    From the Oasthouse: The Alan Partridge Podcast: An Audible Original , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 404min
    Broadcaster, writer, philanthroper and one of the first public figures to suggest high-visibility clothing for people manning temporary car parks, the public Alan Partridge is a cherished institution. But what of the unseen Alan? For the first time, this famously private man welcomes us into his home and audibly deshrouds himself for a fascinating series of podcasts. Over the course of 18 generously durated episodes, Partridge grants us full and unfettered access to his off-screen life (within reason). In exchange for a series of payments from Audible, he promises an access-all-areas pass to the nooks and crannies of his hinterland, to reveal a wiser, cleverer, more reflective Alan than many of his more vaunted peers have given him credit for. He then sends the resultant podcasts to Audible ensuring they meet the technical specifications laid down in the contract. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alan Partridge.

    Make Us Happy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 447min
    A thousand years in the future, society is run by computers, with not a gesture or activity unnoticed by their all-seeing detectors. Spacescrapers - three miles high, 1,000 stories, 1,000 people per floor - house 1,000,000 people. The divorce rate having climbed to 100 percent, the computers have made marriage almost illegal but adultery compulsory, with a resultant zero divorce rate. In this setting, Bil and Alce meet, marry, and, their sense of history whetted by a few old books and photos, decide to rebel. They set out to find the central computer bank and pull the plug. Captured and imprisoned on a Floating Island (where the computers put criminals to get their just desserts), Bil and Alce escape. Their odyssey is gripping suspense and wonderful entertainment, with an ingenious depiction of man vs. machine. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Moseley.

    The Midwich Cuckoos (eBook, ePUB)

I myself had a dream about a highly intelligent nonhuman baby after reading this book."-Margaret Atwood, Slate What if the women of a sleepy English village all became simultaneously pregnant, and the children, once born, possessed supernatural-and possibly alien-powers? A mysterious silver object appears in quiet, picture-perfect Midwich. A day later, the object is gone-and all the women in the village, they will come to learn, are now pregnant. The resultant children of Midwich are shockingly, frighteningly other.

    Managing Climate Change and Sustainability through Behavioural Transformation
    This book addresses climate change and sustainability management from a transdisciplinary perspective which encompasses within itself how different humanistic disciplines can culminate with each other to move ahead with the agenda.Issues of adapting to climate change and sustainability management have been gaining global prominence over the past few decades. There have also been volumes of literature that highlight the technical dimensions of climate change and sustainability across regions and cultures. However, they have had limited strength to bring direct and desirable impact in promoting pro-climate action and sustainability behaviour. The major reason for this is limited inclusion of pluralistic perspectives into human cognition and affect, and resultant limited public acceptability.Although behavioural science as a discipline has taken a front seat in promoting behavioural transformation, the book argues that other humanistic fields of understanding like education, art, literature, philosophy, political science, sociology, economics, etc., have to be integrated in order to present a holistic standpoint to sustainability literature.

    The Great Shutdown (eBook, ePUB)
    On 24 March 2020, after the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, a complete nationwide lockdown was announced in India. In addition to other restrictions, which included suspension of air travel and long- and short-distance modes of transport, it was decided that the Indian Railways would no longer operate. The shutting down of the almost 68,000 kilometre-long railway network severed, in many cases, the only link for people with their home states. The Great Shutdown closely examines the repercussions of these decisions, the resultant uncertainty and emotional crisis for millions of people, especially migrant workers, who were separated from their families at a time when the threat of an unknown disease loomed large. It chronicles the COVID-19 regulations that were enforced during the lockdown, the different phases of unlocking and the second wave, and their humanitarian challenges. It also talks about the alternatives that could have been explored to keep travel going, which would have saved countless people a lot of suffering.

    Forgiveness from the Storm , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 689min
    Virgil Holmes was born an anxious, unfortunate being. As hard as he tried, anxiety, guilt, and inferiority always held him back. He became shy and withdrawn. In his teens, he spent many hours shivering in the darkness of a closet trying to comprehend what was wrong. What was wrong with him? Why was he the way he was? There was no answer.Eventually, the answer would come as an unwelcome companion, but it would come, like it or not. Virgil had the misfortune of being born the genetic duplicate of an ancestor from thousands of years ago. Along with that inheritance, he also inherited responsibility for storms that would follow wherever he went. He was innocent, but simultaneously responsible for the resultant wrath and destruction.Illogical and unfair, the curse was now his. As a result of cavorting with psychedelic flowers, he is thrust into another dimension - to a beautiful place where he is finally relieved of his burden. He would no longer be the storm-bringer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kenneth Ellison. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/207504/bk_acx0_207504_sample.mp3.

    The Third Reich Is Listening: Inside German Codebreaking 1939-45 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 792min
    The codebreakers at Bletchley Park have been immortalised in films such as The Imitation Game and Enigma, but the Germans were also breaking Allied ciphers. The Third Reich Is Listening is the comprehensive account of the successes, failures and science of Germany's codebreaking and signals intelligence operations from 1935 to 1945. This fast-moving blend of modern history and popular science is told through colourful personal accounts of the Germans at the heart of the story, including a former astronomer who worked out the British order of battle in 1940, a U-boat commander on the front line of the Battle of the Atlantic and the woman from the foreign ministry decrypting Japanese and Italian signals. It investigates how and why a regime as technologically advanced as the Third Reich both succeeded and failed in its battle to break their enemy's codes and to use the resultant intelligence effectively, and why they failed to recognise the fact that the Allies had cracked the enigma code. ungekürzt.

For the first time in a long time, she felt truly desirable and there was no telling what the resultant euphoria would make her do.... Warning: This 22,700-word story contains a steamy romance between a young black woman and a gorgeous Marine and explicit scenes too passionate for some listeners to handle! ungekürzt.
