Craig (Narrator), "On Disinformation: How to Fight for Truth and Protect Democracy" English | ASIN: B0CXR65JQW | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~02:16:00 | 63 MB The effort to destroy facts and make America ungovernable didn't come out of nowhere. It is the culmination of seventy years of strategic denialism. In On Disinformation, Lee McIntyre shows how the war on facts began, and how ordinary citizens can fight back against the scourge of disinformation that is now threatening the very fabric of our society. Drawing on his twenty years of experience as a scholar of science denial, McIntyre explains how autocrats wield disinformation to manipulate a populace and deny obvious realities, why the best way to combat disinformation is to disrupt its spread, and most importantly, how we can win the war on truth. McIntyre goes through the history of strategic denialism to show how we arrived at this precarious political moment and identifies the creators, amplifiers, and believers of disinformation. On Disinformation lays out ten everyday practical steps that we can take as ordinary citizens-from resisting polarization to pressuring our Congress people to regulate social media-as well as the important steps our government (if we elect the right leaders) must take. On Disinformation empowers us to save our republic from autocracy before it is too late. ![]() Free Download Odin's Omens: Reading Nature Through Viking Eyes (Audiobook) English | ISBN: 9781456648084 | 2024 | 2 hours and 29 minutes | M4B@192 kbps | 204 MB Author: Dr John Sorensen Narrator: Katie Martin "Odin's Omens: Reading Nature Through Viking Eyes" invites you on a captivating journey through the mystical world of the Vikings.

And one of the triggers for that war would be a nuclear missile inbound toward the United States. Every generation, a journalist has looked deep into the heart of the nuclear military establishment: the technologies, the safeguards, the plans, and the risks. These investigations are vital to how we understand the world we really live in-where one nuclear missile will beget one in return, and where the choreography of the world's end requires massive decisions made on seconds' notice with information that is only as good as the intelligence we have. Pulitzer Prize finalist Annie Jacobsen's Nuclear War: A Scenario explores this ticking-clock scenario, based on dozens of exclusive new interviews with military and civilian experts who have built the weapons, have been privy to the response plans, and have been responsible for those decisions should they have needed to be made. Nuclear War: A Scenario examines the handful of minutes after a nuclear missile launch. It is essential listening, and unlike any other book in its depth and urgency. ![]() Free Download Not Gay: Sex Between Straight White Men (Audiobook) English | November 19, 2015 | ASIN: B018621KFW | M4B@128 kbps | 8h 6m | 455 MB Author: Jane Ward | Narrator: Dara Rosenberg A straight white girl can kiss a girl, like it, and still call herself straight - her boyfriend may even encourage her. But can straight white guys experience the same easy sexual fluidity, or would kissing a guy just mean that they are really gay? Not Gay thrusts deep into a world where straight guy-on-guy action is not a myth but a reality: There's fraternity and military hazing rituals, where new recruits are made to grab each other's penises and stick fingers up their fellow members' anuses; online personal ads, where straight men seek other straight men to masturbate with; and, last but not least, the long and clandestine history of straight men frequenting public restrooms for sexual encounters with other men. For Jane Ward, these sexual practices reveal a unique social space where straight white men can - and do - have sex with other straight white men; in fact, she argues, to do so reaffirms rather than challenges their gender and racial identity. ![]() Free Download Nikola Tesla: Biography of a True Genius (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B07TS9JXYF | 2019 | 3 hours and 37 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 201 MB Author: Luke Johnston Narrator: John Grant Nikola Tesla, genius or madman?

Whether you are starting school, beginning a new job, attending a party-any time you are trying to find your place in a new or unfamiliar environment-well-meaning advisors offer this nugget of wisdom. But what if being your authentic self means you don't fit in with what society or your peers may consider "normal"? What is "normal", anyway? Join Dr. Kyler Shumway and Dr. Daniel Wendler to explore these questions and many others in Neurodiversity and the Myth of Normal. In six lectures, Dr. Shumway and Dr. Wendler will help you understand the nature of neurodiversity, a growing school of thought that seeks to embrace the range of differences in individual brain function and behaviors rather than "correct" them, with a focus on empathy, acceptance, and accommodation. To help you better understand neurodiversity, your instructors will guide you through three core concepts: ![]() Free Download Mortal Secrets: Freud, Vienna, and the Discovery of the Modern Mind (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0CV4HT1XW | 2024 | 14 hours and 12 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 412 MB Author: Frank Tallis Narrator: Simon Shepherd A chronicle of Vienna's Golden Age and the influence of Sigmund Freud on the modern world by a clinical psychologist whose mystery novels form the basis of PBS's Vienna Blood series.

Vienna was one such city and, at the beginning of the twentieth century, was the birthplace of the modern mind and the way we live today. Long coffee menus and celebrity interviews are Viennese inventions.
