    Body on Baker Street: A Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 520min
    Gemma Doyle and Jayne Wilson are busy managing both the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop and Emporium on Baker Street and the adjoining Mrs. Hudson's Tea Room in anticipation of the upcoming book signing with the illustrious Renalta Van Markoff, the author of the controversial Hudson and Holmes series. However, tragedy strikes during the author Q&A session of the signing when a dedicated Sherlockian verbally attacks the series for disgracing Sherlock's legacy and is then publicly humiliated when the author triumphantly lashes back and gains the upper hand - that is, until she collapses on the table and is pronounced dead. Fortunately, there's no shortage of suspects - the author's bullied personal assistant, her frustrated publicist, her hapless publisher, a handsome book dealer, an obsessively rabid fan, and a world of Sherlock enthusiasts with strong objections to Renalta's depiction of the Great Detective - so the shrewd sleuthing duo quickly begin to eliminate the impossible and deduce the truth . ungekürzt.

    Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks, Hörbuch, Digital, 394min
    Do you believe in ghosts? Do we really live on in some conscious form after we die, and is that form capable of communicating with the world of the living? Aye, right.... That was Jack Parlabane's stance on the matter, anyway. But this was before he found himself in the more compromising position of being not only dead himself, but worse: dead with an exclusive still to file. From his position on high, Parlabane relates the events leading up to his demise, largely concerning the efforts of charismatic psychic Gabriel Lafayette to reconcile the scientific with the spiritual by submitting to controlled laboratory tests. Parlabane is brought in as an observer, due to his capacities as both a sceptic and an expert on deception, but he soon finds his certainties crumbling and his assumptions turned upside down as he encounters phenomena for which he can deduce no rational explanation. One thing he knows for certain, however. Death is not the end - it's the ultimate undercover assignment. Language: English. Narrator: Billy Boyd.

    SUM: Adhesion (Lisa Dwan) / Conservation (Clarke Peters), Hörbuch, Digital, 10min
    Two stories from SUM: Tales from the Afterlives by David Eagleman. In 'Adhesion', read by Lisa Dwan, we are the products of large beings that camp out on asteroids and call themselves Collectors.

With wit and humanity, he asks the key questions about existence, hope, technology and love. These stories are full of big ideas and bold imagination. This release is one of 20 pairings of readings from the audiobook, which assembles a stellar cast of narrators who bring the scenarios of SUM brilliantly alive: Gillian Anderson, Emily Blunt, Nick Cave, Jarvis Cocker, Jack Davenport, Lisa Dwan, David Eagleman, Noel Fielding, Kerry Fox, Stephen Fry, Clarke Peters, Lemn Sissay and Harriet Walter.

    House Histories for Beginners (eBook, ePUB)
    Popular television programmes are highlighting the satisfaction that can be gained from investigating the history of houses, and interest in the subject is growing. Archives, too, are becoming ever more accessible under the impetus of the internet. As the subject covers a broad field, the authors have set out to include advice on those aspects that usually apply to a project and others that will be of particular use for beginners. The reader is guided through every stage of research, from the first exploration of the archives to the completion of the project. Suggestions are also included on how to present the findings - a house history makes a very attractive gift. The authors describe how to deduce the age of a property (it is very seldom directly recorded when a house was built) and characteristics of research on particular types of property - such as cottages, manor houses, inns, mills, former church properties, and farms - are discussed. In one example, research demonstrated that a farm was likely to have been a Domesday manor - a discovery achieved using records accessible to any beginner.

    Occipital Circus: And Other Stories Regarding Phrenology , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 661min
    A truly eclectic, psychological horror story collection, in which the true monsters are those that skulk about the darkest wrinkles and fissures of the human brain...Decades ago, the sciences of the brain were in their infancy. One such science was phrenology. Phrenology concerned the study of the skull to deduce the qualities of the brain, and thus the aptitudes of the person themselves. It seems silly today, but it laid the foundation for later work, including the discipline of modern nanoscience and embodied cognition.Listening to triggers neural responses in the brain that mimic the stimuli of actual activities. Will you subject yourself to the cerebral storm? Leaving your mind awash in the shadows and phantoms of reality, flickering electrical impulses to tease your senses as you make your way down a dark and winding path into the mire of cerebral horror.You’ll find no ghosts here. No pale, cold vampires with fetid breath. No werewolves baying at the moon. Only the tangling cobwebs and mildewed, dusty chambers of the one place mankind may never truly understand. Our own minds. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Norman Beck. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/229254/bk_acx0_229254_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Percezione del consumatore sulla tecnologia bancaria innovativa
    Il technology banking è un fenomeno recente nel settore bancario indiano. Fa parte della digitalizzazione. Le nuove riforme economiche del 1991 hanno aperto la strada al technology banking. I consumatori con l'aiuto della tecnologia bancaria sono in grado di fare operazioni bancarie ovunque e in qualsiasi momento. Gli studi sottolineano che sono i giovani, istruiti, maschi ad alto reddito ad averne beneficiato di più. Il Kerala è uno stato con un alto status socio-economico. Ci sono studi sulla tecnologia bancaria relativi al Kerala e il presente studio è stato condotto nel distretto di Thrissur selezionando 60 clienti attraverso un campionamento conveniente. I dati secondari necessari per lo studio sono stati raccolti da varie pubblicazioni della RBI. La percezione bancaria generale e l'accettazione della tecnologia bancaria da parte di vari gruppi socio-economici in base al sesso, età, area di residenza, istruzione, attività e reddito. Ai fini dell'analisi, il metodo percentuale, la scala likert e l'ipotesi è stata testata utilizzando il chi-quadro. Si deduce che esistono disparità socio-economiche nell'accettazione della tecnologia bancaria, il che richiede maggiori sforzi per renderla vantaggiosa per tutti.

    Edgar Allan Poe: The Life of a Genius Who Was Misunderstood , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 189min
    Edgar Allan Poe is a name synonymous with horror stories. In popular culture he is imaged with a black, ominous raven on his arm, while the slight smirk on his face could be an indication of a secret he knows which we don't. His influence ranges beyond just appearing in a few episodes of The Simpsons and being the inspiration for the name of a football team. The story of his life is almost as interesting as his own poems and works of fiction. How many broken hearts did he leave behind? Has science been able to prove the cause of his mysterious death? Who is the stealthy hooded man who left a bottle of cognac and three roses at his grave for 75 years? The mysteries of Poe's own life have fueled the persona surrounding his character. Discover old letters that were exchanged between him and his friends, letters he wrote to the women who loved him, and the circumstances of his own death. Deduce for yourself whether the literary genius that is celebrated the world over was a madman or just an ordinary man of letters who was trying to make a living. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim D Johnston. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/050539/bk_acx0_050539_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Black Bank: A Sherlock: The Second Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 82min
    The future has not changed crime. Bad men do bad things for petty reasons and get petty punishments for their crimes. Moving forward from that point, we can come to only one conclusion: that man has certain traits inherent to his patterns of behavior free from the constraints of time and space. So, then, we must deduce that the methods of catching said criminal should not have changed as well. Put the pieces left behind by mistakes, or lack thereof, together and slowly you gain a view of the man who committed the crime. With time comes crime, and with crime comes detectives. I, sir, am Sherlock Holmes, the best detective who ever lived, and you, my good sir, have killed someone. Shall we start to put the pieces, or lack thereof, together? Sherlock Holmes A man claiming to be the fictional detective from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories has surfaced in London and is hot on the trail of a murderer. He has accused the chief of police of the crime and has only a short amount of time to solve it! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Hugh Trethowan.

    Thought X: Fictions and Hypotheticals (Science-Into-Fiction, Book 6) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 540min
    Science is always telling stories. Whether in the creation myths of evolution or the Big Bang, or in the eureka moments of science history, narrative just as much as metaphor is a key tool in the scientist's surprisingly literary toolkit. Perhaps the most interesting use of story is the thought experiment, the intuition pump, that draws on the most instinctive parts of the imagination to crack otherwise perplexing problems. From Newton's Bucket to Maxwell's Demon, from Einstein's Lift to Schrodinger's Cat, all are examples of 'fiction' being used at the highest level, not just to explain, but to deduce, to prove. In this unique anthology, authors have collaborated with leading scientists, to bounce literary, human narratives against purely theoretical ones, alloying together real stories with abstract ones, to produce truly extraordinary results. Also featuring stories by Annie Clarkson, Marie Louise Cookson, Claire Dean, Andy Hedgecock, Sarah Schofield, Zoe Gilbert, Sandra Alland, Margaret Wilkinson, and Anneliese Mackintosh; plus afterwords by Professors Stewart Boogert, Sarah Bridle, Seth Bullock, Steven French, Roman Frigg, Frank Jackson, Michela Massimi, Tara Shears, Jonathan Wolff and Ana Jofre. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Banks, Nicola Bryant. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/029865/bk_adbl_029865_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
