    Full House: The Spread of Excellence from Plato to Darwin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 445min
    We have always identified trends as bad (loosening of the moral fiber) or good (better ethnic eating in urban areas). But Stephen Jay Gould argues that this mode of interpretation is a bias that needs correcting. In Full House, Gould presents the truth about progress, evolution, and excellence, as well as a different way to understand trends other than as entities moving in a definite direction. Gould examines how the misinterpretation of data and statistics can result in bad science and social policy, while focusing on the nature of excellence from Plato to Darwin and the misconception that progress is inevitable. ungekürzt.

    Questioning the Millennium: A Rationalist's Guide to a Precisely Arbitrary Countdown , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 205min
    What is our concept of a millennium and how has its meaning shifted? When does the new millennium begin? Why must our calendars be so complex, anyway? Best selling author Stephen Jay Gould applies his wit and erudition to exploring these questions, which cover one of today's most pressing subjects. Gould developed an interest in the approaching millennium at age 8, in 1950, when Life magazine marked the century's midpoint. Now, the evolutionary scientist holds the mirror up to all of our millennial passions in this wide-ranging discussion that reveals our foibles, absurdities, and uniqueness - in other words, our humanity. ungekürzt.

    Leonardo's Mountain of Clams and the Diet of Worm: Essays on Natural History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 763min
    In this essay collection, Stephen Jay Gould examines the puzzles and paradoxes great and small that build nature's and humanity's diversity and order. He formulates a humanistic natural history, one that considers how humans have learned to study and understand nature, rather than a history of nature itself. And through short biographies, Gould depicts how scholars grapple with problems of science and philosophy and illuminates the interaction of the outer world with the unique human ability to struggle to understand the whys and wherefores of existence. This collection is the first of the final 3 essay collections from Gould, who has announced that the series will end with the turn of the millennium. ungekürzt. Language: English.
