Publisher's Summary:

Hormones are chemicals secreted into the blood from glands, such as the pituitary and adrenal glands. They work as part of a complex network, referred to as the endocrine system. The endocrine and nervous systems work together to form the control systems of the body. A balanced hormonal system is able to correctly govern growth, sleep cycle, mood, immune system, metabolism, hunger, sexual arousal, and fertility, among other things. Hormones prepare your body for both immediate and long-term changes. From sending a flight-or-fight signal during an emergency, to initiating the physical changes of puberty or menopause, hormones are the messengers of our chemical communication system. Understanding hormones helps us to identify symptoms of an imbalanced system, and take appropriate actions to address the problem. Grab the book now!

Fast education

I feel like I just took a class on the subject. However, unlike a lecture class I learned only the important, useful information. The end result is similar to what a class would have been, where you only end up recalling the nutshell anyway. The author simply tells you what each hormone system does, and how you can balance them in your life. 5 stars

I learned a lot. Very informative.

Title: The Secret Life of Clams

Subtitle: The Mysteries and Magic of Our Favorite Shellfish

Author: Anthony Fredericks

Narrator: Jason Culp

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-18-14

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Biology

Publisher's Summary:

Get up close and personal with an amazing creature that has invaded our lexicon as well as our restaurants. It breathes with tubes, it has no head or brain, it feeds through a filter, and it is the source of dozens of familiar proverbs ("happy as a clam!"). Clams, it turns out, have been worshipped (by the Moche people of ancient Peru), used as money (by the Algonquin Indians), and consumed by people for thousands of years. Yet The Secret Life of Clams is the first adult trade book to deal exclusively with this gastronomic treat that is more complex than its simple two shells might reveal. The Secret Life of Clams features compelling insights, captivating biology, wry observations, and up-to-the-minute natural history that will keep listeners engaged and enthralled.

Written by award-winning science author Anthony D. Fredericks, The Secret Life of Clams includes a comfortable infusion of humor, up-to-date research, fascinating individuals (scientists and laypeople alike), and the awe of a fellow explorer as he guides listeners on a journey of wonder and adventure. Along with an appreciation for oceanic creatures, this is a guidebook for armchair marine biologists everywhere who seek amazing discoveries in concert with compelling narration.

disappointed. lots of irrelevant passages

What about Jason Culps performance did you like?

performance was fine

Any additional comments?

i normally like books like this, eg The Big Oyster, but this book was disappointing.

I quit halfway thru. Just not that interesting. Plus there are numerous, long

irrelevant passages -- like one on surfing lingo.

Title: Sex on Earth

Subtitle: A Celebration of Animal Reproduction

Author: Jules Howard

Narrator: Jon Caruth

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 28 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-23-14

Publisher: Audible Studios for Bloomsbury

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 8 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Biology

Publisher's Summary:

On thousand million years ago, a sexual revolution occurred on Earth. Sex happened for the first time; from this moment the world became ever more colourful and bizarre, ringing with elaborate songs and dances, epic battles, and rallying cries as the desires of males and females collided, generation after generation. All of your ancestors took part and succeeded - an unbroken chain of sex right back to the dawn of complex life on Earth. Well done you. Well done everything.

The world in which we live rings, bleeds, and howls with sex. It's everywhere. Right now warring hordes are locking horns, preening feathers, rampaging lustfully across the savanna, questioning the fidelity of the ones they love. Birds are singing, flowers bloom. A million females choose; a billion penises ejaculate (or snap off); a trillion sperm battle, block and tackle.

Sex made planet Earth sexy.

Written in a brilliantly engaging style by biologist Jules Howard, this fascinating and highly engaging work covers the how and why of sex on Earth, in all its diversity. From sperm wars to cuckoldry, hermaphrodites and virgin births, spent males, racy harems, clitoral births, hips, breasts and birdsong, penis-percussion, and those riskiest and most elusive of all traits, monogamy and true love, all this and more is discussed in Sex on Earth, as Jules takes us on a voyage of discovery of the ins and outs of animal reproduction.

Critic Reviews:

Sex on Earth is a refreshingly self-aware exploration of the most intimate moments in nature and how the incredible variety of life has led us to frame our own thoughts about this near-ubiquitous biological drive. (Brian Switek, National Geographic)

Members Reviews:

A very interesting and thought provoking listen!

What a fascinating book! It truly was a pleasure listening to it from start to finish.

Gave me a direction for schooling!

it was highly entertaining, fascinating, easy to comprehend! gave me confidence to pursue my passion

Good Stuff

Nice to know we (humans) don't have a market on sex. Insects, birds, amphibians and others seem to have evolved some very peculiar ways of propagating their genes. Very fun and informative read.

Title: Saving Seeds, Preserving Taste

Subtitle: Heirloom Seed Savers in Appalachia

Author: Bill Best

Narrator: Pete Ferrand

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 40 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-08-14

Publisher: University Press Audiobooks

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Biology

Publisher's Summary:

The Brown Goose, the White Case Knife, Ora's Speckled Bean, Radiator Charlie's Mortgage Lifter - these are just a few of the heirloom fruits and vegetables you'll encounter in Bill Best's remarkable history of seed saving and the people who preserve both unique flavors and the Appalachian culture associated with them.

Saving Seeds, Preserving Taste will introduce listeners to the cultural traditions associated with seed saving, as well as the remarkable people who have used grafting practices and hand-by-hand trading to keep alive varieties that would otherwise have been lost. As local efforts to preserve heirloom seeds have become part of a growing national food movement, Appalachian seed savers play a crucial role in providing alternatives to large-scale agriculture and corporate food culture. Part flavor guide, part people's history, Saving Seeds, Preserving Taste will introduce you to a world you've never known - or perhaps remind you of one you remember well from your childhood.

Critic Reviews:

"Perhaps only once in a lifetime, we read a book that is a true treasure of American lore, one that no other person could write. Bill Best should be considered a National Treasure Keeper, for his beans, tomatoes, and corn - as well as his stories - are irreplaceable and therefore of immeasurable value." (Gary Nabhan, author of Coming Home to Eat: The Pleasures and Politics of Local Foods)

"This animated narrative offers a glimpse into American folklore, migration patterns, and the glory of the family farm as it is known through its seeds, which live on season after season, offering distinctive local flavor." (Publishers Weekly)

Members Reviews:

Great book, ZZZZ narrator

This is a great book and you should buy it...in print. The narrator was so monotone and monotonous the words lost all meaning at times.
