Author: Neil Howe
Narrator: Neil Howe
The visionary behind the best-selling phenomenon The Fourth Turning looks once again to America's past to predict our future in this startling and hopeful prophecy for how our present era of civil unrest will resolve over the next 10 years-and what our lives will look like once it has. Twenty-five years ago, Neil Howe and the late William Strauss dazzled the world with a provocative new theory of American history. Looking back at the last 500 years, they'd uncovered a distinct pattern: modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting roughly 80 to 100 years, the length of a long human life, with each cycle composed of four eras-or "turnings"-that always arrive in the same order and each last about 25 years. The last of these eras-the fourth turning-was always the most perilous, a period of civic upheaval and national mobilization as traumatic and transformative as the New Deal and World War II, the Civil War, or the American Revolution.

English | ASIN: B0BLB2Z7S2 | 2023 | 7 hours and 47 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 199 MB
Author: Andrew Leland
Narrator: Andrew Leland
A witty, winning, and revelatory personal narrative of the author's transition from sightedness to blindness and his quest to learn about blindness as a rich culture all its own. We meet Andrew Leland as he's suspended in the liminal state of the soon-to-be blind: he's midway through his life with retinitis pigmentosa, a condition that ushers those who live with it from sightedness to blindness over years, even decades. He grew up with full vision, but starting in his teenage years, his sight began to degrade from the outside in, such that he now sees the world as if through a narrow tube. Soon-but without knowing exactly when-he will likely have no vision left.

Author: Kimberley Strassel
Narrator: Kimberley Strassel, Stephanie Richardson
The bestselling author argues that Joe Biden, like Jimmy Carter before him, has mired the country in weakness, inflation and political unease. ​ Whether in politics or policy, the parallels between the Biden and Carter presidencies are now beyond striking. Two presidents-separated by nearly 50 years-beset by the same domestic and foreign policy morasses, politically swamped by a national ennui. However, THE BIDEN MALAISE will examine why such claims overlook important nuances that show President Biden's blunders are ultimately far worse. Our current president inherited a better situation along with the lessons of what not to do from Carter's governance. Biden, captive to an ascendent progressive wing of his party, doubled down on Carter's mistakes and created crises that were as avoidable as they are now severe.

Free Download Look: How to Pay Attention in a Distracted World (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BL9T9G41 | 2023 | 6 hours and 27 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 287 MB
Author: Christian Madsbjerg
Narrator: George Newbern
A powerful exploration of how we pay attention that will transform the ways we connect with one another-at home, at work, and beyond. Paying attention is a crucial human skill, yet many of us have forgotten how to listen carefully and observe intentionally. Deluged by social media and hobbled by the increasing social isolation it fosters, we need to rediscover the deeply human ways we connect with others. Christian Madsbjerg, a philosopher and entrepreneur, understands this dilemma. To counteract it, he began a course at The New School in New York City called Human Observation, which lays out the ways that we can learn to pay attention more effectively. The course has been hugely popular since its inception, with hundreds of students filling waiting lists. In Look, Madsbjerg sets out the key observational skills needed to show how we can recapture our ability to pay attention. Drawing from philosophy, science, the visual arts, and his own life, he offers both practical insights and a range of tools for experiencing the world with greater richness and texture. The result is a dynamic approach to rethinking observation that helps all of us to see with more empathy, accuracy, and connection to others.
