    Masters of Greek Thought: Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle, Hörbuch, Digital, 1096min
    For more than two millennia, philosophers have grappled with life's most profound and "eternal" questions. It is easy to forget, however, that these questions about fundamental issues like justice, injustice, virtue, vice, or happiness were not always eternal. They once had to be asked for the first time. This was a step that could place the inquirer beyond the boundaries of the law. And the Athenian citizen and philosopher who took that courageous step in the 5th century B.C. was Socrates. In this intellectually vibrant - yet crystal-clear and accessible - series of 36 lectures, an award-winning teacher provides you with a detailed analysis of the golden age of Athenian philosophy and the philosophical consequences of the philosopher's famed "Socratic Turn": his veering away from philosophy's previous concerns with the scientific study of nature and the physical world and toward the scrutiny of moral opinion. After Socrates, philosophy would never be the same. You learn that much of Socrates's philosophy is captured in the writings of his contemporaries and followers, including not just Plato and Aristotle, but also figures like Xenophon, a great thinker and military commander, and the comic playwright Aristophanes. Professor Bartlett takes you through Plato's most important dialogues - where Socrates is the protagonist - and shows how they convey the core of Socrates's philosophy. He then moves on to Aristotle, who did more than anyone to establish a comprehensive system of philosophy in the West, producing work encompassing morality, politics, aesthetics, logic, science, rhetoric, theology, metaphysics, and more.

    Therapy: An Alex Delaware Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 829min
    Been a while since I had me a nice little whodunit," homicide detective Milo Sturgis tells Alex Delaware. But there's definitely nothing nice about the brutal tableau behind the yellow crime-scene tape. On a lonely lover's lane in the hills of Los Angeles, a young couple lies murdered in a car. Each bears a single gunshot wound to the head. The female victim has also been impaled by a metal spike. And that savage stroke of psychopathic fury tells Milo this case will call for more than standard police procedure. As he explains to Delaware, "Now we're veering into your territory." It is dark territory, indeed. The dead woman remains unidentified and seemingly unknown to everyone. But her companion has a name: Gavin Quick, and his troubled past eventually landed him on a therapist's couch. It's there, on familiar turf, that Delaware hopes to find vital clues. And that means going head-to-head with Dr. Mary Lou Koppel, a popular celebrity psychologist who fiercely guards the privacy of her clients...dead or alive. But when there's another gruesomely familiar murder, Delaware surmises that his investigation has struck a nerve. As he trolls the twisted wreckage of Quick's tormented last days, what he finds isn't madness, but the cold-blooded method behind it. And as he follows a chain of greed, corruption, and betrayal snaking hideously through the profession he thought he knew, he'll discover territory where even he never dreamed of treading. As provocative as it is suspenseful, Therapy is premier Kellerman that finds the award-winning author firing on all creative cylinders and carrying readers on an electrifying ride to a place only he can take them, for an experience they won't soon forget. ungekürzt.

    Start Your Day With Positive Thoughts: Powerful Way For Positive Shift , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 187min
    Thoughts are our "daily bread", which we feed on and through which we create "reality". But I want to make a premise: The thought is the fruit of who you are (or rather of what you think you are), so to "change your thoughts" you have to transform your discovery, only in this way does your reality change. History has shown us on several occasions that those who have a positive outlook on life are also those who generally achieve greater success. And there is no lack of quotes from the great entrepreneurs on the importance of positive thoughts and an optimistic mental attitude. Personally, changing my mental attitude from negative by learning to think positive has led to a radical change in my lifestyle, both personally and professionally. The change in mental approach, veering towards positive thinking, led to the transition from a series of failures and states of depression related to them to start seeing things go better and grow: To live positive. Have you ever wondered how you can convert your day into a positive one? Or did you do your best to stop negative thoughts?So, this guide is all it takes to find the peace you crave, so read on. Positive thinking just means that you face unpleasantness in a more positive and productive way. Do you think the summit will take place, perhaps not the worst. Positive thinking often begins with inner dialogue. Inner dialogue is the infinite flow of unspoken thoughts that run through your head. These automatic thoughts can be positive or negative. Some of your personal speeches derive from logic and reason. Other personal conversations can result from misconceptions created due to lack of information.In this book you will learn:How to start the day with positive thoughtsPowerful ways to have positive changes in your lifeHow to best find your happiness and charge your energyPositive affirmations and how they ca ungekürzt.

    We Are Children of the Evolution! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 339min
    We are rapidly reaching a tipping point where the collapse of civilization and the extinction of much of the natural world looms ominously upon the horizon. It is a bleak picture and on the surface it looks as though we are doomed as the driving force of so many beings come from fear, anger, unworthiness, loneliness, depression, and a host of emotions that are tangled in what the author calls the strand of sorrow. The patterns of our past are veering us toward a tipping point in our present. The pertinent question to ask here is - “Are you willing to put your heart into reaching a new tipping point and to take an active part in the transformation of the worlds?” At a life-changing retreat in the Caribbean over the full moon week of February 2019, the author and the participants working with him on the reef in Jamaica had paradigm shifts. A vision that took them all from a place of having huge hope for the world changed to a knowing that we can evolve as a species and as a planet. With this vision came a pathway of how the evolution can be realised. This vision has been recorded to produce a relevant book for our times: We Are Children of the Evolution. A book that affirms that - We Can! Will we? Well, that is up to you, dear listener, for you are the one whose heart can lead us to the tipping point. My hope is that you will be called to listen to this incredible tale of life, death, and rebirth and to then board the boat that sails us into a new reality. Let’s re-dream the world and take responsibility for being the change that we have been waiting for. Listen to the audio to pick up your ticket for the passage into a bright new world! ungekürzt.

    Prophet Muhammad Peace Be Upon Him: A Summarized Story of God’s Last & Final Prophet from Birth to Death , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 55min
    How would one know their role and life purpose unless one receives clear and practical instructions of what God wants and expects of him or her? Here comes the need for Prophethood. Thus, God has sent thousands of Messengers and Prophets to mankind to convey His Message and communicate to us. Every nation on Earth received a prophet. They all preached the same general message that there is only one deity worthy of worship. He is the one and only God, without a partner, son, daughter, or equal. God sent messengers and prophets to guide humanity from worshipping created beings and to worship their creator, the creator of all things. The Prophets came to teach their people about who their creator is, how to build a relationship with Him, and how to love him. The prophets taught their people that life is only a test, where the successful will enter Paradise eternally, and the unsuccessful will enter the ultimate punishment in the afterlife. Out of the infinite mercy and love of God, God continued to send messengers with books from God to guide humanity - starting with Prophet Adam, including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Jacob, Moses, Prophet Jesus, and Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon them all. Many of the Prophets are found in Jewish and Christian traditions. All the previous messengers and books other than the Holy Quran and Prophet Muhammad were sent down only to a specific group of people and were only meant to be followed for a particular period. For example, Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him, was one of God's mightiest messengers, who was sent down with the same general message of all the previous prophets but was only sent to the Children of Israel - the nation that lived before us, as their final Prophet because they were disobeying the commandments of God and veering away from the laws sent down by the previous messenger, Moses, peace be upon him. ungekürzt.

    Wicked Good , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 469min
    A single mom struggles to solve the puzzle of a son with Asperger's syndrome in this touching, winsome comic melodrama. Rory Falcon is a bundle of exasperating eccentricities-perpetual pacing, mile-a-minute talkativeness, an obsession with lawn mowers and antique gas cans, an incorrigible refusal to follow instructions or tolerate constraints-combined with a good heart that only his adoptive mother Archer can see. But as he pushes 16-years-old, his quirks escalate to drinking, joyriding and muscular rages that can end with him blackening his mom's eye. Archer, a frantically multitasking lawyer who's up for a judgeship, blames her mothering skills for Rory's behavior because there's no one else to blame - least of all her ex-husband Wayne, a whiny man-child still looking to break into a theater career. Then Rory and a high-school hellion named Trish hare off in a stolen car to find Rory's birth mother, and Archer embarks on a journey to recover her son and unearth buried family secrets that stretch all the way back to the Salem Witch Trials. In this entertaining dysfunction romp, the authors cut the pathos with tart humor and vivid characterizations. Hurricane Rory is an indelible portrait of a high-functioning autistic kid who's both off-putting and magnetic; veering between wild, foul-mouthed tantrums, plangent sweetness and locked-down obliviousness, he's as much a mystery to himself as to everyone else. Archer is another vibrant tangle of contradictions; determined to play the stalwart authority figure, she feels like a wreck and a failure-a tiger mom who is nonetheless in serious danger of collapsing in vodka-soaked sniffles into the arms of a comforting teenager. As she walks a fraying maternal tightrope-with plenty of pratfalls-Lewis and Faircloth give readers a hilarious and moving study of familial love that's all the stronger for its conflicts and misgivings. ungekürzt.

    The Perfect Range , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 233min
    Want to make more money playing poker? Only 10% of poker players are profitable, but the solution is easier than you think. One of the most important and overlooked aspects of the game is your range. This pertains to what hands you will and will not play. Of course, everyone will play AA, KK, QQ, and AK, but how far should that range stretch? Through trial and error, I have tested range theories for years. It didn't take long to find one that led to a very high winning percentage, but the wins weren't big and I wasn't getting a lot of action. This is NOT a negative if you play often and want small yet consistent wins. However, if you want to maximize your profits, then applying the adjustments I have made to this range should greatly increase your odds of long-term success. In this book, I don't just describe the perfect range. That would be boring. I'm not into boring. Instead, I tested the perfect range in 23 live cash games and three live tournaments. In order to add some flavor, I played in poker rooms in Florida, North Carolina, Atlantic City, West Virginia, and Connecticut. I was undercover in every instance. I also included my on-the-felt and off-the-felt misadventures, which I seem to have a knack for. Everything written in this book happened. I gave all characters I came across nicknames, but if you play poker in any of the states (or city) mentioned above, then it's possible that you will hear about someone you know, or maybe even yourself. My first poker strategy book, Poker Notes, has received excellent feedback and sells consistently. I'm glad to hear it's making a difference for people. I think The Perfect Range is even more valuable! If you stick to this strategy without veering off course, it should lead to greatly improved results on the felt, especially if combined with the strategies covered in Poker Notes and Poker Blog. ungekürzt.
