Five easy rules for developing intuition, based on trailblazing research by a top Australian neuroscientist. Learn when it's safe to rely on intuition in decision-making and when it's not. Intuition has saved lives and averted disasters, and it also lies behind countless innovative decisions. Steve Jobs, for one, regularly relied on his intuition in making business decisions at Apple. Some people use intuition more readily than others but anyone can learn to develop and trust it. The key is ensuring that certain conditions are met so as to avoid the pitfalls. Neuroscientist Joel Pearson has identified five essential rules for using intuition, easily remembered by the acronym SMILE: S: Self-awareness (Feeling emotional? Don't trust your intuition). M: Mastery (Learn before you leap: why mastery matters for intuition). I: Impulses and Addiction (These are not intuition). L: Low Probability (Don't use intuition for probabilistic judgments). E: Environment (Use intuition only in familiar and predictable contexts). In explaining these rules, Joel takes anecdotes from real life, including mountain climber Jon Muir's lifesaving decision; a gameshow that uses humans' innate misunderstanding of probability to rig its prizes; why you should never go rock-climbing on a first date; and what happens when Usain Bolt races in low gravity. The Intuition Toolkit is scientifically solid, highly enjoyable and utterly fascinating.

Author: Wendy Doniger | Narrator: Amy Landon
From one of the world's foremost scholars on Hinduism, a vivid reinterpretation of its history.
Hinduism does not lend itself easily to a strictly chronological account. Many of its central texts cannot be reliably dated within a century; its central tenets arise at particular moments in Indian history and often differ according to gender or caste; and the differences between groups of Hindus far outnumber the commonalities. Yet the greatness of Hinduism lies precisely in many of these idiosyncratic qualities that continue to inspire debate today.

Author: Captivating History
Narrator: Jason Zenobia
Learn about the pivotal battle that changed the course of the American Civil War. In the summer of 1863, Confederate General Robert E. Lee, fresh off a victory at the Battle of Chancellorsville, decided to invade Union territory. Taking his Army of Northern Virginia into Pennsylvania, Lee was drawn to a place where the area's major roads converged at Gettysburg. There, over seventy thousand Southern troops waged a dogged, bloody battle against over ninety thousand Union soldiers in the fields and on the boulder-strewn heights surrounding the town. Lee had a lot of faith in his troops. He nursed many hopes for the invasion, primarily engaging in peace negotiations by placing pressure on Washington, D.C. Within three days, those hopes and the future of the Southern cause lay battered on the Gettysburg battlefield, a defeat so crippling it signaled the beginning of the end for the Confederacy. This captivating guide tells the story of the Gettysburg campaign, from Lee's decision to invade to his retreat from the battlefield. In these pages, you'll read about acts of heroism, brilliant battlefield tactics, and horrible decisions that turned the tide of war.

Free Download Charles River Editors, Bill Caufield (Narrator), "The German Air Force during the World Wars: The History of the Imperial German Air Service and the Luftwaffe"
English | ISBN: 9798882396304 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~04:45:00 | 131 MB
The Germans produced cutting edge aerial technology during World War I, along with revolutionary dogfighting tactics and some of history's first flying aces, including the most famous, the Red Baron. But ultimately, economic shortages and lack of manpower hampered the Germans in the air, even when their men and machinery proved superior at critical periods of the war. The story would not turn out the same a generation later. The Third Reich's Luftwaffe began World War II with significant advantages over other European air forces, playing a critical role in the German war machine's swift, powerful advance. By war's end, however, the Luftwaffe had been decimated by combat losses and crippled by poor decisions at the highest levels of military decision-making, and it proved unable to challenge Allied air superiority despite a last-minute upsurge in German aircraft production.
Given its unique strengths and distinctive weaknesses by the personal quirks of the men who developed it, the Luftwaffe initially overwhelmed the more conservative, outdated military aviation of other countries. Its leaders embraced such concepts as the dive-bomber, which proved both utterly devastating and extremely useful for supporting the sweeping, powerful movements of Blitzkrieg, while other martial establishments rejected dive-bombers as impractical or even impossible.
The Luftwaffe's eventual loss of aerial domination exposed the Germans to precisely the same misfortunes on the ground as they had once relentlessly inflicted on the Poles and Russians. During its heyday, however, the Luftwaffe amply proved the leading role played by air power in the modern combined arms formula. It also produced a remarkable number of aces, whose exploits overshadowed the finest pilots of the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, or the United States.
