Archaeology: The Secret Wonders of the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 78min
A deeper understanding and insight of life before the modern era. Archaeology is the study of the human past from its material remains and therefore can make use of every conceivable subject in both arts and science. This factor gives it wide appeal and allows everyone to be involved. However, it also inevitably means that nobody can "know it all". Increasingly, archaeology is used to study aspects of life in well-documented periods that were simply not written about directly. For example, the daily life of ordinary people. Many travelers no longer want a simple beach holiday; instead, they want to be inspired, to see some of the wonders of the ancient world, explore a culture's past, and find out a bit more about their ancestors and themselves. ungekürzt.

A Better Game Than War, Hörbuch, Digital, 55min
Formulas for ending war are as old as war itself; yet war continues. What is the missing realization, the breakthrough that will lay to rest, once and for all, humanity's war-mongering impulse? Perhaps it is the awareness of our own fascination with war, and the creation of "a better game" - some exciting endeavor that is decidedly more benign. So says Bob Fuller, co-founder of the Mo Tzu Project, a small band of private citizens who, like their namesake, a fifth-century B.C. Chinese philosopher, travel to sites of political strife (Poland, Northern Ireland, Kenya, Israel/Lebanon) and attempt, as individuals, to mediate disputes. If you have longed for a day when the end of war is conceivable - and who hasn't? - you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Toms.
