  Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 705min

  From a pioneer in the field of mental health comes a groundbreaking book on the healing power of "mindsight", the potent skill that allows you to make positive changes in your brain - and in your life.Foreword by Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional IntelligenceIs there a memory that torments you, or an irrational fear you can't shake?Do you sometimes become unreasonably angry or upset and find it hard to calm down?Do you ever wonder why you can't stop behaving the way you do, no matter how hard you try?Are you and your child (or parent, partner, or boss) locked in a seemingly inevitable pattern of conflict?What if you could escape traps like these and live a fuller, richer, happier life? This isn't mere speculation but the result of twenty-five years of careful hands-on clinical work by Daniel J. Siegel, MD. A Harvard-trained physician, Dr. Siegel is one of the revolutionary global innovators in the integration of brain science into the practice of psychotherapy. Using case histories from his practice, he shows how, by following the proper steps, nearly everyone can learn how to focus their attention on the internal world of the mind in a way that will literally change the wiring and architecture of their brain. Through his synthesis of a broad range of scientific research with applications to everyday life, Dr. Siegel has developed novel approaches that have helped hundreds of patients. And now he has written the first book that will help all of us understand the potential we have to create our own lives. Showing us mindsight in action, Dr. Siegel describes:a sixteen-year-old boy with bipolar disorder who uses meditation and other techniques instead of drugs to calm the emotional storms that made him suicidala woman paralyzed by anxiety, who uses mindsight to discover, in an unconscious memory of a childhood accident, the source of her dread ungekürzt.

  Shape: The Hidden Geometry of Information, Biology, Strategy, Democracy, and Everything Else

  An instant New York Times Bestseller! "Unreasonably entertaining….reveals how geometric thinking can allow for everything from fairer American elections to better pandemic planning." - The New York Times From the New York Times-bestselling author of How Not to Be Wrong-himself a world-class geometer-a far-ranging exploration of the power of geometry, which turns out to help us think better about practically everything. How should a democracy choose its representatives? How can you stop a pandemic from sweeping the world? How do computers learn to play Go, and why is learning Go so much easier for them than learning to read a sentence? Can ancient Greek proportions predict the stock market? (Sorry, no.) What should your kids learn in school if they really want to learn to think? All these are questions about geometry. For real. If you're like most people, geometry is a sterile and dimly remembered exercise you gladly left behind in the dust of ninth grade, along with your braces and active romantic interest in pop singers. If you recall any of it, it's plodding through a series of miniscule steps only to prove some fact about triangles that was obvious to you in the first place. That's not geometry. Okay, it is geometry, but only a tiny part, which has as much to do with geometry in all its flush modern richness as conjugating a verb has to do with a great novel. Shape reveals the geometry underneath some of the most important scientific, political, and philosophical problems we face. Geometry asks: Where are things? Which things are near each other? How can you get from one thing to another thing? Those are important questions. The word "geometry"comes from the Greek for "measuring the world." If anything, that's an undersell. Geometry doesn't just measure the world-it explains it. Shape shows us how.

  The Sword of Goliath: The Bloodline Chronicles, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min

  The Sword of Goliath focuses primarily on a man named Jacob Stanton, who is spending his days in San Quentin Penitentiary for a crime he did not commit. Jake was wrongly accused, unfairly tried, and unreasonably sentenced for the murder of his wife, and he’s just lost his final appeal. As Jake begins to mentally prepare for life inside the walls of San Quentin, he’s assigned a new cell-mate, Stephen Stross. Stross befriends Jake and, in earning Jake’s trust, convinces him that he is a member of the Shaddai. The Shaddai, descendants of the Biblical Nephilim through the bloodline of Seth, are on the hunt for twelve artifacts that will help them to win the final battle over the demonic Grigori; they believe the key to finding one of these powerful artifacts, the sword of Goliath, rests inside the mind of Jake Stanton. After engineering a successful escape from San Quentin, Jake and Stephen begin the quest for the legendary lost sword, but it will not be an easy effort. As escaped convicts, they are on the run from the law; as Shaddai, they are the targets of the Grigori and its evil under-lord Zoltar. Jake is going to need every resource imaginable, from skeptical law enforcement agent Sam Jericho, to prophets of the Old Testament, to the hand of God Himself. The final battle has begun not only in this world but in other unseen dimensions, and Jake Stanton may be the catalyst for victory or the harbinger of doom. For those who enjoy stories spun out of Biblical speculation, there is much to love about The Sword of Goliath. Foremost is the fact that the cornerstone of this novel is based around a true mystery of the Bible, the fate of the Nephilim. Whereas Brown’s The Da Vinci Code and Knox’s The Genesis Secret rely on heavily debunked assertions to support fallacious premises, Anthony Jones contrives this tale around a piece of scripture that, across millennia, has yet to be fully explained or understood. ungekürzt.

  The Knowledge Machine: How Irrationality Created Modern Science

  . Why is science so powerful? . Why did it take so long-two thousand years after the invention of philosophy and mathematics-for the human race to start using science to learn the secrets of the universe? In a groundbreaking work that blends science, philosophy, and history, leading philosopher of science Michael Strevens answers these challenging questions, showing how science came about only once thinkers stumbled upon the astonishing idea that scientific breakthroughs could be accomplished by breaking the rules of logical argument. Like such classic works as Karl Popper's The Logic of Scientific Discovery and Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, The Knowledge Machine grapples with the meaning and origins of science, using a plethora of vivid historical examples to demonstrate that scientists willfully ignore religion, theoretical beauty, and even philosophy to embrace a constricted code of argument whose very narrowness channels unprecedented energy into empirical observation and experimentation. Strevens calls this scientific code the iron rule of explanation, and reveals the way in which the rule, precisely because it is unreasonably close-minded, overcomes individual prejudices to lead humanity inexorably toward the secrets of nature. "With a mixture of philosophical and historical argument, and written in an engrossing style" (Alan Ryan), The Knowledge Machine provides captivating portraits of some of the greatest luminaries in science's history, including Isaac Newton, the chief architect of modern science and its foundational theories of motion and gravitation; William Whewell, perhaps the greatest philosopher-scientist of the early nineteenth century; and Murray Gell-Mann, discoverer of the quark. Today, Strevens argues, in the face of threats from a changing climate and global pandemics, the idiosyncratic but highly effective scientific knowledge machine must be protected from politicians, commercial interests, and even scientists themselves who seek to open it up, to make it less narrow and more rational-and thus to undermine its devotedly empirical search for truth. Rich with illuminating and often delightfully quirky illustrations, The Knowledge Machine, written in a winningly accessible style that belies the import of its revisionist and groundbreaking concepts, radically reframes much of what we thought we knew about the origins of the modern world.

  Hot Sex With The Family Dog 3: Caught Mom Banging The Dog (eBook, ePUB)

  I never expected to catch mom in such a compromising position. Cheating on dad - with the family dog? That was sick. But what I made her do next was even sicker… Excerpt: I'll admit it. It was an unannounced visit. But that still didn't excuse mom's behavior. "Oh my God, Billy! What are you doing? You're not supposed to be here!" Mom looked up from the sofa. I swear to God that she had Roy's majestic, German Shepherd cock stuck right in her mouth. Mom looked frantic as she quickly pulled the dog's cock from between her lips. But it was too late. I'd seen everything. I stared, open-mouthed, at my mother for several minutes before advancing on her. Seeing her with a large, throbbing dog cock in her mouth made me unreasonably angry. And horny. "What...what are you doing?" She started to back up, but I grabbed her wrist. "I could ask you the same..." I growled. Mom was completely naked and for the first time I saw her large knockers hanging down lewdly. They were large and hefty and my cock jerked in my pants. "I...I..." She hung her head in shame. "Okay, I'll admit it. I've been having an affair with the dog." The words hung heavily in the air for several minutes before she followed them up. "You're not...gonna tell your father, are you?" Her voice quivered as a tear threatened to spill down her cheeks. I'll tell you what, mom looked so fucking sexy right then that I just wanted to wrap my arms around her and kiss her. My cock grew harder and more impatient in my pants. I had to make my move. "Maybe..." Mom's eyes flew open wide and she gasped. "But maybe not..." I reached out and fondled her hanging breasts. They were so soft and motherly that I couldn't believe they were real. "Oh son, please! Your father can't find out! This would ruin me." She sobbed, not bothering to stop me from molesting her boobies. "Say the words..." I brushed a tear from mom's face. Power coursed through me and I was going to take full advantage of the situation.
