The Sentinelese: The History of the Uncontacted People on North Sentinel Island , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min

There is no record of Marco Polo ever visiting the Andaman Islands, so his brief description of the islanders must have been drawn from a secondary source. They were, he wrote, “a most brutish and savage race, having heads, eyes, and teeth like those of dogs. They are very cruel, and kill and eat every foreigner whom they can lay their hands upon.”Most subsequent travelers and travelogues have tended to agree, although in an age of inclusion and diversity, the modern understanding and appreciation of the indigenous Andamanese is somewhat more sympathetic. Nonetheless, that one common theme has persisted, in particular in the many colonial-era chronicles, which were all written at a time when Darwin and his contemporaries were rationalizing evolution and evolutionary divergence. How could it be, they ask, that a small pocket of the human race could be content to linger so far behind in the journey of human development? The Andaman and Nicobar Islands comprise a tiny archipelago of some 200 islands in the Indian Ocean. They are located in a seemingly insignificant spot in the Bay of Bengal, comprising a combined area of only 3,500 square miles, but the islands are a tropical idyll, populated by dark Indians drawn mainly from the east coast, with a curious aboriginal people who appear more African than Asian. The islands have been within sight of international shipping routes since the very birth of ocean travel, and yet, until the arrival of the great European trading enterprises, the archipelago remained virtually unvisited and absolutely unsettled by any other than its indigenous inhabitants.The Sentinelese: The History of the Uncontacted People on North Sentinel Island profiles the indigenous people, famous attempts to contact them, and what’s known and unknown about them. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Sentinelese like never before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dan Gallagher.

Uncontacted , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 423min

Two primitive tribes living half a world apart. One guarded revelation that was never meant to be seen. And a calamity about to be unleashed. In the jungle cities of the Amazon, thousands of tribal descendants suddenly drop dead at the exact same moment for no apparent reason. Strange truths start to emerge that lead respected ecologist, Antonio Medina, into the deepest reaches of the rain forest, to a tribe that has seen virtually zero contact with the outside world. On the other side of the planet, in the Indian Ocean, anthropologist Stel Foster is on a similar quest. When he learns of unlikely ties to the tribe in Brazil that his long-time professional rival, Antonio Medina, is investigating, he agrees to work together with the ecologist. Antonio isn't sure he can trust Foster, but together they are forced to solve a perilous puzzle, with the most alarming piece being two halves of a strange artifact safeguarded by both tribes for thousands of years. Even worse, a powerful secret society will stop at nothing to control the ultimate truth the artifact holds. With options running short and time even shorter, our comprehension of what it means to be human is about to shift forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jo Nelson.

In the wake of Earth's collapse into chaos, Captain Hoshiko Stuart made the mistake of speaking her mind - and was exiled six months from Sol to a naval base in an unexplored and uncontacted sector. Placed in command of a single squadron of starships, she expected nothing but boredom. But when she discovers an alien race threatening to exterminate all other races within the sector, Hoshiko and her squadron are drawn into a war to stop them, even if it means forging an alliance with aliens who may themselves become a threat to humanity and building an empire that may alienate her from her family once and for all. The Black Sheep is the third stand-alone book in A Learning Experience. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christian Rummel.

To the Best of Our Knowledge: Amazonia, Hörbuch, Digital, 51min

In this hour, on assignment for National Geographic, reporter Scott Wallace joined an expedition led by Brazilian explorer Sidney Posseulo - a man whos life's mission is to protect the Amazon's indigenous people. They traveled deep into the Amazon, risking death, in search of one of the last uncontacted tribes, the Arrow People. Next, in the 1980s anthropologist Jeremy Narby went to the Peruvian Amazon to investigate the plight of indigenous people. Narby's experience with the Ashaninca Indians transformed his life, especially once he tried their powerful hallucinogen ayahuasca. He says the experience forced him to question the reductionist, materialist paradigm of Western knowledge. Then, Ann Patchett's State of Wonder is the story of a young scientist working for a pharmaceutical company who's sent to Brazil to track down another scientist who may have discovered a miraculous fertility drug. It's a fable about medical ethics and self-discovery. Patchett also describes her own experience visiting the Amazon.Finally, Alfred Wallace was the co-discover, with Charles Darwin, of the theory of natural selection. Wallace was also a great 19th century naturalist who spent years collecting speciments in the Amazon River Basin and later in the Malay Archipelago. Unlike the aristocratic Darwin, Wallace always had to work for a living. Historian of science James Moore says Wallace remains a mysterious figure, unlike the more famous Darwin.

Touching the Jaguar: Transforming Fear into Action to Change Your Life and the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 420min

“This eloquent book inspires us to create a new reality of what it means to be humans on this magnificent planet.” (Deepak Chopra) This all happened while Perkins was a Peace Corps volunteer. Then he became an "economic hit man" (EHM), convincing developing countries to build huge projects that put them perpetually in debt to the World Bank and other US-controlled institutions. Although he'd learned in business school that this was the best model for economic development, he came to understand it as a new form of colonialism. When he later returned to the Amazon, he saw the destructive impact of his work. But a much more profound experience emerged: Perkins was inspired by a previously uncontacted Amazon tribe that “touched its jaguar” by uniting with age-old enemies to defend its territory against invading oil and mining companies. For the first time, Perkins details how shamanism converted him from an EHM to a crusader for transforming a failing Death Economy (exploiting resources that are declining at accelerating rates) into a Life Economy (cleaning up pollution, recycling, and developing green technologies). He discusses the power our perceptions have for molding reality. And he provides a strategy for each of us to change our lives and defend our territory — the Earth — against current destructive policies and systems. ungekürzt. Language: English.
