    Tom Baker here reprises the role of the Fourth Doctor, with Susan Jameson as Mrs Wibbsey and Richard Franklin as Mike Yates. Two things arrive on the same night in Central Park, New York, 1976.

As he and Mike are first mixed up with the police and then taken on an aerial ride over the city, Mrs Wibbsey comes face to face with the legendary Talkies film star Mimsy Loyne.

    After Enlightenment: The Post-Secular Vision of J. G. Hamann , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1291min
    After Enlightenment: Hamann as Post-Secular Visionary is a comprehensive introduction to the life and works of 18th-century German philosopher, J. G. Hamann, the founding father of what has come to be known as Radical Orthodoxy. Provides a long-overdue, comprehensive introduction to Haman's fascinating life and controversial works, including his role as a friend and critic of Kant and some of the most renowned German intellectuals of the age. Features substantial new translations of the most important passages from across Hamann's writings, some of which have never been translated into English. Examines Hamann's highly original views on a range of topics, including faith, reason, revelation, Christianity, biblical exegesis, Socrates, theological aesthetics, language, sexuality, religion, politics, and the relationship between Judaism and Christianity. Presents Hamann as the 'founding father' of a distinctly post-modern, post-secular theology and, as such, as an alternative to the 'postmodern triumvirate' of Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Derrida. Considers Hamann's work as a touchtone of modern Jewish-Christian dialogue, in view of debates with his friend Moses Mendelssohn. Explores Hamann's role as the visionary founder of a 'metacritical' movement that radically calls into question the basic principles of modern secular reason, and thus reprises the debate between those defending Hamann's views and those labelling him the bte noir of the Enlightenment. ungekürzt.

    Green Paddler (eBook, ePUB)
    This book on paddlesports details using kayaks and other small boats with an eye to environmental sensibility and affordable recreation. In it, author Paula Johanson reprises her short articles from Kayak Yak website and brings new insights & humour to the time she spends on the water. As a teenager, she learned kayaking and canoeing. After a sudden hearing loss took her sense of balance, she returned to paddling for fitness and vestibular improvement. Finding a calming oasis of nature in cities is a bonus! Whether she's at home on a west coast island or travelling in Canada to promote her writing, her kayaks make it possible for this stocky little woman to haul her own gear so she can paddle in harbours, lakes, and rivers. Though she doesn't own a car or a couch, her "Affordable Fleet" of kayaks includes three AdvancedElements folding inflatables, as well as wheels for a Necky Eliza sea kayak and an old Pamlico to loan to beginners. "With the finely-honed body of a freelance writer, I turn heads as I bring my inflatable kayaks on buses, trains, and airplanes, or wheel my sea kayak along a road," she says. "…but it's the kayaks that get all the attention." Doublejoy Books is thrilled to release this practical discussion of using small boats. The enjoyment of kayaking shows on every page as paddler Paula Johanson presents ways to get out on the water, even when one doesn't own a motor vehicle. This is the author's forty-fourth nonfiction book, and her confidence is clear whether she welcomes the reader to paddlesports or environmental concerns.

    Français et Britanniques à l'heure du brexit (eBook, ePUB)
    À l'heure où le Royaume-Uni peine à se séparer de l'Union européenne qu'il a intégrée il y a presque un demi-siècle, on peut s'interroger sur ses rapports plus précis avec la France. Bien entendu, il paraît légitime de se demander d'abord pourquoi le général de Gaulle s'était, à deux reprises, opposé à son entrée dans le Marché commun, mais aussi pourquoi, juste après lui, Georges Pompidou lui en avait ouvert les portes. Mais il faut remonter plus loin. Les deux pays sont en effet les seuls en Europe à avoir eu une histoire aussi parallèle, avec d'importants points communs mais aussi de fortes oppositions. À partir d'un substrat celtique romanisé plus ou moins semblable et des apports germaniques, des moments originaux ont marqué leurs relations : conquête de l'île par les Normands en 1066, présence anglaise en France jusqu'à la guerre de Cent Ans, période napoléonienne symbolisée par Trafalgar et Waterloo, Entente cordiale officialisée en 1904 et soutien, aussi réel que difficile, de Churchill à la France libre. Quant à l'évolution politique interne, elle s'est vite différenciée, avec, en Grande-Bretagne, une représentation nationale et locale associant au pouvoir un nombre de plus en plus important de personnes. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Docteur en Histoire et diplômé de l'Institut d'Études politiques de Lyon, Jean Étèvenaux a écrit une trentaine de livres d'Histoire et participé à de nombreux ouvrages collectifs. Ses derniers titres lui ont permis d'aborder aussi bien les Migrations anciennes et nouvelles en Europe (Saint-Léger, 2017) que Les femmes dans la Grande Guerre (Le Poutan, 2018), Les grandes heures de Lyon (Perrin, 2019) que Berthier, Bertrand et Caulaincourt. De l'Ancien Régime à Napoléon (Cabédita, 2019).

    The Complete Little Women Series: Little Women, Good Wives, Little Men, Jo's Boys (4 books in one) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 2243min
    Little Women is a novel by American author Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888). The book was written and set in the Alcott family home, Orchard House, in Concord, Massachusetts. It was published in two volumes in 1868 and 1869. The novel follows the lives of four sisters – Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March – and is loosely based on the author's childhood experiences with her three sisters. The first volume, Little Women, was an immediate commercial and critical success, prompting the composition of the book's second volume, entitled Good Wives, which was also successful. Both books were first published as a single volume entitled Little Women in 1880. Alcott followed Little Women with two sequels, also featuring the March sisters: Little Men (1871) and Jo's Boys (1886). Little Women was a fiction novel for girls that veered from the normal writings for children, especially girls, at the time. Little Women has three major themes:” domesticity, work, and true love. All of them are interdependent and each is necessary to the achievement of a heroine's individual identity. Little Women itself “has been read as a romance or as a quest, or both. It has been read as a family drama that validates virtue over wealth.” Little Women has been read “as a means of escaping that life by women who knew its gender constraints only too well.” Alcott “combines many conventions of the sentimental novel with crucial ingredients of Romantic children's fiction, creating a new form of which Little Women is a unique model.” Elbert argued that within Little Women can be found the first vision of the “American Girl” and that her multiple aspects are embodied in the differing March sisters. Little Men, or Life at Plumfield with Jo's Boys is a novel by American author Louisa May Alcott, first published in 1871. The novel reprises characters from Little Women and ungekürzt.

    And Eve Said Yes: Seven Stories and a Novella , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 411min
    And Eve Said Yes: Seven Stories and a Novella presents the listener with a compelling assortment of characters wrestling with life challenges against the backdrop of various world religions. A Jewish stockbroker on Long Island must decide the moral course of action regarding his traumatized daughter and an innocent client about to incur a steep loss. A contemporary Catholic foursome of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John encounters brutal exploitation, murder, and a shocking apparition on the mean streets of LA. A Vietnam veteran fights nature in a crushing ice storm only to re-experience his agnostic nemesis. One man (whose daughter is marrying a Buddhist) offers a humorous take on Buddhism to his buddy in a sports bar. A woman struggles to overcome the bitterness of a failed marriage while attending a breakfast at an Islamic cultural center. A Hindu woman doctor, studying in the US on a medical fellowship, is assisted, when tragedy strikes, by a disabled loner with a compassionate heart. Finally, the novella And Eve Said Yes reprises some elements of the different faiths introduced in the preceding short stores as the listener follows the quest of one Jason Hunter for a renewed spiritual connection, absolution of guilt for the accidental death of a coworker, and the discovery of a true soul mate. Jason, a Navy veteran and now a stockroom supervisor, is without family or a clear sense of direction. Following a severe storm, Jason and a young woman stranger save the life of an elderly woman in a dark, flooded street. Jason feels a profound attraction to the young woman but has no idea how to locate her once more. He entertains counsel from those closest to him his Jewish landlady, an earthy night-watchman friend, an old college buddy involved with the SRF church in LA, and a Jewish coworker who teaches Hebrew. At last, a chance encounter with a former college professor who taught comparative religion in a class Jason had taken years before p ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ellery Truesdell.

    The Code Breaker
    'The Code Breaker's confident, cinematic style makes Crispr accessible like never before, taking readers on a journey that is exciting, as well as ethically treacherous.' - The Financial Times'A page-turner. It weaves history and contemporary events into a narrative propelled by the career of its protagonist, Jennifer Doudna.' - The Economist'Nobody knows this stuff and these people, and explains them, quite like Isaacson. If you need to know about CRISPR - and you do - this is the place to start.' - The Sunday TimesThe best-selling author of Leonardo da Vinci and Steve Jobs returns.In 2012, Nobel Prize winning scientist Jennifer Doudna hit upon an invention that will transform the future of the human race: an easy-to-use tool that can edit DNA.Known as CRISPR, it opened a brave new world of medical miracles and moral questions. It has already been deployed to cure deadly diseases, fight the coronavirus pandemic of 2020, and make inheritable changes in the genes of babies. But what does that mean for humanity? Should we be hacking our own DNA to make us less susceptible to disease? Should we democratise the technology that would allow parents to enhance their kids?After discovering this CRISPR, Doudna is now wrestling these even bigger issues.The Code Breaker is an examination of how life as we know it is about to change - and a brilliant portrayal of the woman leading the way.'The Code Breaker's confident, cinematic style makes Crispr accessible like never before, taking readers on a journey that is exciting, as well as ethically treacherous.' The Financial Times'The CRISPR history holds obvious appeal for Walter Isaacson, a biographer of Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Steve Jobs and Leonardo da Vinci. In "The Code Breaker" he reprises several of his previous themes - science, genius, experiment, code, thinking different - and devotes a full length book to a female subject for the first time. Jennifer Doudna, a genuine heroine for our time, may be the code breaker of the book's title, but she is only part of Isaacson's story...
