Interference , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 651min
Something wants in. To your head. Through this book. Ethan, a digital sound engineer in Los Angeles, becomes aware that his life is unraveling when an audiobook reveals his deepest, darkest secrets, escalating until the narrator addresses him directly, threatening to destroy him from within. Vivian, a single mother running an antique store in San Francisco, listens to her audiobook to distract herself from missing her young daughter but is shaken when the narrative is interrupted by her daughter's voice, faintly calling for help. Ethan and Vivian are drawn together as they fight to solve a generation-spanning conspiracy that begins with a boy listening to the Orson Welles broadcast of War of the Worlds in 1938 and evolves through the latest innovations in digital technology, unearthing the mind-bending concept of a possibility parasite bent on unleashing an explosion of apocalyptic meta horror. Conceptually striking and intimately disturbing, Interference is a cutting-edge science fiction/horror thriller that will resonate with an audience acquainted with the paranoia inherent in the latest technology that pervades our lives. ungekürzt.

Coming Closer to Ourselves: Making Everything the Path of Awakening, Hörbuch, Digital, 314min
How to Befriend Your Most Challenging Emotions and Experiences In challenging times, why do so many of us turn to Pema Chödrön for guidance? Many say that it’s her honest and caring way of communicating the core teachings of Buddhism - not just conceptually, but directly from her heart to ours. In these inspiring sessions, she teaches us how to give that compassion to the person we neglect most often - ourselves. With her, you will explore: What to do when it feels impossible to be kind to ourselves. In challenging relationships and situations, how to let go of our story and see what’s really happening. Cultivating inner comfort and greater kindness toward our bodies. Leaning into frustration, sadness, and fear with a spirit of trust and intimacy. Many other insights and recommendations to befriend the difficult places within us. Through gentle and clear guidance, Coming Closer to Ourselves shows us how, even in the tumult of life’s uncertainties, we can begin with a glimmer of curiosity, move closer into our experiences, and discover a place of welcome and refuge within.

Language, Names and Information , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 404min
Many take the description theory of reference for proper names to be dead in the water. Contrary to this view, Language, Names, and Information defends a version of the description theory from a perspective on language that sees words as a wonderful source of information about the nature of the world we live in. Indeed, the book is as much about the implications of this perspective for discussions of meaning and reference in general as it is for the particular topic of names. Representation and information, two–dimensionalism about content, the role of possible worlds and centered worlds, the distinction between what is metaphysically possible and what is conceptually possible, and rigidity – all make their appearances as required by the informational perspective on language.

Jackson is a corresponding fellow of the British Academy and the author of several books and papers on a wide range of topics in analytical philosophy. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Giving Up Giving Up , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 219min
Giving Up Giving Up is a self-help audiobook in the form of a memoir by Abigail Gazda. The uniqueness of this audiobook is in its ontological foundation. Gazda is an ontological life coach. The work she does with clients and groups is to have them take a much closer look at who they are being, rather than what they are doing, in life. In Giving Up Giving Up, Gazda takes listeners through her transformation, through never being allowed to quit, to quitting everything, to quitting conceptually, to acceptance. There are four quadrants in this audiobook: Toughing stuff out in childhood. Early 20s being a big "screw off" to authority. Ontological transformation: quitting people pleasing, quitting others expectations. Accepting humanity, greatness, purpose, and creating a full life. In this audiobook, Gazda gives the listener an opportunity to "look in the mirror", evaluate who they are, what they are, and what they hope to accomplish in life. This gives listeners the awareness and guidance to break through personal barriers in order to achieve ultimate life goals. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Abigail Gazda.

Games And Dynamic Games
Dynamic games arise between players (individuals, firms, countries, animals, etc.) when the strategic interactions among them recur over time and decisions made during one period affect both current and future payoffs. Dynamic games provide conceptually rich paradigms and tools to deal with these situations.This volume provides a uniform approach to game theory and illustrates it with present-day applications to economics and management, including environmental, with the emphasis on dynamic games.At the end of each chapter a case study called game engineering (GE) is provided, to help readers understand how problems of high social priority, such as environmental negotiations, exploitation of common resources, can be modeled as games and how solutions can be engineered.- Shop: buecher

The City as Action (eBook, ePUB)
In constructing the urban as a set of interconnected actions, this book presents a less travelled route to understanding the city. It leads to a fresh perspective on several issues central to urban theory, including the uniqueness of a city alongside practices it shares with other urban places. This book presents an innovative theoretical contribution to the field of urban studies, bridging the gap between western centric scholarship and perspectives from the global South. It offers conceptually rich insights, combining notions of cities as organisms, and references to postcolonial urban studies, with insights around aspirations, capabilities, agency, and social identity. It develops concepts, like the Proximity Principle, that help explain the experience of a city. This conceptualization of the city as a process should interest all who are sensitive to cities, whether they study them in academia or simply develop close associations with specific urban places.- Shop: buecher
