Skyhook , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 694min
The "boomerang box," a high-tech computer program designed to save a plane experiencing flight trouble, is Dr. Ben Cole's baby. After a test run over the Gulf of Alaska goes awry, he suspects someone has sabotaged the plane's computer systems. And mysteriously, and almost simultaneously, April Rosen is horrified to learn that her father's plane has narrowly escaped a mid-air collision over the same patch of sea. While Dr. Cole considers the uncomfortable notion that someone within his own company might wish him harm, Rosen begins her search for the cause of her father's hair-raising "near miss." But what both don't know is this: their fears have a common source. They are being watched by people in the Pentagon, who believe that the two might stumble upon the secret that will destroy them all before Skyhook has a chance to succeed. What is Skyhook's real purpose? Is it commercial or military? And will its early implementation compromise the safety of flyers everywhere? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John J. Nance.

Michail Afanasjewitsch Bulgakow: Berichte aus den Tiefen der russischen Literatur 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 114min
Ich glaube, dass unsere menschliche Zivilisation ähnlich wie die der Bienen organisiert ist, dass auch hier etwas gesammelt und regelmäßig abgepumpt wird. Nur was ist das für eine Substanz, was ist der Honig der Menschen, wie sieht er aus, wie schmeckt er? Ihre Geschichten sind dieser Honig. Auch Menschen teilen sich, wie die Bienen auf, es gibt unter ihnen Krieger, Soldaten, Arbeiter, Reisende und Mütter, die für den Nachwuchs sorgen. Sie alle produzieren Geschichten. Und dann gibt es da noch einige Schriftsteller, die ihre Geschichten aufschreiben, sie in Buchstabenhonig verwandeln. Sie sorgen für die Nachhaltigkeit in der Welt, dafür, dass, wenn wir nicht mehr da sind, unsere Taten und Wörter, unsere Geschichten, dieser ganze Buchstabenhonig ein anderes, uns unbekanntes Leben versüßt. Leider sind die meisten Schriftsteller völlige Luschen, es gibt nur ganz wenige auf der Welt, die richtig guten Honig machen können und deren Werke Unsterblichkeit beanspruchen können. Einer von ihnen ist Michail Bulgakow. Als Vierzehnjähriger habe ich den Autor Michail Bulgakow und seinen magischen Roman "Meister und Margarita" verschlungen. Es war damals das wichtigste russische Buch, das meine Generation wie kein anderes Werk geprägt und für den Rest des Lebens beeinflusst hat. deutsch.

How Evolution Explains Everything About Life: From Darwin's Brilliant Idea to Today's Epic Theory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 426min
How did we get here? All cultures have a creation story, but a little over 150 years ago, Charles Darwin introduced a revolutionary new one. We, and all living things, exist because of the action of evolution on the first simple life form and its descendants. We now know that it has taken 3.8 billion years of work by the forces of evolution to turn what was once a lump of barren rock into the rich diversity of plants, animals and microbes that surround us. In the process evolution has created all manner of useful adaptions, from biological computers (brains) to a system to capture energy from the sun (photosynthesis). But how does evolution actually work? In How Evolution Explains Everything About Life, leading biologists and New Scientist take you on a journey of a lifetime, exploring the questions of whether life is inevitable or a one-off fluke and how it got kick-started. Does evolution have a purpose or direction? Are selfish genes really the driving force of evolution? And is evolution itself evolving?

The Cluetrain Manifesto: 10th Anniversary Edition , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 581min
The Cluetrain Manifesto began as a website in 1999, when Rick Levine, Chris Locke, Doc Searls, and David Weinberger posted 95 theses on the web, asserting that there was a new reality of the networked marketplace. They set out to overturn hierarchical marketing with ideas like: Markets consist of human beings, not demographic sectors. Companies need to realize their markets are often laughing - at them. Markets do not want to talk to flacks and hucksters. They want to participate in the conversations going on behind the corporate firewall. We are immune to advertising. Just forget it. The authors present a spirited, original, and wonderfully irreverent conversation that will challenge, provoke, and forever change your outlook on the digital economy. A rich tapestry of anecdotes, object lessons, parodies, insights, and predictions, The Cluetrain Manifesto illustrates how the internet has radically reframed the seemingly immutable laws of business - and what business needs to know to weather the seismic aftershocks. A best seller when it was published in 2000, The Cluetrain Manifesto remains more relevant than ever. Ten years after its original publication, the anniversary edition includes a new introduction and chapters by the authors, and commentary by Jake McKee, J. P. Rangaswami, and Dan Gillmor. Essential reading for anybody interested in the internet and e-commerce, this book is for anyone navigating the topography of the wired marketplace. ungekürzt. Language: English.
