  Doctor You: Revealing the Science of Self-Healing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 492min

  Examining the overuse of modern medicine and how your body can heal itself. Twenty percent of Americans, half of the elderly British and two-thirds of older Canadians take at least five prescription drugs per day - their lives a nonstop ritual of pill popping and trying to manage side effects. One in 10 people in developed countries takes antidepressants. Millions of boys who can't sit still in school are prescribed methamphetamines. Modern medicine has been overused. Skyrocketing global health-care costs render this overuse of medicine increasingly unaffordable. The wonders of modern medicine have also obscured the body's ability to heal itself. Your body produces its own drugs that can treat pain as well as drugs, cure some joint problems as well as a surgeon and treat most mild depression as well as a psychologist. We've all heard of endorphins, but did you know endorphin literally means 'morphine made by your body'? Besides the body's self-healing abilities, the latest evidence clearly shows that states of mind affect our health. Relaxing, positive thinking and comfortable social environments can all improve our health as much as blockbuster drugs. Written using the latest high-quality conventional evidence, Doctor You arms you with knowledge that will empower you to make the right choices about what drugs to take, what drugs to give your children and when you should let your body do its thing. ungekürzt.

  Legends of the Renaissance: The Life and Legacy of Niccolo Machiavelli , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 79min

  Explains the historical background of Machiavelli's life and the political context within which he wrote The Prince. Discusses lingering controversies surrounding Machiavelli and his work, including whether The Prince was intended as a satire or an effort to spark a rebellion. "The assumptions of the entire Western political tradition from Plato onward were called into question by a generation of radical thinkers, of whom the greatest and most radical was Niccolò Machiavelli." (James Hankins) "No epitaph can match so great a name," reads the inscription on Niccolò Machiavelli's tomb in the church of Santa Croce in Florence. Such praise of the notorious author of The Prince, the "teacher of evil" according to Leo Strauss, may seem misplaced to those with only a passing knowledge of one of history's most famous political philosophers and theorists. Ever since Machiavelli penned his 1513 treatise on princely rule and the politics of reality, a work that infamously advises rulers to abandon virtue and morality when necessary, his name has been synonymous with deceit, duplicity, and amoral pragmatism. In 1559 the text was unsurprisingly registered in the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, the Catholic Church's list of banned books, on the grounds of immorality. Shakespeare dubbed him the "murderous Machiavel" in the 1590s, a mere six decades after his death in 1527. Since then a sinister reputation has posthumously plagued the controversial Florentine, and the accusation of being "Machiavellian", an overused and typically misapplied adjective, is a charge of behaving in a cunning, scheming, and unscrupulous way. But is this depiction of Machiavelli as wicked and immoral accurate? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kelly Rhodes.

  Outlaw: Waylon, Willie, Kris, and the Renegades of Nashville , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 457min

  Waylon Jennings. Willie Nelson. Kris Kristofferson. Three renegade musicians. Three unexpected stars. Three men who changed Nashville and country music forever. By the late 1960s, Nashville, Tennessee, was firmly established as the center of the booming country music industry and home to what was known as the Nashville Sound, characterized by slick production and adherence to an increasingly overused formula. But the city was changing. Young people from all over the country were streaming into the bohemian West End and colliding with three trailblazing artists who would soon rock the foundations of Nashville's music business. Surrounded by the street vibes of the West End's burgeoning underground scene and the outlaw protest tradition of Nashville's unlikely civil rights leaders and antiwar protestors, Waylon, Willie, and Kris began resisting the unspoken rules of Nashville's music-making machine and instead forged their own creative paths. Their music, personal and not easily categorized, was more in the vein of rock acts like the Allman Brothers and Bob Dylan, and it communicated a stark rawness and honesty that would influence artists of all genres for decades to come. Studded with a diverse secondary cast including Johnny Cash, Rodney Crowell, Kinky Friedman, Billy Joe Shaver, and others, Streissguth's new book brings to life an incredible chapter in musical history and reveals for the first time a surprising outlaw zeitgeist in Nashville. Based on extensive research and probing interviews with key players, what emerges is a fascinating glimpse into three of the most legendary artists of our times and the definitive story of how they changed music in Nashville and everywhere. ungekürzt.

  Haunted: Houses, Amusement Parks & Train Stations You’d Be Crazy to Explore...: Unexplained Encounters, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min

  There does not seem to be any shortage of spirits and apparitions in this world, and they do not seem to be limited by time, place or situation. There is of course the standard bearer of haunted locales, the scary “haunted house” on the dead end street of a dark isolated neighborhood, but there are also instances of haunting that take on many more myriad forms than this commonly overused trope might lead you to believe. There are haunted taverns, haunted amusement parks, and even haunted subway systems. These events seem to transcend any kind of label or classification that we attempt to put upon them. Whatever the entities may be that are behind these strange occurrences, it is readily apparent that they can manifest anywhere or anytime completely unhindered by any barrier, physical or otherwise. But if we were to look into these strange hauntings a little bit further we just might find that these frightful specters are just as afraid of us as we are of them. Like some residents of a haunted estate have found that most of the ghosts they encountered were more frightened of them than anything else. The spirits seem genuinely startled when they encounter the living residents of the home as if their mere presence overwhelms them with the sad realization of the lives that they have lost. So these poor lost souls and earthbound spirits are forever relegated to the hallways of homes, the byways of train stations and the cursed grounds of amusement parks.... Sometimes you have to wonder, is it the dead that haunt the living or the living that haunt the dead? Here is a preview of what's inside.... Haunted: Phantoms at Fox Hollow Farms Haunted: The Octagon House Haunting Haunted: The White Eagle Cafe Haunted: Aurora’s Haunted Cat House And much more! ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Tragedy of the Commons: Ideas & Concepts , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 7min

  Learn about the Tragedy of the Commons with iMinds insightful audio knowledge series.The Tragedy of the Commons is a situation in which a jointly-owned resource is overused or destroyed because each person takes more than they would if the resource was privately owned. With each individual acting independently, the combined pressure on the resource exceeds what is in the interests of the community as a whole. The term was coined in 1967 by Garrett Hardin, a biologist from the University of California, in a famous article in the journal Science. According to Hardin, there are some kinds of problems which society cannot resolve through technology, but which instead require a wholesale change in morality and behavior - what we might now call a cultural shift. Hardin used the example of global population growth, which he felt would eventually threaten our ability to survive as a species by placing too much pressure on the environment. Regardless of how advanced our technologies become, unrestrained population growth will ultimately result in widespread shortages of basic economic resources like land and water. Hardin’s insight has since been applied to many kinds of environmental problems, including over-fishing, over-irrigation, and pollution.

  'Hello', Lied the Agent: And Other Bullshit You Hear as a Hollywood TV Writer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 440min

  As prevalent as TV is in our lives, most of us have no concept of what goes into creating a show, getting it on the air, and keeping it on. Perhaps we assume that the people in charge simply decide what amuses them at the moment, make those shows, stick them on, and wait to see if the public responds. Or maybe they just throw darts at a board?The truth, as with most things, is more complicated. In 'Hello', Lied the Agent, Ian Gurvitz has produced a corrosively funny insider's look at what being a television writer is really all about. In his personal journal, he details two years in the life of a Hollywood television writer - the dizzying ups and downs, the rewrites, the executives, the pitch meetings, the table readings, the studios and networks and execs in a riveting expose of the business."It occurred to me that keeping a journal while I was going through the development process might illuminate a side of the business few people get to see, and give them a behind the scenes (God, I hate that overused ET phrase) look at the day-to-day experience of being a writer in Hollywood. OK, that's partly bullshit. I'm not that altruistic. The truth is, after 20 years in the trenches, I found myself bitching about many aspects of the business and needed an outlet, which left either writing a book, doing stand up, seeing my shrink more often or suffering in silence. But since I don't have the balls to try stand-up, there's no reason to waste a shrink visit bitching about the business when I've got more seriously f***ed-up issues to deal with, and there's no money in suffering in silence - that left book. Here it is...." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ian Gurvitz. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/pnix/000386/bk_pnix_000386_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
