My Fuel: IMNarcEvil, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 35min
I am the narcissist. I do everything that I can to gather fuel. I have different types of fuel, and I only allow people into my life who I can get fuel from. If I don’t think something or someone can continue to supply me with the types of fuel that I need, I will devalue, discard, or destroy them. Fuel is the reason that I live, work, and thrive. Fuel is the only thing that drives all of my motivation, ambition, and strategy. I am so busy trying to get this fuel that I am addicted to that I can never achieve happiness or joy just from existing in the world. I was never taught as a child that I can self-soothe or be at peace. I was taught that I must stay busy and collect fuel for myself and for those who are codependent upon me (namely, my narcissistic parent(s)). Fuel drives my criminal activity. It drives my lawsuits and court cases. It drives my work and education choices. It drives my choices in women and cars. It drives my decision to procreate. It drives my decisions to help other people. Without adequate fuel, I will refuse to do anything at all. I will lose all motivation and ambition to do anything at all. I will lay around placating myself and also feeling sorry for myself at the very same time. Email I.M. Narcissist at IMNarcEvil@gmail.com with your questions! Check out other I.M.

Genesis: The Old Testament 1, Hörbuch, Digital, 254min
The Book of Genesis opens the Hebrew Bible with the story of creation. God, a spirit hovering over an empty, watery void, creates the world by speaking into the darkness and calling into being light, sky, land, vegetation, and living creatures over the course of six days. Each day, he pauses to pronounce his works "good" (1:4). On the sixth day, God declares his intention to make a being in his "own image," and he creates humankind (1:26). He fashions a man out of dust and forms a woman out of the man's rib. God places the two people, Adam and Eve, in the idyllic Garden of Eden, encouraging them to procreate and to enjoy the created world fully, and forbidding them to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Christopher Glyn became a Christian at the age of 21, giving up a promising theatrical career in the U.K. to engage in full time missionary work. In the 35 years since then, he has been very active in the field of Christian radio, primarily on the Asia and African continents. "For years it has been my dream to record an audio version of the Holy Bible, combining my training as an actor with my love for God's Word. I am happy now to have the opportunity to do so. I started the very long process of recording the Bible 3 years ago and by the summer of 2011, the entire Bible was finished. I pray with my whole heart that these readings will be a blessing and an inspiration to many. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Glyn.

History of Korea , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 45min
With a history so vast, it is difficult to preserve the traditions and cultures from the olden times, yet Korea seems to have maintained it despite the many invasions and situations that it went through. Nationalism and patriotism is reflected in all the Koreans. Every country has their own mythology and belief of how their people came to be, and the Koreans have theirs too. The Korean mythology speaks of a demigod Hwan Woong who came down on earth on Taebak Mountain, which is now the Gangwon-do Province in South Korea. The demigod met a bear and tiger living in a cave who wished to become humans. The demigod asked them to eat 20 cloves of garlic and refrain from sunlight for 100 days if they wished to become man. The tiger failed the test, as it couldn't withstand the dark, but after 21 days, the bear became a woman. Since there was no one for the woman to procreate, Hwan Woong turned himself into a man, temporarily creating the Korean race. Maybe this is why the Koreans love garlic and use it extensively in their cooking. While the mythology seems too fun to hear, the history of Korea speaks of something else. Korea happens to be one of the most culturally homogeneous countries in the world. They have very few physical and cultural differences amongst them. Koreans have great respect for their ancestors and elders. Confucian culture dominates the area and it is seen in other factors of life as well, where age and marital status of a person gives him or her certain seniority. The Koreans are simple people today with an extensive history of their ancestors. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrea Giordani.

Breath of Desire: Rising Dragons Series, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 138min, (USK 18)
Golden dragon, Aurik, wants the man he loves to find happiness, even if he can't be with him when he finds it. He and his twin sister made a pact to share the human, Dimitri's affection. But the enigmatic Dragon Council isn't quite so content with the trio's situation. When Aurik receives a decree that he find a female human mate or be treated like an Unbound and forced into servitude, he despairs of ever holding on to true happiness. He doesn't want a human woman. He wants Dimitri, but Court dragons like Aurik are expected to procreate or lose their rank and forfeit whatever riches they own. Thea is still healing from the tragic loss of her lover, Alex, and the alienation of his twin brother Dimitri, who she also shared an intimate connection with. Finally close to rebuilding her life, her plans are thrown into chaos yet again when she receives an unexpected call from Dimitri. But he's not calling to reconcile. He's requesting her help with a mysterious research project he refuses to discuss except in person and promising that she will be well compensated. Resolving not to let their past ghosts interfere with the project, she agrees. She is unprepared when she meets Dimitri's new lovers, a pair of twins whose beauty dazzles her, and whose allure entices her into a new and amazing world beyond her imagining. Except one of them seems oddly distant and unreceptive to her interest. The shadow of Alex's death begins to fade as Thea learns to find happiness and pleasure again, but the one person she wishes she could find a deeper connection with retreats further with each passing day. Can she get through to Aurik before he resigns himself to exile? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ava Lucas. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/100297/bk_acx0_100297_sample.mp3.

Alien Revelation: The Arathians Series, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 522min, (USK 18)
Heralded as the saviors of the Arathian species for their ability to procreate with the infertile Arathians, Earthers are honored citizens on Arath. While his son and extended family seem to be enjoying their new lives on the alien planet, the young widower, Conall MacLeod, feels like he doesn’t have a purpose in their extraordinary world. His future is forever changed when he meets an Arathian male and female who make him wish for a second chance at love. But nothing is ever easy… Conall’s self-identity is entrenched in the idea that he’s a monogamous - and heterosexual - man, yet he finds himself unexpectedly lusting after two people, one of them, shockingly, male. He can’t deny that he craves things he’s never wanted before, but if he’s ever going to find love again, he must get past his insecurities and rewrite his own self-image. Onalee Cormikan is the co-heiress to Cormikan Industries, the leading medical research firm on Arath, which is devoted to finding a cure for their infertility. Considered reclusive by her peers after the tragic death of her parents, she’s content to support her older brother in the search for a cure... until she meets Brogan, Conall, and his family. They make her yearn to step out of her possessive brother’s shadow, and explore what - and who - she wants in life. Brogan is a First Lieutenant of the Arathian Royal Guard, entrusted with the protection of Arath’s soon-to-be monarchs. Solely dedicated to his job, he never expected to find a future outside his passion for his work. Yet Conall’s internal struggles seem to stand in the way of their happy future together as a trio. It’s a good thing Brogan likes a challenge. Conall’s struggle with his sexuality isn’t the only problem facing the threesome. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lessa Lamb.

Denial: Self-Deception, False Beliefs, and the Origins of the Human Mind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min
The history of science abounds with momentous theories that disrupted conventional wisdom and yet were eventually proven true. Ajit Varki and Danny Brower's "Mind over Reality" theory is poised to be one such idea - a concept that runs counter to commonly held notions about human evolution but that may hold the key to understanding why humans evolved as we did, leaving all other related species far behind. At a chance meeting in 2005, Brower, a geneticist, posed an unusual idea to Varki that he believed could explain the origins of human uniqueness among the world's species: Why is there no humanlike elephant or humanlike dolphin, despite millions of years of evolutionary opportunity? Why is it that humans alone can understand the minds of others? Haunted by their encounter, Varki tried years later to contact Brower only to discover that he had died unexpectedly. Inspired by an incomplete manuscript Brower left behind, Denial presents a radical new theory on the origins of our species. It was not, the authors argue, a biological leap that set humanity apart from other species, but a psychological one: namely, the uniquely human ability to deny reality in the face of inarguable evidence - including the willful ignorance of our own inevitable deaths. The awareness of our own mortality could have caused anxieties that resulted in our avoiding the risks of competing to procreate - an evolutionary dead-end. Humans therefore needed to evolve a mechanism for overcoming this hurdle: the denial of reality. As a consequence of this evolutionary quirk we now deny any aspects of reality that are not to our liking - we smoke cigarettes, eat unhealthy foods, and avoid exercise, knowing these habits are a prescription for an early death. And so what has worked to establish our species could be our undoing if we continue to deny the consequences of unrealistic approaches to everything from personal health to financial risk-taking to climate ungekürzt.

Control
* FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF HOW TO ARGUE WITH A RACIST *Throughout history, people have sought to improve society by reducing suffering, eliminating disease or enhancing desirable qualities in their children. But this wish goes hand in hand with the desire to impose control over who can marry, who can procreate and who is permitted to live. In the Victorian era, in the shadow of Darwin's ideas about evolution, a new full-blooded attempt to impose control over our unruly biology began to grow in the clubs, salons and offices of the powerful. It was enshrined in a political movement that bastardised science, and for sixty years enjoyed bipartisan and huge popular support.Eugenics was vigorously embraced in dozens of countries. It was also a cornerstone of Nazi ideology, and forged a path that led directly to the gates of Auschwitz. But the underlying ideas are not merely historical. The legacy of eugenics persists in our language and literature, from the words 'moron' and 'imbecile' to the themes of some of our greatest works of culture. Today, with new gene editing techniques, very real conversations are happening - including in the heart of British government - about tinkering with the DNA of our unborn children, to make them smarter, fitter, stronger.CONTROL tells the story of attempts by the powerful throughout history to dictate reproduction and regulate the interface of breeding and society. It is an urgently needed examination that unpicks one of the defining and most destructive ideas of the twentieth century. To know this history is to inoculate ourselves against its being repeated.- Shop: buecher
