    A gripping tale of betrayal and counterbetrayal that tells the story of the most enigmatic member of the Cambridge spy ring - Donald Maclean.  Donald Maclean was a star diplomat, an establishment insider and a keeper of some of the West's greatest secrets. He was also a Russian spy, driven by passionately held beliefs, whose betrayal and defection to Moscow reverberated for decades.  Christened ‘Orphan’ by his Russian recruiter, Maclean was the perfect spy and Britain’s most gifted traitor. But as he leaked huge amounts of top-secret intelligence, an international code-breaking operation was rapidly closing in on him. Moments before he was unmasked, Maclean vanished.  Drawing on a wealth of previously classified material, Roland Philipps now tells this story for the first time in full. Philipps unravels Maclean’s character and contradictions: a childhood that was simultaneously liberal and austere; a Cambridge education mixing in Communist circles; a polished diplomat with a tendency to wild binges; a marriage complicated by secrets; an accelerated rise through the Foreign Office and, above all, a gift for deception. Taking us back to the golden age of espionage, A Spy Named Orphan reveals the impact of one of the most dangerous and enigmatic Soviet agents of the 20th century, whose actions heightened the tensions of the Cold War. ungekürzt.

    Russell Horvath seems to have it all, a beautiful supportive girlfriend committed to helping him shed those pesky extra pounds, a screenwriting career poised to take off spearheaded by his best friend and agent, except for the fact that his girlfriend's advice is sounding more and more like a never ending onslaught of criticisms and passive aggressive cut-downs and his agent is less a friend and more a frenemy...if that's even a real word...whose rampant alcoholism and womanizing is becoming harder and harder to justify so it's really no wonder that Russell himself has been hiding a problem. A secret. An addiction.Only it's not so bad right? Because it's not like he's using heroin, cocaine, or "real drugs", he's just eating...a lot...of fast food, late at night, when nobody else is watching, taking increasingly extreme measures to hide his binges from everyone - except there's only so much mouthwash he can gargle to mask the scent of the 5,000 fatty, fried calories he consumed the night before as his girlfriend stares at him with a silent fury brewing behind her placid emerald eyes wondering why in the world the size 46 jeans she just bought him, don't fit anymore?And that's all before the dog gets involved."Robinson's knack for portraying the underbelly of Los Angeles with sensitivity, specificity, and great humor makes FTIY feel simultaneously all too familiar and utterly novel.” (Jess Brownell writer on ABC’s Scandal and the upcoming Bridgerton series for Netflix) ungekürzt.

    WITH AN INTERVIEW RECORDING OF STEVEN TYLER. The no-holds-barred memoir from the legendary Aerosmith frontman has arrived. With tales of debauchery, sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, the Demon of Screamin' describes his highs and lows as lead singer of the biggest rock band in the world. With his raw, sharp-edged vocals, musical versatility and unprecedented song writing skills, Tyler has, as lead singer of Aerosmith, sold millions of records and played sell-out concerts to as many as 450,000 people. Now, at last, he tells his own story, taking us on a wild rollercoaster ride through the bust-ups, binges, orgies, and good old American excess in the jaw-droppingly honest, in-your-face way that only Tyler can. Following a fateful meeting with his 'mutant twin', Joe Perry, in the summer of 1970, Aerosmith was formed…and the rest, as they say, is rock history. They released their first album in 1973, and by 1976 Aerosmith had gone from being nobodies to massive to off the radar, making history as a multi-platinum, chart-topping band. But with great success comes great excess. Nicknamed the Toxic Twins for their insatiable appetite for drugs, booze, and women, Tyler and Perry got caught up in the glamour of self-destruction - smashing each other up with guitars, having seizures, and passing out on stage. As raucous, intoxicating, and edgy as his music, this is the most outrageous rock 'n' roll autobiography of all time. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeremy Davidson, Steven Tyler.

    This is the astounding, true story of the rise and fall of a fast-talking stock hustler, as well as a shocking portrait of the insidious ways the Mob infiltrates and fleeces Wall Street. From outrageous scams to out-of-control strip-club parties, Born to Steal takes you inside the lives of brash young men who flaunt their ignorance of stocks, bonds, and PE ratios even as they become the perfect foot soldiers in a vast campaign to separate honest people from their money. Trading his jeans and T-shirt for a $90 suit, Louis Pasciuto arrived on Wall Street in 1992 to join a "chop house," a crooked brokerage firm set up by a charismatic Mob-connected overlord. Working out of seventeen brokerage firms, Louis sold often worthless or nonexistent stocks to gullible retirees right under the nose of financial regulators. Stuffing his money into a mayonnaise jar - because he didn't have a clue how to invest it - he was quickly making thousands of dollars a day, and ready to strike out on his own. But a shark wanted a piece of Louis's action. Enter Charlie Ricottone, a mobster straight out of The Sopranos, who pummeled people in public, painted his bald spot in private, and was just the advance guard of a money-hungry army of wiseguys. Suddenly Louis's lifestyle - the stripper girlfriend, his looming marriage to an entirely different woman, the Rolexes, Armanis, celebrity friends, orgies, and three-day cocaine binges - was about to go up in smoke. When the violence escalated and the FBI finally stepped in, Louis had to pull off the ultimate heist: join the Feds and steal back his life. Language: English. Narrator: Frank Whaley.

    In October 1994, William Cope Moyers was flat on his back on the floor of an Atlanta crack house. His father, veteran journalist Bill Moyers, had put together a search party while his desperate family waited at home, where he had abandoned them three days earlier. Many times before, his life had unraveled from the effects of marijuana, cocaine, and alcohol binges, but it was his crack addiction and relapse, he remembers, that caused his father to look into the eyes of his firstborn son and utter the words "I hate you."Today, William Cope Moyers has been sober for 12 years. He is the vice president of external affairs at the Hazelden Foundation in Minnesota, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping people recover from alcoholism and other drug addiction. He uses his own experiences to carry the message about addiction and recovery into the public arena, and he reaches out to addicted people and their families who need help.In Broken, Moyers tells the story of a love affair with alcohol and crack cocaine that led him to the brink of death over and over again. A harrowing account, it paints a picture of a young man with every advantage who found himself spiraling into a dark abyss. Battling shame and self-doubt at every turn, the author finally emerges into the clear light of recovery as he dedicates his life to changing the politics of addiction. He urges others like himself to speak out and battle against the stigma that keeps many addicts from seeking recovery. Moyers' story is a missive of hope for millions of Americans struggling with addiction, and an honest and inspiring account that is both wrenching and ultimately redemptive. ungekürzt.

    Bulimia Nervosa and Eating DisorderThe likelihood of the entire medical state of bulimia nervosa continues to be gauged at between one as well as five percent, of females in the high-risk age range of original teens to mid-30's. Additionally, there are a lot more individuals of both sexes, relying on different types of bulimic behavior, perched precariously on the brink of fully-fledged bulimia nervosa.The bulk of bulimia patients get locked right into a vicious cycle of binging as well as purging. A binge can be a frenzied and rapid gorging of massive amounts of foods, or simply eating smaller quantities of food you believe you shouldn't have had. The thing that makes it a binge would be the sensation of not being in command. Binges specifically involve sweets, huge kilojoules items-food usually considered "forbidden", "fattening", or "bad". They frequently happen as reactions to emotions of depression, self-criticism, extreme dieting, or boredom.Binging might result in a frantic attempt to eliminate the meal and stop putting on weight. This particular method of clearing the body of unwanted foods is called purging. Appetite suppressants might additionally be used, along with these usually trap the bulimia sufferer more deeply into the worry cycle. Ironically, purging isn't a highly effective technique of losing or to keep off pounds. For instance, laxatives expel content from the intestines once most or maybe the kilojoules were absorbed. Nearly all instant weight reduction following laxative consumption is a result of loss of fluid, not fat. As you are going to see, purging is a high-risk behavior causing serious medical consequences as well as death. The vicious cycle of dieting-binging-purging will come to rule the life of yours. Eliminating the meals just hastens the hunger created by dieting as well as increases the chance of binging. As each component of the cycle makes one another part inevitable, the entire process bec ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Leah Goodman.
