    Good Money and Bad Men Outlaw Wes Cavanaugh knows that crime doesn't always pay - at least not much. That's why he and his partner, Mose, are willing to pay Jimmy Stock for information on a job that's guaranteed to pay off big. Jimmy's made a career of selling tips to bandits, but the job he sells Wes - a payroll train about to leave Omaha - requires more than information. It requires a straight shooter who can hit targets from a long distance away, and in the outlaw business even a straight shooter can't be trusted. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    This is Vinson Chard's second book recounting stories about his time working as a chemical engineer. He "spills the beans" on all the shenanigans perpetrated in the world of hazardous waste. The stories are of his hazardous and light-hearted misadventures while on these excursions and the colourful characters he meets along with way, with curious incidents like being shown some of the seedier areas of a Yorkshire city. There are stories of political intrigue at boardroom level, with company directors brawling in a prestigious Cardiff hotel on rugby International Day and Vinson forced to associate with a duplicitous Knight of the Realm. This is an eclectic mix of true stories and characters, all related with anecdotal humour, from the author of Life's Rich Mix. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul G. Bailey.

    We like to think of ourselves as highly evolved creatures. But if we are evolution's greatest creation, why are we so badly designed? We have retinas that face backward, the stump of a tail, and way too many bones in our wrists. We must find vitamins and nutrients in our diets that other animals simply make for themselves. Millions of us can't reproduce successfully without help from modern science. We have nerves that take bizarre paths, muscles that attach to nothing, and lymph nodes that do more harm than good. And that's just the beginning of the story. As biologist Nathan H. Lents explains, our evolutionary history is a litany of mistakes, each more entertaining and enlightening than the last. As we will discover, by exploring human shortcomings, we can peer into our past, because each of our flaws tells a story about our species' evolutionary history. A rollicking, deeply informative tour of our four-billion-year-long evolutionary saga, Human Errors both celebrates our imperfections - for our mutations are, in their own way, a testament to our species' greatness - and offers an unconventional accounting of the cost of our success. ungekürzt.
