Title: Pumpkinflowers: A Soldier's Story of a Forgotten War Author: Matti Friedman Narrator: Matti Friedman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 31 minutes Release date: November 5, 2024 Genres: Military Publisher's Summary: “A book about young men transformed by war, written by a veteran whose dazzling literary gifts gripped my attention from the first page to the last.” —The Wall Street Journal “Friedman’s sober and striking new memoir . . . [is] on a par with Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried -- its Israeli analog.” —The New York Times Book Review It was just one small hilltop in a small, unnamed war in the late 1990s, but it would send out ripples that are still felt worldwide today. The hill, in Lebanon, was called the Pumpkin; flowers was the military code word for “casualties.” Award-winning writer Matti Friedman re-creates the harrowing experience of a band of young Israeli soldiers charged with holding this remote outpost, a task that would change them forever, wound the country in ways large and small, and foreshadow the unwinnable conflicts the United States would soon confront in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere. Pumpkinflowers is a reckoning by one of those young soldiers now grown into a remarkable writer. Part memoir, part reportage, part history, Friedman’s powerful narrative captures the birth of today’s chaotic Middle East and the rise of a twenty-first-century type of war in which there is never a clear victor and media images can be as important as the battle itself. Raw and beautifully rendered, Pumpkinflowers will take its place among classic war narratives by George Orwell, Philip Caputo, and Tim O’Brien. It is an unflinching look at the way we conduct war today.

Mitch spürt, dass sie denselben Schmerz und dieselbe große Trauer in sich trägt, die auch ihm jeden Tag aufs Neue das Herz zerreißt.

Als sie vor eine große Entscheidung gestellt wird, ist Paige unsicher: kann sie Mitch vertrauen, der ihr so fest zur Seite steht? Oder soll sie ihren Weg alleine gehen, weil sie kein neues Glück verdient?

Title: Don Rodriguez: Chronicles of Shadow Valley: Fantastical and romantic tales of a Spain That Never Was, with a quintessentially British Quixote Series: #1 of The Birth Of Fantasy: Lord Dunsany's Seminal Work Author: Lord Dunsany Narrator: Chirag Patel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 11 minutes Release date: October 10, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Lord Dunsany was the progenitor of modern fantasy fiction. From Tolkein to Gaiman, from Le Guin to Moorcock, his words inspired an entire genre of modern dark fantasy. A fun adventure in a Spain that never was, in the vein of Dumas and Stevenson, with more than a taste of Cervantes. Don Rodriguez is a young nobleman who is banished from the family castle, and must set out with his rapier and mandolin to win his own estate, and perhaps even a bride. Along with his trusty servant Morano, he journeys far into the heart of the mythical Shadow Valley. Echoes of The Princess Bride resonate throughout. “How to describe this book? It's a pretty problem. As might a child, after dashing off to play on a bright summer morning—hours splashing in the river, exploring the forests, duelling with sticks against the Infidel (or the child next door if the Infidel be not available), winning a week's pocket-money at marbles and losing it again—as such a child, when asked 'what did you do today?' simply shrugs and replies 'oh, nothing much'; just so should I feel, dear Reader, were I to attempt to pin down the precise qualities of this book for you. It doesn't wash. And yet I must make the attempt. I can say this much: this is a book to be approached lightly. The magic Lord Dunsany weaves is delicate, and you may raise an eyebrow and start to protest that you know the history of Spain, and the events he relates cannot possibly have taken place in the manner he describes. Moreover the characters in his story are surely stereotypes, mere caricatures, and no such people can possibly have walked those dusty roads, and even if they did they cannot have subsisted merely on bacon. Not possible, you say. But when you read of Morano's noble frying pan, of bacon cooked beneath the stars and eaten at the wayfarer's green table, you might find that you believe in Bacon after all.” [Iain, Goodreads]

In their important book, they offer a new approach they call decision-driven analytics. Counterintuitively, they argue that the key to making good decisions with data is to start by putting data in the background. Drawing from their own research and teaching, as well as real-world business cases, De Langhe and Puntoni offer four pillars of decision-driven analytics and guide you around common mistakes that have held back many organizations from using data for impact. In Decision-Driven Analytics, you will learn how to avoid common pitfalls in data-driven decision-making; close the gap between managers and decision-making on one side, and data scientists and data analytics on the other; enhance the impact of data analytics on business outcomes; and think without data to make better decisions. You'll also learn how to prepare for artificial intelligence's impact on data analytics and evaluate the costs and benefits of decision-driven analytics.

An illuminating listen.” — AudioFile ''Impeccably researched. . . . A fascinating book and an important one.” — Washington Post “[A] brilliant, kaleidoscopic debut. . . . Nagle’s narrative is lucid and moving. . . . A showstopper.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review Most Anticipated Book of the Fall: Washington Post, People, Los Angeles Times, Parade, Bustle, Book Riot A powerful work of reportage and American history that braids the story of the forced removal of Native Americans onto treaty lands in the nation’s earliest days, and a small-town murder in the 1990s that led to a Supreme Court ruling reaffirming Native rights to that land more than a century later Before 2020, American Indian reservations made up roughly 55 million acres of land in the United States. Nearly 200 million acres are reserved for National Forests—in the emergence of this great nation, our government set aside more land for trees than for Indigenous peoples. In the 1830s Muscogee people were rounded up by the US military at gunpoint and forced into exile halfway across the continent. At the time, they were promised this new land would be theirs for as long as the grass grew and the waters ran. But that promise was not kept. When Oklahoma was created on top of Muscogee land, the new state claimed their reservation no longer existed. Over a century later, a Muscogee citizen was sentenced to death for murdering another Muscogee citizen on tribal land. His defense attorneys argued the murder occurred on the reservation of his tribe, and therefore Oklahoma didn’t have the jurisdiction to execute him. Oklahoma asserted that the reservation no longer existed. In the summer of 2020, the Supreme Court settled the dispute. Its ruling that would ultimately underpin multiple reservations covering almost half the land in Oklahoma, including Nagle’s own Cherokee Nation.  Here Rebecca Nagle recounts the generations-long fight for tribal land and sovereignty in eastern Oklahoma. By chronicling both the contemporary legal battle and historic acts of Indigenous resistance, By the Fire We Carry stands as a landmark work of American history. The story it tells exposes both the wrongs that our nation has committed and the Native-led battle for justice that has shaped our country.  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: The Story of a Conscience Author: Ambrose Bierce Narrator: Christopher Ragland Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 17 minutes Release date: September 9, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce was born on 24th June 1842 at Horse Cave Creek in Meigs County, Ohio. His parents were poor but they introduced him to literature at an early age, instilling in him a deep appreciation of books, the written word and the elegance of language. Growing up in Koscuisko County, Indiana poverty and religion were defining features of his childhood, and he would later describe his parents as “unwashed savages” and fanatically religious, showing him little affection but always quick to punish. He came to resent religion, and his introduction to literature appears to be their only positive effect.At age 15 Bierce left home to become a printer’s devil, mixing ink and fetching type at The Northern Indian, a small Ohio paper. Falsely accused of theft he returned to his farm and spent time sending out work in the hopes of being published.His Uncle Lucius advised he be sent to the Kentucky Military Institute. A year later he was commissioned as an Officer. As the Civil War started Bierce enlisted in the 9th Indiana Infantry Regiment. In April 1862 Bierce fought at the Battle of Shiloh, an experience which, though terrifying, became the source of several short stories. Two years later he sustained a serious head wound and was off duty for several months. He was discharged in early 1865. A later expedition to inspect military outposts across the Great Plains took him all the way to San Francisco. He remained there to become involved with publishing and editing and to marry, Mary Ellen on Christmas Day 1871. They had a child, Day, the following year. In 1872 the family moved to England for 3 years where he wrote for Fun magazine. His son, Leigh, was born, and first book, ‘The Fiend’s Delight’, was published.They returned to San Francisco and to work for a number of papers where he gained admiration for his crime reporting. In 1887 he began a column at the William Randolph Hearst’s San Francisco Examiner. Bierce’s marriage fell apart when he discovered compromising letters to his wife from a secret admirer. The following year, 1889 his son Day committed suicide, depressed by romantic rejection.In 1891 Bierce wrote and published the collection of 26 short stories which included ‘An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge’. Success and further works including poetry followed. Bierce with Hearst’s resources helped uncover a financial plot by a railroad to turn 130 million dollars of loans into a handout. Confronted by the railroad and asked to name his price Bierce answered “my price is $130 million dollars. If, when you are ready to pay, I happen to be out of town, you may hand it over to my friend, the Treasurer of the United States”. He now began his first foray as a fabulist, publishing ‘Fantastic Fables’ in 1899. But tragedy again struck two years later when his second son Leigh died of pneumonia relating to his alcoholism.He continued to write short stories and poetry and also published ‘The Devil’s Dictionary’. At the age of 71, in 1913 Bierce departed from Washington, D.C., for a tour of the battlefields where he had fought during the civil war. At the city of Chihuahua he wrote his last known communication, a letter to a friend. It’s closing words were “as to me, I leave here tomorrow for an unknown destination,” Ambrose Bierce then vanished without trace.

Richter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 46 minutes Release date: August 27, 2024 Genres: Counseling & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: The Book of Judges narrates one of the most chaotic and morally dark eras of Israel's story. Into this morally-ambiguous time comes one of the most unlikely leaders of the biblical text—the prophet Deborah. Also a wife, mother, priest, and judge, Deborah responds to her call and transforms chaos into order by leading Israel in one of the most pivotal victories of her time. Join beloved scholar and professor Dr. Sandra L. Richter as she illustrates the era of the Judges by means of the archaeological record, historical geography, cultural context, and the hard facts of warfare in the ancient world. This eight-session Bible study draws you immediately into the grand tale of Deborah and challenges you, as a Christ-follower, to ask yourself where God wants to expand his kingdom in your realm of influence today. You will consider and answer three critical questions: - What territory can you see from where you're standing that you know belongs to the Kingdom, but is not yet won? - Is it worth fighting for? - Are you willing to step out on faith and trust God for the victory? The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately.

Nunca antes foi tão crucial entender e dominar as estratégias para lidar com o estresse e cultivar a inteligência emocional, pois elas desempenham um papel fundamental em nossa capacidade de prosperar diante das adversidades e choques. Importância da gestão do estresse e inteligência emocional no mundo moderno Vivemos em uma era onde a pressão vem de todas as direcionadas: carreiras competitivas, responsabilidades familiares, influência das mídias sociais e as exigências do cotidiano. O estresse tornou-se um companheiro constante, afetando nossa saúde mental, emocional e física de maneira significativa. A incapacidade de gerenciar efetivamente o estresse pode levar a uma série de problemas, incluindo ansiedade, depressão, esgotamento e até mesmo efeitos na saúde cardiovascular. A inteligência emocional, por sua vez, assume um papel crucial em como enfrentamos esses desafios. Ela não apenas nos capacita a reconhecer e regular nossas próprias emoções, mas também nos ajuda a compreender as emoções dos outros e a manter relacionamentos saudáveis. A capacidade de navegar por situações emocionalmente carregadas, comunicar-se eficazmente e tomar decisões sobressair é um diferencial valioso, tanto na esfera pessoal quanto profissional. O que é estresse e por que afeta nossa saúde e bem-estar O estresse é uma resposta natural do organismo a situações que enfrentam como desafiadoras ou ameaçadoras. No entanto, quando o estresse se torna causado ou controlado, pode gerar uma cascata de reações negativas em nosso corpo e mente. Os hormônios do estresse, como o cortisol, são liberados em excesso, afetando nossa capacidade de concentração, sono, digestão e até mesmo nosso sistema imunológico. A natureza cumulativa do estresse emocional pode resultar em esgotamento, ansiedade e depressão, minando gradualmente nossa saúde e bem-estar geral. Portanto, aprenda a identificar os sinais de estresse e adotar estratégias eficazes para lidar com ele não é apenas um luxo, mas uma necessidade urgente para uma vida equilibrada e satisfatória. A relação entre inteligência emocional e resiliência A inteligência emocional atua como alicerce para a resiliência - nossa capacidade de enfrentar desafios, recuperar-se de contratempos e crescer com as experiências adversárias. Quando possuímos uma compreensão profunda de nossas próprias emoções e somos capazes de gerenciá-las de maneira saudável, nos tornamos mais adaptáveis às situações imprevistas. A resiliência não implica evitar o estresse ou as dificuldades, mas sim abordá-los com uma mentalidade positiva, controlada e orientada para soluções. Ao longo deste ebook, exploraremos as estratégias práticas que sustentam a gestão do estresse e o desenvolvimento da inteligência emocional. Cada capítulo oferecerá insights valiosos e exercícios concretos para ajudá-lo a cultivar um estilo de vida mais equilibrado, empoderado e emocionalmente inteligente.
