Hallucinations , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 589min
Have you ever seen something that wasn't really there? Heard someone call your name in an empty house? Sensed someone following you and turned around to find nothing? Hallucinations don't belong wholly to the insane. Much more commonly, they are linked to sensory deprivation, intoxication, illness, or injury. In some conditions, hallucinations can lead to religious epiphanies or even the feeling of leaving one's own body. Humans have always sought such life-changing visions and for thousands of years have used hallucinogenic compounds to achieve them. In Hallucinations, with his usual elegance, curiosity, and compassion, Dr Oliver Sacks weaves together stories of his patients and of his own mind-altering experiences to illuminate what hallucinations tell us about the organisation and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture's folklore and art and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all, a vital part of the human condition. ungekürzt.

8Men , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 589min
What if a single group of conspirators was behind nearly every political happening since World War II? What if this secret society of comprised leading men from every major industry, from oil to the media to the CIA? 8Men reveals the sinister possibilities that lurk in the shadows of recent American history. Franklin D. Roosevelt could have prevented the attack on Pearl Harbor; the same influencers who ensured John F. Kennedy’s election later orchestrated his assassination; the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s death was not, in fact, because of his leadership in the civil rights movement. Forget everything you think you know about the second half of the twentieth century, and follow young cadet Ricky Teed as he becomes embroiled in the dubious morals of the 8Men organization. A champion of old-fashioned patriotism, Teed follows orders like the soldier he is—until his missions start compromising his ideals. The goal of the 8Men is to preserve American values above foreign ideology. But how exactly is America greater than its foreign counterparts? And why is killing necessary to preserve this greatness? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Leonard. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/110759/bk_acx0_110759_sample.mp3.

Unteachable , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 589min
An edgy, sexy USA Today best seller about falling for the one person you can't have. Maise O'Malley just turned 18, but she's felt like a grown-up her entire life. The summer before senior year, she has plans: Get into a great film school, convince her mom to go into rehab, and absolutely do not, under any circumstances, screw up her own future. But life has a way of throwing her plans into free-fall. When Maise meets Evan at a carnival one night, their chemistry is immediate, intense, and short-lived. Which is exactly how she likes it: no strings. But afterward, she can't get Evan out of her head. He’s taught her that a hookup can be something more. It can be an unexpected connection with someone who truly understands her. Someone who sees beyond her bravado to the scared but strong girl inside. That someone turns out to be her new film class teacher, Mr. Evan Wilke. Maise and Evan resolve to keep their hands off each other, but the attraction is too much to bear. Together, they're real and genuine; apart, they’re just actors playing their parts for everyone else. And their masks are slipping. People start to notice. Rumors fly. When the truth comes to light in a shocking way, they may learn they were just playing parts for each other, too. Smart, sexy, and provocative, Unteachable is about what happens when a love story goes off-script. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Grace Grant.

Hallucinations , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 589min
Have you ever seen something that wasn't really there? Heard someone call your name in an empty house? Sensed someone following you and turned around to find nothing? Hallucinations don't belong wholly to the insane. Much more commonly, they are linked to sensory deprivation, intoxication, illness, or injury. People with migraines may see shimmering arcs of light or tiny, Lilliputian figures of animals and people. People with failing eyesight, paradoxically, may become immersed in a hallucinatory visual world. Hallucinations can be brought on by a simple fever or even the act of waking or falling asleep, when people have visions ranging from luminous blobs of color to beautifully detailed faces or terrifying ogres. Those who are bereaved may receive comforting "visits" from the departed. In some conditions, hallucinations can lead to religious epiphanies or even the feeling of leaving one's own body. Humans have always sought such life-changing visions, and for thousands of years have used hallucinogenic compounds to achieve them. As a young doctor in California in the 1960s, Oliver Sacks had both a personal and a professional interest in psychedelics. These, along with his early migraine experiences, launched a lifelong investigation into the varieties of hallucinatory experience. Here, with his usual elegance, curiosity, and compassion, Dr. Sacks weaves together stories of his patients and of his own mind-altering experiences to illuminate what hallucinations tell us about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture's folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all, a vital part of the human condition.
