    Great Scientists and Their Discoveries , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 145min
    Nine remarkable men produced inventions that changed the world. The printing press, the telephone, powered flight, recording, and others have made the modern world what it is. But who were the men who had these ideas and made reality of them? As David Angus shows, they were very different - quiet, boisterous, confident, withdrawn - but all had a moment of vision allied to single-minded determination to battle through numerous prototypes and produced something that really worked. This is a fascinating account for younger listeners.

    The Man Nobody Wanted, Hörbuch, Digital, 496min
    There can be no peace in the Middle East as long as a small outlaw country dictates the foreign policy of the United States. To break this endless cycle of violence, I have ordered all Israeli assets in the United States frozen, and all U.S. aid to Israel cancelled until Israel has withdrawn from its illegal settlements, and returned to its 1967 borders. It must also recognize a functional Palestinian State with Jerusalem its jointly shared capital."

    Fifty Poems of Emily Dickinson, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
    Emily Dickinson was born into a prominent New England family. Sociable as a child, she grew increasingly withdrawn, and in later years she became known as a recluse. Though her poems often accompanied gifts to family and close friends, only seven were published during her lifetime. Just after her death in 1886, her sister discovered 1,775 poems bound in small packets; 50 of the most penetrating and insightful of those poems are collected here. Listeners will find them perfect for meditation, relaxation, or simply for the sheer pleasure of listening to what has become known as some of the best English language poetry every written. ungekürzt.

    The Enemy Within: Home Front Detective, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 554min
    Pentonville Prison. Wally Hibbert is serving a long sentence for arson. But after befriending and tricking one of the officers, Hibbert makes an audacious escape. Inspector Marmion, the detective who arrested Hibbert, is warned to watch his back, but it seems that Hibbert has another target in his murderous sights. However, the investigation is mired in confusion, and the identities of killer and victim become increasingly ambiguous. An inmate at an internment camp who might be a spy sending intelligence to the Germans complicates matters further, and the multiplying manhunts, as well as Marmion's concern for his injured and withdrawn son Paul, leave the detective desperate and perhaps with too many threads to untangle. ungekürzt.

    Beggars and Choosers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 727min
    In a future America strangely altered by genetic modifications, millions of ordinary people are supported by the efforts of handsome and intellectually-superior gene-modified humans. These, in turn, are running scared in the face of the near-superhuman powers of the Sleepless, radically altered humans who have their own agenda for humanity. The Sleepless have withdrawn from the rest of the race to an island retreat, from which they periodically release dazzling scientific advances. Most of the world is on the verge of collapse, overburdened by a population of jobless drones and racked by the results of irresponsible genetic research and nanotechnology. Will the world be saved? And for whom? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki, Cassandra Campbell, Mirron Willis, Kirsten Potter.
