    Arsenals of Folly: The Making of the Nuclear Arms Race , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 852min
    From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Making of the Atomic Bomb: the story of the entire postwar superpower arms race, climaxing during the Reagan-Gorbachev decade when the United States and the Soviet Union came within scant hours of nuclear war - and then nearly agreed to abolish nuclear weapons. In a narrative that moves like a thriller, Rhodes sheds light on the Reagan administration’s unprecedented arms buildup in the early 1980s, as well as the arms-reduction campaign that followed, and Reagan’s famous 1986 summit meeting with Gorbachev. Rhodes’s detailed exploration of events of this time constitutes a prehistory of the neoconservatives, demonstrating that the manipulation of government and public opinion with fake intelligence and threat inflation that the administration of George W. Bush has used to justify the current “war on terror” and the disastrous invasion of Iraq were developed and applied in the Reagan era and even before. Drawing on personal interviews with both Soviet and U.S. participants, and on a wealth of new documentation, memoir literature, and oral history that has become available only in the past 10 years, Rhodes recounts what actually happened in the final years of the Cold War that led to its dramatic end. The story is new, compelling, and continually surprising - a revelatory re-creation of a hugely important era of our recent history.  ungekürzt.

    Gunpowder Girls: The True Stories of Three Civil War Tragedies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 123min
    With thousands of men off fighting in the Civil War, the government hired women and girls - some as young as 10 - to make millions of rounds of ammunition. Poor immigrant girls and widows paid the price for carelessness at three major arsenals. Many of these workers were killed, blown up and burned beyond recognition. As Steve Sheinkin did with The Port Chicago 50, Tanya Anderson in Gunpowder Girls tells an amazing war story that finally gives its subjects their due. Hidden history comes alive through primary-source research and engaging narrative. Gunpowder Girls is a story of child labor and immigrant hopes and the cruel, endless demands of an all-consuming war. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carrie Olsen.

    Colonial Williamsburg, Part II - Bruton Church to the Capitol, Hörbuch, Digital, 102min
    In part two of our tour of Colonial Williamsburg, we step back in time once again to get a closer look at the picturesque town and the fascinating residents who lived and worked here. On this tour we leave the elegant mansions behind and visit with the merchants, the tradesmen, and the artisans who created the everyday fabric of this historic community. We're starting at one of the earliest churches in Virginia, Bruton Parish Church. Along the way we'll see the first public mental institution established in the country, we'll stop by one of Virginia's early arsenals, and we'll pass properties once owned by Martha Washington's relatives. Fittingly, we finish at the first building in America to be called the Capitol - the place that saw the beginnings of American independence. Language: English. Narrator: Maureen Reigh Quinn.

    Tod einer Superintelligenz: Perry Rhodan 2598, Hörbuch, Digital, 208min
    In der Milchstraße schreibt man das Jahr 1463 Neuer Galaktischer Zeitrechnung - das entspricht dem Jahr 5050 christlicher Zeitrechnung. Seit einiger Zeit tobt der Kampf um die Polyport-Höfe, der mehrere Galaxien umspannt. Die sogenannten Polyport-Höfe sind Zeugnisse einer längst vergangenen Zeit, mit denen sich gigantische Entfernungen überbrücken lassen. Als die Frequenz-Monarchie aus einem jahrtausendelangen Ruheschlaf erwacht, beanspruchen ihre Herren, die Vatrox, sofort die Herrschaft über das Transportsystem und mehrere Galaxien. Die Terraner und ihre Verbündeten wehren sich erbittert - und schlagen die Frequenz-Monarchie zuerst in Andromeda und später auch in der fernen Galaxis Anthuresta: Die Machtzentren der Vatrox werden ausgeschaltet. Doch den eigentlichen Sieg trägt eine Geistesmacht davon, die von den Vatrox abstammt und diese nun erbittert bekämpft: VATROX-VAMU. Letztlich dreht sich aber alles um ES, die Superintelligenz von Wanderer und Mentor der Menschheit. ES braucht die Psi-Energie des PARALOX-ARSENALS, sonst droht der TOD EINER SUPERINTELLIGENZ...

    The American Heritage History of World War I , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1141min
    Drawing on a lifetime of military experience, Brigadier General S. L. A. Marshall, “one of our most distinguished military writers” (New York Times), delivers this unflinching history of the war that was supposed to end all wars. From the perspective of more than half a century, Marshall examines the blunders and complacency that turned what everyone thought would be a brief campaign and an easy victory into a relentless four-year slaughter that left ten million dead and twenty million wounded. As the war raged on, more efficient methods of war-making were devised: the flamethrower and poison gas were added to the world’s arsenals, tanks replaced cavalry, air combat and submarine warfare came into their own. And at the end, the exhausted combatants signed the Treaty of Versailles, which laid the groundwork for the dictatorships that would plunge the next generation into another world war. S. L. A. Marshall (1900–1977) was an accomplished journalist, a war correspondent, and a historian. One of the preeminent American military writers of our time, he wrote more than thirty books. ungekürzt.

    Cybersecurity Hygiene for the Healthcare Industry: The Basics in Healthcare IT, Health Informatics, and Cybersecurity for the Health Sector , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 59min
    With the hospital and health sectors' attack surfaces wide open, it's surprising that more isn't being done to educate staff on proper cybersecurity hygiene. The attack surface is compounded by the exponential expansion of the IoT and lack of up-to-date BYOD protocols. HIPAA and patient record privacy are a moot point when unpatched vulnerabilities in applications are exploited by bad actors. The health-care industry as a whole needs to move toward a more cybersecurity-centric culture as the physical and cyber environments continue to merge. The point of this easy to intellectually digest book series is to introduce basic cybersecurity with nursing informatics, hospital information technology, HIPAA compliance, and health IT. When health sector staff can more easily identify spear phishing, spoofed browsers, and other malicious enticements by hackers, each organization will be less prone to breaches. Bad actors are becoming more targeted, stealthy, and creative with their exploit kits and zero days. Ransomware, RATs, Droppers, and drive-by downloads are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the adversaries' attack arsenals for invading the health-care division of our nation's critical infrastructure. ungekürzt.
