is the outgrowth of a series of articles written to enlighten readers on the doctrine of industrial education that would address the mistakes of the reconstruction period. Booker T. Washington expresses arguments through sound reason in an impassioned plea to resolve the problems of increased crime, ignorance, discrimination and debilitating debt crippling the black race. He substantiates his case with inspiring examples of former students of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute who overcame adversity to achieve their dreams. Listeners will develop a greater understanding of the horrific outcomes of slavery, the colossal errors of the reconstruction period, the extreme levels of poverty and ignorance, the failures of government, and the instability of industry in the south. In the midst of these problems, Booker provides a remedy, which in many respects is still relevant to the future of the American Negro. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrew L. Barnes.
