Author: Johann Gottlieb Fichte
Narrator: Jonathan Booth
Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762-1814) was the forerunner of the post-Kantian idealists and remains one of the most important figures in German philosophy. Throughout his career, Fichte published, in addition to his systematic or "scientific" treatises, the best known of which is the "Foundation of the Entire Wissenchaftslehre (1794-5), a series of works directed at the general public. The purpose of these "popular" writings was to indicate, in a non-technical manner, some of the characteristic features of the new transcendental philosophy and to explicate some of its more significant implications. William Smith translated most of these "popular writings" in the 19th century and published them individually and in the various editions of "The Popular Works of Johann Gottlieb Fichte". Each edition included corrections and improvements in the translation.

Free Download Matt Fitzgerald, Ryan Whited, Gregory Abbey (Narrator), "Pain & Performance: The Revolutionary New Way to Use Training as Treatment for Pain and Injury"
English | ASIN: B0CQRTR5WK | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~07:00 | 192 MB
What if everything you know about athletic pain is wrong? For starters, pain is not synonymous with being "injured." Nor is it evidence that your biomechanics are "flawed" or your body is "imbalanced." And most important, pain doesn't always mean you have to see a doctor.
In Pain and Performance, Ryan Whited and Matt Fitzgerald present a radically new way to understand and manage sports-related pain that exposes the shocking lack of evidence for modern medicine's approach to injury management. Based on recent advances in pain science, Whited's revolutionary "Training as Treatment" method puts athletes in control of their pain experience with a unique strength-based system that is proven to result in less downtime, fewer visits to clinicians, less anxiety about pain and injury, less time and money wasted on treatments that don't work. The end result is better performance and a more fulfilling athletic journey.
An elite boulderer and son of an often-injured professional horse jockey, Whited knows pain intimately, having spent decades guiding athletes from breakdowns to breakthroughs at Paragon Athletics. His gym in Flagstaff is a magnet for pain-affected runners, climbers, and other athletes and enthusiasts who've grown frustrated with the medical system. Pain and Performance makes Whited's unparalleled knowledge and expertise available to all, offering inspiration and empowerment for anyone seeking to stay out of the doctor's office and on track toward their goals and dreams.

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 Nuclear War: A Scenario (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CF6K1NZ9 | 2024 | 11 hours and 19 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 311 MB
Author: Annie Jacobsen
Narrator: Annie Jacobsen
There is only one scenario other than an asteroid strike that could end the world as we know it in a matter of hours: nuclear war. 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.
