The Value of Everything: Makers and Takers in the Global Economy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 694min
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Value of Everything by Mariana Mazzucato, read by Amy Finegan. Who really creates wealth in our world? And how do we decide the value of what they do? At the heart of today's financial and economic crisis is a problem hiding in plain sight. In modern capitalism, value extraction is rewarded more highly than value creation: the productive process that drives a healthy economy and society. From companies driven solely to maximise shareholder value to astronomically high prices of medicines justified through big pharma's 'value pricing', we misidentify taking with making and have lost sight of what value really means. Once a central plank of economic thought, this concept of value - what it is, why it matters to us - is simply no longer discussed. Yet, argues Mariana Mazzucato in this penetrating and passionate new book, if we are to reform capitalism - radically to transform an increasingly sick system rather than continue feeding it - we urgently need to rethink where wealth comes from. Which activities create it, which extract it, which destroy it? Answers to these questions are key if we want to replace the current parasitic system with a type of capitalism that is more sustainable, more symbiotic - that works for us all. The Value of Everything will reignite a long-needed debate about the kind of world we really want to live in. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amy Finegan.

White Doves at Morning, Hörbuch, Digital, 411min
In a startling departure, James Lee Burke has written an epic story of love, hate, and survival set against the tumultuous background of the Civil War and Reconstruction. At the center of the tale are James Lee Burke's own ancestors, Robert Perry, who comes from a slave-owning family of wealth and privilege, and Willie Burke, born of Irish immigrants, a poor boy who is as irreverent as he is brave and decent. Despite personal and political conflicts, both men join the Confederate Army, determined not to back down in their commitment to their moral beliefs, to their friends, and to the abolitionist woman with whom both are infatuated. Willie's friend Flower Jamison, a beautiful young black slave, is owned by - and fathered by, although he will not admit it - Ira Jamison. Owner of Angola Plantation, Ira Jamison returns after the war and transforms his plantation into a penal colony which houses prisoners he rents out as laborers to replace the emancipated slaves. Against all local law and customs, Willie teaches Flower how to read and write. She receives the help and protection of Abigail Dowling, the Massachusetts abolitionist who has attracted both Willie and Robert Perry's attention. These love affairs are fraught with danger and compromised by the great and grim events of the Civil War and its aftermath. With unforgettable battle scenes at Shiloh and in the Shenandoah Valley, White Doves at Morning is an epic masterpiece of historical fiction. Language: English. Narrator: Will Patton.

What's the Problem with Customers? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 23min
Business strategist and New York Times best-selling author Fred Wiersema presents his latest insights and advice on achieving customer intimacy in a series of new, practical, digital-only guides. This one focuses on the critical importance of identifying your customers' true problem. Chances are, it's not what you - or they - think. But it's vital if you want to keep customers coming back, especially in these tough economic times.It was a rotting old fence around the author's swimming pool that drove home the power of deeply analyzing customer problems. "I thought a traditional white picket fence would be perfect to replace it," he says. "The first two contractors made their measurements, discussed the materials, calculated, and gave me prices. But the third surprised me: 'Why do you want a white fence? Have you ever thought about black?' He explained that a black fence would blend into the background, making the surrounding area more visible, while a white fence would make the pool area more intimate and enclosed. My wife and I had never thought about that. Next, he asked why we were replacing the old fence. I thought it was obvious: It was falling apart and needed to be repainted every few years. 'Have you considered an anodized aluminum fence? It would last pretty much forever,' he said. That clinched the deal: He'd offered a better answer for needs we didn't even realize we had." ungekürzt.

To Save America: Stopping Obama’s Secular-Socialist Machine , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min
In times of adversity, a strong voice to lead the people must emerge. In his new book, Newt Gingrich steps up to offer a bold plan to save America. In his blockbuster new book, To Save America, former Speaker of the House and best-selling author Newt Gingrich issues a dire warning for America. Gingrich argues that the big-spending, big-government programs and bureaucracies of the secular socialist Left are the greatest threat to our nation’s survival since the Civil War. By spending more than we can afford, sacrificing conservative values for the sake of easy answers, and electing the most liberal president ever, America is at risk for its very survival. The Obama administration is conspiring to transform our America of free enterprise, faith, and personal freedom into their America of endless bureaucracy, secularism, and state control—despite overwhelming opposition from the American people. “Our federal government is broken,” Gingrich states, “we must ‘replace, not reform’ our leaders and our policies.” Gingrich offers concrete strategies for dismantling the machine and replacing it with policies and institutions that work. Gingrich shows how Republicans can make a comeback in the 2010 mid-term elections and win the 2012 presidential election, and reveals how listeners can help restore our nation to its fundamental values. But we must act fast, Gingrich warns, or our children will inherit a secular, socialist America transformed beyond recognition. Fresh, inspiring, and resolute, To Save America is Gingrich’s most powerful book yet. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Newt Gingrich.

Alou: My Baseball Journey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 691min
Growing up in a tiny shack in the Dominican Republic, Felipe Alou never dreamed he would be the first man to go from his country to play and manage in Major League Baseball and also the first to play in the World Series. Today, the Dominican Republic produces more Major League players than any country outside the United States.In this extraordinary autobiography, Alou tells of his real dream: to become a doctor. An uncle was funding his university education when an improbable turn of events intervened at the 1955 Pan American Games. There as a track and field athlete, Alou was pressed into service on the baseball field to replace a player sent home for disciplinary reasons. A scout noticed Alou and offered him two hundred pesos to sign a pro contract. Battling racism in the United States and political turmoil in his home country, Alou persevered, paving the way for younger brothers Matty and Jesús and scores of other Dominicans, including his son Moisés. A fourth Alou brother, Juan, might have joined the historic trio if not for the improbable direction his own life took.Alou played 17 years in the Major Leagues, accumulating more than 2,000 hits and 200 home runs, and then managed another 14 - four with the San Francisco Giants and 10 with the Montreal Expos - where he became the winningest manager in franchise history.The book is published by University of Nebraska Press.
