Title: Art of Seeing

Author: Aldous Huxley

Narrator: David Pickering

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:07:05

Language: English

Release date: 06-24-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Health & Wellness, Disorders & Diseases, Science & Technology, Medicine, Naturopathy & New Age

Summary:

A Natural Path to Better Vision

Unlike the dystopian vision described in Brave New World, or the psychedelic vision described in his The Doors of Perception, in The Art of Seeing, Aldous Huxley focuses on the actual vision of the human eye. Documenting his own profound near-blindness and subsequent attempts to improve his own sight, Huxley offers a thorough instruction manual on the controversial alternative vision therapy exercises developed by W. H. Bates.

Although Huxley remained visually challenged throughout his life, he explains how and why he was able to get significant benefits from the Bates Method and was determined to share his discovery with the world. Since optical glass was no longer doing me any good, I decided to take the plunge. Within a couple of months, I was reading without glasses...without strain and fatigue, he wrote of the beginning of his process.

Huxley discusses the physiology of the eye and how it can heal; the effects of disease and emotion; eye movement exercises; blinking and breathing; relaxation and many more approaches to improved optical and mental function. He describes the process of improving your vision as an art rather than a science. Those familiar with Huxley's work won't be surprised to learn that The Art of Seeing is more than just a dry manualit is a thorough discussion of the physiology and psychology of human sight. Huxley fans and those interested in the art of seeing will find this a must-listen.

Title: Competitive Strategy: Techniques for Analyzing Industries and Competitors

Author: Michael E. Porter

Narrator: Scott R. Pollak

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15:31:48

Language: English

Release date: 06-24-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Business & Economics, Accounting & Finance

Summary:

Now nearing its 60th printing in English and translated into 19 languages, Michael E. Porter's Competitive Strategy has transformed the theory, practice, and teaching of business strategy throughout the world.

Electrifying in its simplicity - like all great breakthroughs - Porters analysis of industries captures the complexity of industry competition in five underlying forces. Porter introduces one of the most powerful competitive tools yet developed: his three generic strategies - lowest cost, differentiation, and focus - which bring structure to the task of strategic positioning. He reveals how competitive advantage can be defined in terms of relative cost and relative prices, thus linking it directly to profitability and presents a whole new perspective on how profit is created and divided. In the almost two decades since publication, Porter's framework for predicting competitor behavior has transformed the way in which companies look at their rivals and has given rise to the new discipline of competitor assessment.

More than a million managers in both large and small companies, investment analysts, consultants, students, and scholars throughout the world have internalized Porter's ideas and applied them to assess industries, understand competitors, and choose competitive positions. The ideas in the audiobook address the underlying fundamentals of competition in a way that is independent of the specifics of the ways companies go about competing.

Competitive Strategy has filled a void in management thinking. It provides an enduring foundation and grounding point on which all subsequent work can be built. By bringing a disciplined structure to the question of how firms achieve superior profitability, Porters rich frameworks and deep insights comprise a sophisticated view of competition unsurpassed in the last quarter-century. Competitive Strategy is skillfully narrated by Scott R. Pollak.

Title: Handbook of Yoruba Religious Concepts

Author: Baba Ifa Karade

Narrator: Camille Mazant

Format: Unabridged

Length: 03:47:53

Language: English

Release date: 06-24-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Health & Wellness, Naturopathy & New Age

Summary:

An introduction to the spiritual source of the beliefs and practices that have so profoundly shaped African American religious traditions.

Most of the Africans who were enslaved and brought to the Americas were from the Yoruba nation of West Africa, an ancient and vast civilization. In the diaspora caused by the slave trade, the guiding concepts of the Yoruba spiritual tradition took root in Haiti, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Brazil, and the United States.

In this accessible audio introduction, Baba Ifa Karade provides an overview of the Yoruba tradition and its influence in the West. He describes the 16 Orisha, or spirit gods, and shows us how to work with divination, use the energy centers of the body to internalize the teachings of Yoruba, and create a sacred place of worship. The audiobook also includes prayers, dances, songs, offerings, and sacrifices to honor the Orisha

The Handbook of Yoruba Religious Concepts is skillfully narrated by Camille Mazant, with guidance from the author.

Title: Christianity Before Christ

Author: John G. Jackson

Narrator: Richard Webb

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:16:28

Language: English

Release date: 06-24-24

Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity, Atheism

Summary:

Nothing is new or original in Christianity. That is the important thesis demonstrated in Christianity Before Christ. The least important features, as well as the most important components, were all well developed in cultures that flourished before the time that Christ is alleged to have walked the parched paths of Roman Palestine. The information presented in this audiobook is absolutely crucial if atheists and other free thinkers are to understand the nature of the beast that threatens not only their liberties and rights as citizens in a secular republic, but also threatens to return world civilization itself back to the prescientific levels of the ancient cultures from which Christianity derived all its odd details. Every atheist needs to know what is in this audiobook!
