Breakout: Pioneers of the Future, Prison Guards of the Past, and the Epic Battle That Will Decide America's Fate , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 466min
Best-selling author Newt Gingrich proposes a bold vision ofthe future: America is on the cusp of a renaissance, a new birth of technological and scientific innovation that will dramatically transform the prosperity and quality of life of every American. Our biggest enemy? Special interest groups, powerful lobbyists, and government bureaucrats who aredetermined to squash, control, or prevent these innovations - and permanently change the future of America. These are the enemies of the future - powerful forces determined to prevent the enormous benefits that American ingenuity will bring. In his groundbreaking new book, Breakout, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich sketches America's future, brimming withpossibilities and prosperity. Despite big government regulation and taxation, despite special interest groups and lobbyists, American entrepreneurs, innovators, engineers, and scientists are still abundantly creative and productive. Gingrich describes the top technologies that promise to change theway we live and prosper, including 3D printing, driverless cars, breakthroughs in genetics and medicine, unprecedented and ever-growing Internet connectivity,and the new "app store" model of business development. Will big government, whacky extremists, and powerful lobbyists stop these innovations? They will try - with punitive taxes, stiflingregulation, and hopelessly outdated policies. Will Americans allow it? Newt Gingrich sounds the rallying cry to make sure we defeat the enemies of the future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Cochran Heath.

Give Me Liberty: Speakers and SpeechesThat Have Shaped America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1245min
Give me liberty, demanded Patrick Henry, "or give me death!" Henry's words continue to echo in American history, and that quote, and the speech it comes from, remains one of the two or three known to almost every American. The other speeches that have become part of our American collective consciousness all have one theme in common: liberty. These feats of oration seem to trace the evolution of America's definition of liberty and whom it applies to.But what exactly is liberty? It is a term open to a broad range of opinion, and questions about freedom arise daily in the news and in everyday life. Perhaps uniquely among the nations of the world, the United States traces its origins to groups and individuals who specifically wanted to create something new. Webber's insightful Give Me Liberty looks at these great speeches and provides the historical context, focusing attention on particular individuals who summed up the issues of their own day in words that have never been forgotten. Webber gleans lessons from the past centuries that will allow us to continue to strive for the ideals of liberty in the 21st century.Sure to become a classic of American oratorical history, Give Me Liberty reveals the enduring power of America's quest for a freer and more just society and the context ofthe speeches and speakers - from Daniel Webster and Patrick Henry to Martin Luther King Jr. and Ronald Reagan - that gave voice to the struggle. ungekürzt.

It focuses on the feud between Macheaf - an amoral criminal - and his father in law, a racketeer who controls and exploits London's beggars and is intent on having Macheaf hanged. Despite the resistance by Macheaf's friend the Chief of Police, Macheaf is eventually condemned to hang, until in a comic reversal the queen pardons him and grants him a title and land.

Classic Chinese Short Stories, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 266min
China has been a wellspring of storytelling for over 2,000 years. Sadly, this fantastic literature is little known in the west outside the halls of academia, though a handful of recent 20th century authors have attained a respectable following. The stories in this volume date from the sixth century A.D. to the early part of the 20th century, and will give the listener a good feel for the subject. Astonishingly, the Chinese enjoyed from the earliest times many of the genres we take for granted today, from romance and love to adventure and satire. There are seven stories in Volume 1. In "The White Monkey," by Anonymous, a general's honor and self respect are on the line when his wife is kidnapped."The Jade Goddess," retold by Lin Yu Tang, is like a fine piece of exquisite porcelain. This wonderful story from the 6th century is a thing of delicate beauty. Will an artist put aside his creative gifts for the sake of love?"The Canary Murders," by Feng Meng-lung, is a twelfth century forerunner ofthe detective story which attempts to sort out a string of mysterious deaths."The Book Worm," by P'u Sung-ling is a humorous satire about a bibliophile who suddenly finds love.In "K'ung I-Chi," by Lu Hsun, an old-fashioned scholar loses his way in life.In "Mr. Pan In Distress," by Yeh Shao-Chun, war threatens the settled life of a provincial educator."Intoxicating Spring Nights," by Yu Ta-fu, is a look at the effects of a newly industrialized society. ungekürzt.
