Title: The Art of War Author: Sun Tzu Narrator: Phil Chenevert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 16 minutes Release date: May 1, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: The Art of War (Chinese: 孫子兵法; lit. 'Sun Tzu's Military Method') is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the Late Spring and Autumn Period (roughly 5th century BC). The work, which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ('Master Sun'), is composed of 13 chapters. Each one is devoted to a different set of skills (or 'art') related to warfare and how it applies to military strategy and tactics. For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that was formalized as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080. The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has influenced both Far Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy, lifestyles and beyond. The book contains a detailed explanation and analysis of the 5th-century BC Chinese military, from weapons and strategy to rank and discipline. Sun also stressed the importance of intelligence operatives and espionage to the war effort. Considered one of history's finest military tacticians and analysts, his teachings and strategies formed the basis of advanced military training for millennia to come. The book was translated into French and published in 1772 (re-published in 1782) by the French Jesuit Jean Joseph Marie Amiot. A partial translation into English was attempted by British officer Everard Ferguson Calthrop in 1905 under the title The Book of War. The first annotated English translation was completed and published by Lionel Giles in 1910. Military and political leaders such as the Chinese communist revolutionary Mao Zedong, Japanese daimyō Takeda Shingen, Vietnamese general Võ Nguyên Giáp, and American military general Norman Schwarzkopf Jr. are all cited as having drawn inspiration from the book.

Sie erklärt die tieferen Gründe für eine Politik, die im Westen vielfach kaum wahrgenommen, in falsche Vergleiche heruntergebrochen oder einfach verdrängt wird. Die Wahrheit ist: Russland sieht sich im Krieg. Und Russlands Aggression existiert darüber hinaus auch in alten und neuen globalen Medien, im Cyberspace, im Wirtschaftsraum. Eine der besten Kennerinnen Russlands erklärt, warum Russland die globale Ordnung offen herausfordert - in einer Zeit, in der die Fortdauer ebendieser Ordnung ungewiß ist.

Title: Half-Earth Socialism: A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change, and Pandemics Author: Drew Pendergrass, Troy Vettese Narrator: Paul Heitsch Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 1 minute Release date: April 19, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: A plan to save the earth and bring the good life to all In this thrilling and capacious book, Troy Vettese and Drew Pendergrass challenge the inertia of capitalism and the left alike and propose a radical plan to address climate disaster and guarantee the good life for all. Consumption in the global North can’t continue unabated, and we must give up the idea that humans can fully control the Earth through technological “fixes” that only wreak further havoc. Rather than allow the forces of the free market to destroy the planet, we must strive for a post-capitalist society able to guarantee the good life for the entire planet. This plan, which they call Half-Earth Socialism, means we must: - Rewild half the Earth to absorb carbon emissions and restore biodiversity,- Pursue a rapid transition to renewable energy, paired with drastic cuts in consumption by the world’s wealthiest populations,- Enact global veganism to cut down on energy and land use,- Inaugurate worldwide socialist planning to efficiently and equitably manage production, and- Welcome the participation of everyone—even you! Accompanied by a climate-modelling website inviting readers to design their own “half earth,” Vettese and Pendergrass offer us a visionary way forward—and our only hope for a future.

Title: Inflation: What It Is, Why It's Bad, and How to Fix It Author: Nathan Lewis, Elizabeth Ames, Steve Forbes Narrator: Carol Monda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 48 minutes Release date: April 19, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Inflation: What It Is, Why It’s Bad, and How to Fix It explains what’s behind the worst inflationary storm in more than forty years—one that is dominating the headlines and shaking Americans by their pocketbooks. The cost-of-living explosion since the COVID pandemic has raised alarms about a possible return of a 1970’s-style “Great Inflation.” Some observers even fear a descent into the kind of Weimar-style hyperinflation that has torn apart so many nations. Is this true? If so, what should be done? How should we prepare for the future? Inflation answers these and other questions in an engaging discussion that draws on the singular expertise of Steve Forbes, chairman of Forbes Media, acclaimed for his insights on money and the economy; Nathan Lewis, internationally renowned expert on money and taxation; and author and journalist Elizabeth Ames. The authors say that today’s problems can be solved by discarding longstanding beliefs that helped bring on the current crisis. They include the notion that central banks can create prosperity through artificially creating money “out of thin air,” and also that economic “stability” requires “a little inflation.” Such ideas for decades have been Holy Writ in official Washington. Inflation shows why they are misguided. The book also explains why the current rage for heedless money-printing advocated by left-wing advocates of so-called Modern Monetary Theory is likely to lead the nation—and the world—down the road to disaster. Packed with examples from the headlines and from history, Inflation is a unique, real-world exploration of the subject that addresses everyday concerns of Americans under siege by rising prices, including steps you should take to protect your wealth. Inflation is essential listening for everyone seeking to navigate these tumultuous times.

For the first time, al-Qaeda’s closely guarded secrets are laid bare, shattering misconceptions and revealing how and what Bin Laden communicated with his associates, his plans for future attacks, and al-Qaeda’s hostility toward countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Pakistan. Lahoud presents firsthand accounts of al-Qaeda from 9/11 until the elimination of Bin Laden, as told through his own words and those of his family and closest associates.

(Ungekürzte Lesung) Author: Mark Schieritz Narrator: Wolfgang Wagner Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 51 minutes Release date: April 8, 2022 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Deutschland hat einen neuen Bundeskanzler. Aber wer ist dieser Mann eigentlich? Wofür steht Olaf Scholz? Und was haben wir von ihm als Kanzler zu erwarten? Nach 16 Jahren endet die Ära Merkel. Mit dem neuen Kanzler steht nun erstmals wieder ein Sozialdemokrat an der Spitze des Landes. Für viele kam sein Wahlsieg überraschend, ist Olaf Scholz doch der große Unbekannte in der deutschen Politik. Mark Schieritz, wirtschaftspolitischer Korrespondent der ZEIT und intimer Kenner der hiesigen Politlandschaft, erklärt den Menschen, Politiker und Kanzler Scholz, mit dessen Regentschaft auch eine neue Zeit anbricht. Die Pandemie wie die Klimakrise sind Beispiele für die immensen globalen Herausforderungen, vor denen wir aktuell stehen. Wie werden Scholz und seine Ampelkoalition mit ihnen umgehen? Mit analytischem Feingespür und journalistischer Expertise zeigt ZEIT-Journalist Schieritz, wie die Methode Scholz funktioniert, was den Kanzler antreibt und wie Deutschland sich mit dem neuen Mann an der Spitze verändern könnte. Seine These: Scholz hat vor dem Hintergrund eines Paradigmenwechsels in der Ökonomie die sozialdemokratische Programmatik erneuert und das Thema soziale Gerechtigkeit wieder in das Zentrum der Politik gerückt. Er könnte ein Kanzler des Aufbruchs werden - wenn er das Wagnis eingeht.

Erler Narrator: Bob Souer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 59 minutes Release date: March 29, 2022 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Claremont Institute scholar Edward J. Erler argues that, to preserve our dwindling individual freedoms, Americans must mount a defense of the nation state against the encroaching progressive forces of global governance. The United States in Crisis: Citizenship, Immigration, and the Nation State argues that to preserve our freedom Americans must mount a defense of the nation state against the progressive forces who advocate for global government. The Founders of America were convinced that freedom would flourish only in a nation state. A nation state is a collection of citizens who share a commitment to the same principles. Today, the nation state is under attack by the progressive Left, who allege that it is the source of almost every evil in the world.

Title: A New World in Our Hearts: In Conversation with Michael Albert Author: Noam Chomsky Narrator: Donald Corren Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 42 minutes Release date: March 29, 2022 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: An interview with Noam Chomsky is a bit like throwing batting practice to Babe Ruth. What you lob in, he will hammer out. This conversational interview by Michael Albert, who has been close to Chomsky for roughly half a century and talked with him many hundreds of times, spans a wide range of topics including journalism, science, religion, the racist foundations of American society, education as indoctrination, issues of class and resistance, colonialism, imperialism, and much more. The thread through it all is that every topic—and the list above takes us just about halfway through this book—reveals how social systems work, what their impact on humanity is, and how they are treated by the elite, mainstream intellectuals, and leftists. It gets personal, theoretical, and observational. The lessons are relevant to all times, so far, and pretty much all places, and Chomsky’s logical scalpel, with moral guidance, is relentless.
