The Secret Life of Dust: From the Cosmos to the Kitchen Counter, the Consequences of Little Things , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 679min
A mesmerizing expedition around our dusty world. Some see dust as dull stuff, useless at best, and sneeze-inducing at worst. But in the hands of writer Hannah Holmes, dust becomes a dazzling and mysterious force. As Holmes says, dust is a messenger, and air is its medium. And by the end of this fascinating journey through The Secret Life of Dust, we cannot help but agree. Humble dust, we discover, built the very planet we walk upon. It tinkers with the weather and it spices the air we breathe. Billions of tons of tiny particles rise into the air annually - the dust of deserts and forgotten kings mixing with volcanic ash, sea salt, leaf fragments, scales from butterfly wings, shreds of T-shirts, and fireplace soot. And eventually, of course, all this dust must settle. The story of restless dust begins among exploding stars, then treks through the dinosaur beds of the Gobi Desert, digs into Antarctic glaciers - and probes the dark underbelly of the living-room couch. And there is good company on this journey: Holmes gathers for us a delightful, and, by necessity, highly inventive, cast of characters - the scientists who study dust. Some investigate its dark side: how it killed off dinosaurs and how its industrial descendants are killing us today. Others sample the shower of Saharan dust that nourishes Caribbean jungles; still others venture into the microscopic jungle of the bedroom carpet. Like The Secret Life of Dust, all of them unveil the mayhem - and the magic - wrought by little things. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eliza Foss.

We Have No Idea: A Guide to the Unknown Universe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 542min
'This witty book reveals the humbling vastness of our ignorance about the universe, along with charming insights into what we actually do understand.' (Carlo Rovelli, author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics and Reality Is Not What It Seems) Many books explain what we know about the universe. This one, from the hugely popular PhD Comics (50 million readers since 2008), tackles all the weird stuff we haven't figured out yet. In our small corner of the universe, we know how some matter behaves most of the time and what even less of it looks like, and we have some good guesses about where it all came from. But we really have no clue what's going on. In fact we don't know what about 95 percent of the universe is made of. So what happens when a cartoonist and a physicist walk into this strange, mostly unknown universe? Jorge Cham and Daniel Whiteson gleefully explore the biggest unknowns, why these things are still mysteries, and what a lot of smart people are doing to figure out the answers (or at least ask the right questions). While they're at it, they helpfully demystify many complicated things we do know about, from quarks and neutrinos to gravitational waves and exploding black holes. With equal doses of humour and delight, they invite us to see the universe as a vast expanse of mostly uncharted territory that's still ours to explore. This is a book for fans of Brian Cox and What If. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Daniel Whiteson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hodd/001157/bk_hodd_001157_sample.mp3.

Duma Key (eBook, ePUB)
A terrible construction site accident takes Edgar Freemantle's right arm and scrambles his memory and his mind, leaving him with little but rage as he begins the ordeal of rehabilitation. A marriage that produced two lovely daughters suddenly ends, and Edgar begins to wish he hadn't survived the injuries that could have killed him. He wants out. His psychologist, Dr. Kamen, suggests a "geographic cure," a new life distant from the Twin Cities and the building business Edgar grew from scratch. And Kamen suggests something else. "Edgar, does anything make you happy?" "I used to sketch.""Take it up again. You need hedges...hedges against the night."Edgar leaves Minnesota for a rented house on Duma Key, a stunningly beautiful, eerily undeveloped splinter of the Florida coast. The sun setting into the Gulf of Mexico and the tidal rattling of shells on the beach call out to him, and Edgar draws. A visit from Ilse, the daughter he dotes on, starts his movement out of solitude. He meets a kindred spirit in Wireman, a man reluctant to reveal his own wounds, and then Elizabeth Eastlake, a sick old woman whose roots are tangled deep in Duma Key. Now Edgar paints, sometimes feverishly, his exploding talent both a wonder and a weapon. Many of his paintings have a power that cannot be controlled. When Elizabeth's past unfolds and the ghosts of her childhood begin to appear, the damage of which they are capable is truly devastating. The tenacity of love, the perils of creativity, the mysteries of memory and the nature of the supernatural -- Stephen King gives us a novel as fascinating as it is gripping and terrifying.- Shop: buecher

Possessing the uncanny ability to fry a television set from 20 paces can really wreck a girl’s social life.... If you’re looking for proof, just ask 16-year-old Alexandra Parker. After catching her boyfriend in the arms of the prettiest girl in school, she made the journey from social elite to social pariah in a haze of electricity and exploding electronics. But finding herself at the bottom of Bay View High’s social hierarchy was nothing compared to the shock of discovering who - and what - she really is.

It’s through them that she learns the truth: that the world she’s always known is nothing like it appears to be...and that she has far more in common with them than she might want to believe. Now, on the run from a fire-wielding hit man and a secretive government organization, Alex must navigate a strange and treacherous new world filled with superhuman mutants known as Variants. As she begins to unravel the many secrets of her family’s past, she uncovers the real reason for her parents’ deaths 12 years earlier - and finds out that the threat to her family, and to everyone she cares about, is still dangerously real.Revival is the first electrifying novel of The Variant Series.

Supers: Ex Heroes Boxset: Books 1-4 Plus Shorts , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1367min
On his way to death row, torn into a galaxy of supers, told the fate of the universe is on his hands. This is the story of Breaker. The first four books included in this boxset, along with a bonus. Who in their right mind tells both his lawyer and the judge presiding over his murder trial, “F--k you!” while still in the courtroom? No one, right? Yeah, you’d be wrong about that. I did. You’d say the same thing if you were just found guilty of a murder you didn’t commit, though. Call me crazy for going off like that in court, but trust me, you don’t know crazy until you see what happened next. I never believed in superheroes. I certainly didn’t believe that I’d become one, or that strategically forming a harem of hot ladies and getting down with them to unlock my superpowers would be the key to my survival. Did I say my survival? I meant the universe’s. No, really...that’s exactly what happened when I was taken to a galaxy of supers, thrown into a prison ship full of villains, and told it was up to me to stop them all. Read on, friend, because it gets a whole hell of a lot crazier from here. This boxset contains the following: Supers: Ex Heroes 1 Supers: Ex Heroes 2 Supers: Ex Heroes 3 Supers: Ex Heroes 4 Plus a bonus! WARNING: This book contains violence and many sexual situations, a harem, heads exploding, and ample blood. You might cringe, you will laugh, and hell, you might even cry. All of that is on purpose, I assure you. Second Edition for even better ball jokes. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Justin Thomas James, Jeff Hays, Yvonne Syn, Carly Crawford.

Borderline personality disorder is a disorder that has been stigmatized for centuries.Before people understood exactly what was occurring within the mind of the person with this issue, portrayals were created that were inaccurate, unkind, and simplifying the experience of the person who simply felt like their emotions ran their life. There are other mental health disorders where a person can feel this way as well: the experience of anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and certain eating disorders. It is hard enough to feel like your brain is full of exploding colors that paint themselves as emotions all over the canvas of your life, but not be able to comprehend where to paint the lines, is true suffering.But what if there existed a treatment that was directly focused on helping a person with this particular problem?What if your issues were addressed rather than ignored, and specific skills were taught to you that appeared like a toolkit rather than temporary cover-ups?Dialectical behavior therapy exists to show you that what you are feeling isn’t a falsehood, but the occurrence of many mitigating factors that stretch past when you were even born, presence of genetic, environmental, neurological, and parental influences that caused the development of borderline personality disorder DBT skills focus on mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and the development interpersonal skills.You have no need to drown your emotions, or run away from what is going on inside your head. This book has a gentle approach that accepts whatever the person listening to it may have done in the past, and looks forward toward a brighter, more satisfying future.
