When Adriana, a brilliant young archaeologist, accepts a position at the Museum of Archaeology in her hometown of Santander, Spain, she never imagines that her new boss has lived through the history she can only study.

Iago and his family are longevos - people who never seem to age after reaching adulthood. The ancient family is divided: Iago’s brother and sister seek the source of their longevity in hopes of creating more like themselves, while Iago and his father fear the repercussions of the true Fountain of Youth.

Summary of Breath by James Nestor: The New Science of a Lost Art , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 70min
Note to listeners: This is an unofficial summary of James Nestor's designed to enrich your reading/ listening experience of the original book.Summary of Breath by James Nestor:Breath by James Nestor is first an exploratory guidebook that describes and teaches us the lost art and science of breathing. It is also a history book that educates us on our ancestors' breathing practices and lifestyle that ensured they remained mostly healthy and more resilient than the current generation.The book tells us how our ability to breathe has deteriorated over the ages and why our cavemen ancestors didn't snore. James Nestor wants us to understand that breathing goes beyond the simple act of inhaling and exhaling. This book explores the transformation that occurs inside our bodies when we breathe.For most people, breathing is an automated process required to keep them alive. For James Nestor, breathing, if well understood, is a way to develop the body, build the mind, and grow stronger. Beyond just breathing, how we also breathe matters. Having suffered some respiratory problems, James Nestor admits that joining a breathing class and learning some breathing techniques gave him remarkable relief and, in some cases, cure even over drugs, inhalers, and diets. ungekürzt.

Also, this form of diet does not promote starvation or crash dieting; rather you are taught how to basically improve on your food choices to get the best results.If you are abreast with the history, some thousands of years ago, during the Paleolithic Age, cavemen had very few options for the foods that they could eat. As a result, their food intake was usually just restricted to fish, vegetables, nuts, and the like.At the present time, advocates of this diet would basically have to adhere to the exact same principle.We will find out about Paleo Diet here. ungekürzt.

How to Go PALEO: Natural and Healthy Weight Loss , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 54min
How to Go PALEO: Natural and Healthy Weight Loss is an introductory guide to the world of healthy eating that will change your life. A typical person has more food at their fingertips by picking up the phone or going to the grocery store than our primal ancestors could ever have imagined. We have stoves, ovens, microwaves, deep fryers, grills, rotisseries, and pressure cookers. We've found ways to extract, refine, and process plants, animals, and minerals in ways that cavemen wouldn't even understand. We've found ways to make oil from vegetables, grind grains and legumes into flours or pastes, and refine sugars. This technological and scientific progress has led to a lot of really good discoveries, but as a result of all this progress, those living in Western countries are also some of the most obese. We are poised to overtake our parents - and all previous generations - in terms of lack of fitness and total weight. There's also been a spike in the "diseases of affluence," in Western civilization such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension. The solution to this growing health crisis? It could be just as simple as a return to some of the eating practices of our oldest ancestors! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patrick Conn.

Bullying: How to Overcome Rejection, Harassment, and Hostility Everywhere , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 126min
In this book we will be exploring the world of bullying as it pertains to the views of a child. We will explore the different types of bullying, why it occurs, and what your child - and the parent of a child - can do to prevent it and help their child through this rough patch of growing up. Bullying has always been a way of life, since the early cavemen. It is human nature to find something about someone else for which to pick on them. It can be as simple as a haircut, the way one walks, talks, or dresses. The reason for being picked on or bullied is irrelevant. The true fact of the matter is that the reason people pick on one another is because it either makes them feel better about themselves or it makes them feel socially accepted. In other words, it is a way to make friends. Bullying is a learned behavior that children pick up from their parents, friends, and society as a way to become accepted among their social groups. It is believed that if they make someone else look small, they will look big and powerful in comparison. As a result, a power trip or superiority complex is created, causing a euphoric effect similar to using drugs. Once someone gets the high from bullying it is hard to stop. ungekürzt.

Rationality
Humans today are often portrayed as cavemen out of time, poised to react to a lion in the grass with a suite of biases, blind spots, and illusions. But cognitive scientist and rational optimist Steven Pinker argues that this cannot be the whole picture. A list of the ways in which we are stupid cannot explain how we're so smart: how we discovered the laws of nature, transformed the planet, and lengthened and enriched our lives. Indeed, if humans were fundamentally irrational, how did they discover the benchmarks for rationality against which humans fall short? The topic could not be more timely. In the 21st century, humanity is reaching new heights of scientific understanding - and at the same time appears to be losing its mind. How can a species that sequenced the genome and detected the Big Bang produce so much fake news, conspiracy theories, and 'post-truth' rhetoric? Rationality explains the key tools for rational thinking, guiding the reader through the basics of logic, critical thinking, probability, correlation and causation, and helping us to make rational choices alone and with others. Rationality matters. As the world reels from foolish choices made in the past and dreads a future that may be shaped by senseless choices in the present, rationality may be the most important asset that citizens and influencers command. Steven Pinker, the great defender of human progress, having documented how the world is not falling apart, now shows how we can enhance rationality in our lives and in the public sphere. Rationality is the perfect toolkit to seize our own fates.- Shop: buecher

Rationality
A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2021 'Punchy, funny and invigorating ... Pinker is the high priest of rationalism' Sunday Times 'If you've ever considered taking drugs to make yourself smarter, read Rationality instead. It's cheaper, more entertaining, and more effective' Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous Mind In the twenty-first century, humanity is reaching new heights of scientific understanding - and at the same time appears to be losing its mind. How can a species that discovered vaccines for Covid-19 in less than a year produce so much fake news, quack cures and conspiracy theorizing? In Rationality, Pinker rejects the cynical cliché that humans are simply an irrational species - cavemen out of time fatally cursed with biases, fallacies and illusions. After all, we discovered the laws of nature, lengthened and enriched our lives and set the benchmarks for rationality itself. Instead, he explains, we think in ways that suit the low-tech contexts in which we spend most of our lives, but fail to take advantage of the powerful tools of reasoning we have built up over millennia: logic, critical thinking, probability, causal inference, and decision-making under uncertainty. These tools are not a standard part of our educational curricula, and have never been presented clearly and entertainingly in a single book - until now. Rationality matters. It leads to better choices in our lives and in the public sphere, and is the ultimate driver of social justice and moral progress. Brimming with insight and humour, Rationality will enlighten, inspire and empower. 'A terrific book, much-needed for our time' Peter Singer- Shop: buecher
