    Keeping Kyrie: A True Story of Faith, Family, and Foster Care , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 450min
    How much can a life change in just five years? For Emily Christensen, that span began with her conversion to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and ended with the adoption of six children with special needs. But the highs and lows between those two points are almost too hard to believe: enduring cochlear implant surgeries, meeting and marrying the man of her dreams, grieving the death of both of her parents, becoming a chaplain, and fostering more than 70 children. At the core of the story is an account of her ongoing efforts to save the life of her youngest daughter, Kyrie (pronounced keer-ree-ay). Born with captivating eyes and a full head of curly hair, Kyrie also came into the world with Pierre Robin Sequence, a disorder where her lower face and airway were not properly formed. First as a foster mom and then as an adoptive mother, Christensen has fought her way just to help her daughter breathe. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Emily Christensen.

    True Biz
    'Part tender coming of age story, part electrifying tale of political awakening, part heartfelt love letter to Deaf culture, True Biz is a wholly a wonder' Celeste Ng True biz (adj/exclamation; American Sign Language): really, seriously, definitely, real-talk True Biz plunges readers into the halls of a residential school for the deaf, where they'll meet Charlie, a rebellious transfer student who's never met another deaf person before; Austin, the school's golden boy, whose world is rocked when his baby sister is born hearing; and February, the headmistress, who is fighting to keep her school open and her marriage intact, but might not be able to do both. As a series of crises both personal and political threaten to unravel each of them, Charlie, Austin, and February find their lives inextricable from one another - and changed forever. This is a story of sign language and lip-reading, cochlear implants and civil rights, isolation and injustice, first love and loss, and, above all, great persistence, daring, and joy. Absorbing and assured, idiosyncratic and relatable, True Biz is an unforgettable journey into the Deaf community and a universal celebration of human connection.

    In this hour, What's it like to be part human and part machine? Our first answer comes from Brian Christian. He's the author of The Most Human Human: What Talking with Computers Teaches Us about What It Means to Be Alive. He tells Steve Paulson about one of the most famous philosophical experiments – the Turing Test.Next, MIT Professor Sherry Turkle is fascinated by our interactions with machines. She's just released the third book in a trilogy of books on the subject. This one is called Alone Together: Why We Expect More from Technology and Less from Each Other. She tells Anne Strainchamps about what she calls the mashup of online and offline lives.Then, what if digital communication felt as real as being touched. To Michael Chorost, author of the book World Wide Mind, that's the real question. Chlorost has two cochlear implants, computers in his head to let him hear. He tells Steve Paulson those implants make him a living example of man/machine integration. Finally, Duke University neuroscientist Miguel Nikolelis takes it even further. In his book Beyond Boundaries he talks about the possibility of upgrading our brains with computer chips. He tells Jim Fleming about an experience he had twenty-five years ago when he was a medical student in Brazil. [Broadcast Date: May 18, 2012] Language: English.

    The Universal Sense: How Hearing Shapes the Mind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 656min
    The surprising truth about how the things our ears hear affect what's between them. Every day, we are surrounded by millions of sounds - ambient ones like the rumble of the train and the hum of air conditioner, as well as more attention-grabbing sounds, such as human speech, music, and sirens. But how do we process what we hear every day? And how does it affect our brains and our minds? This book answers such revealing questions as: How do bats see in 3D with their ears and how did that lead to the development of medical ultrasound? What is it about the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard that makes us cringe? Why do city folks have trouble sleeping in the country, and vice versa? Why can't you get that song out of your head? Starting with the basics of auditory biology, neuroscientist and musician Seth Horowitz explains how sound affects us, and in turn, how we've learned to manipulate sound: into music, commercial jingles, car horns, and modern inventions like cochlear implants, ultrasound scans, and the mosquito ringtone. Whether you're standing in a crowded subway or a quiet meadow, you'll never hear the same way after listening to this book. The Universal Sense gives new insight into what the sounds of our world have to do with the way we think, feel, and interact. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dean Sluyter.
