Adam Grant's Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World Summary , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 48min
This is a Summary of Adam Grant's Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World. The book that examines how people can champion new ideas - and how leaders can fight groupthink. In Originals, Adam Grant addresses the challenge of improving the world, but now from the perspective of becoming original: choosing to champion novel ideas and values that go against the grain, battle conformity, and buck outdated traditions. How can we originate new ideas, policies, and practices without risking it all? Using surprising studies and stories spanning business, politics, sports, and entertainment, Grant explores how to recognize a good idea, speak up without getting silenced, build a coalition of allies, choose the right time to act, and manage fear and doubt; how parents and teachers can nurture originality in children; and how leaders can build cultures that welcome dissent. Learn from an entrepreneur who pitches his start-ups by highlighting the reasons not to invest, a woman at Apple who challenged Steve Jobs from three levels below, an analyst who overturned the rule of secrecy at the CIA, a billionaire financial wizard who fires employees for failing to criticize him, and a TV executive who didn't even work in comedy but saved Seinfeld from the cutting-room floor. The payoff is a set of groundbreaking insights about rejecting conformity and improving the status quo. Available in a variety of formats, this summary is aimed for those who want to capture the gist of the book, but don't have the current time to listen to the full book.

The Wisdom of Life, Counsels and Maxims , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 562min
'The two foes of human happiness are pain and boredom.' Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) was one of the most influential philosophers of the 19th century because his humanistic, atheistic, if pessimistic views chimed with a new secularism that was emerging from a Western society dominated by religion. Despite his rather forbidding image (and a few outdated views), he is one of the most approachable German philosophers, and this is certainly evident in these two key works, The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims. This is, says his translator, T. Bailey Saunders, because his theories were based on observation and experience - 'interpreting the world as it is'. In The Wisdom of Life, Schopenhauer considers eudemonology (the science of happiness) - 'the art of ordering our lives so as to obtain the greatest possible amount of pleasure and success'. He begins by dividing 'differences in the human lot' into three: what a man is in the sense of personality; what a man has in terms of property and possessions; and how a man stands in terms of the estimation of others. In the course of the book, he expands on these divisions. In Counsels and Maxims, he develops the theme of eudemonology by advising that it is best to replace the pursuit of pleasure and happiness with a more measured approach based on the avoidance of pain and suffering. However, his views are not as negative and pessimistic as this may seem, not least because he was the first major Western philosopher to be influenced by Eastern thought, notably Buddhism, which he acknowledges. In his exposition, Schopenhauer draws on numerous sources as varied as Plato and Horace, Goethe, Shakespeare, Silesius and, of course, his own major work The World as Will and Representation (1818). Both The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims first appeared (under the collective heading of Aphorisms on the Wisdom of Life) in his co ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Rintoul.

Love or Laws?: When Law Punishes Life, Volume 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 87min
Love or Laws: When Law Punishes Life (Essays on Law, Policy and Psychiatry, Vol. 4, 2018) is a study on so-called "sex laws" or age-of-consent laws. The study takes a critical point of departure and attempts to demonstrate that ages of consent are rather arbitrary legal instruments for so-called child protection. In fact, they are ineffective and do not protect children effectively against sexual abuse. The study gives practical examples about the ways they are applied in various state jurisdictions of the United States of America, such as Arkansas, Arizona, or Georgia, and to which results their application leads in real life. After an extensive review of attempts to reform age of consent laws in the Netherlands, Denmark, France, Switzerland, and other countries, the essays sets out to propose an altogether different solution: a love reform instead of a law reform, which means a different way of looking at the problem. Albert Einstein said that a problem can never be solved on the same level it was created, and so it is with sex laws. They were created during times of irrational lawmaking by our Church fathers, as a result of religious and legislative perversion, and have been taken over from canon law by the modern lawmaker without having reflected upon their law policy or rationale. The study concludes that age-of-consent laws are outdated, irrational, anti-life, unconstitutional, and violate basic human rights. With one word, they are illegal as they by and large violate the constitutional principle of nulla poena sine lege (due process). The study is dedicated to late Dr. Edward Brongersma, lawyer and senator of the Dutch Senate (1911-1998), who contributed to the essay with invaluable material from the practice of the Dutch government in matters of child protection, and with comments and suggestions. ungekürzt.
