Title: Sexuality: A Very Short Introduction

Author: Veronique Mottier

Narrator: Suzanne Toren

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:06:57

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Non-Fiction, Health & Wellness, Intimacy & Sex, Psychology, Social Science

Summary:

Is our sexuality determined primarily by our genes? Or is it shaped by the social norms and expectations we happen to be born into? This Very Short Introduction provides an accessible, thoughtful, and thought-provoking introduction to major debates around sexuality in the modern world, highlighting the social and political aspects of sexuality. It critically explores different ways of defining and thinking about sexuality and shows that many of our assumptions about what is 'natural' in the sexual domain have, in reality, varied greatly in different historical or cultural contexts. The volume also examines ways in which governments have tried to regulate citizens' sexualities in the past-through policies and laws concerning public health, HIV/Aids, prostitution, and sex education-paying special attention to the particular zeal with which women's sexuality has been policed. The volume concludes by discussing political activism around sexuality more widely, focusing on the ways in which feminists, lesbians, and gay men, as well as religious fundamentalists, have transformed our ways of thinking about sexuality in the past few decades.

Harlem Private Detective Walter Morris is hired by the reclusive tycoon, Cuthbert Hayden, to find his maid's missing daughter.

Title: In the Arena: A Memoir of Love, War, and Politics

Author: Chuck Robb

Narrator: Chuck Robb, Jim Seybert

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15:05:32

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Law & Politics, Military

Summary:

In December 1967, Chuck Robb was catapulted onto the national scene when he married Lynda Bird Johnson, the daughter of President Lyndon B. Johnson, in a nationally broadcast White House wedding. Shortly thereafter, Robb, a US Marine, deployed to Vietnam, where he commanded India Company of the 3rd Battalion, 7th Regiment, and was awarded the Bronze Star. These two experiences-seemingly polar opposites-illustrate much about the eventual Virginia governor and US senator, who combined a commitment to family with an ingrained sense of civic duty on the national stage.

In the Arena offers the first political memoir of the noted statesman's extraordinary life, tracing his path from early days as an anonymous Marine to his fairytale wedding, from night movements in Vietnam to engaging in the height of Democratic politics in the Virginia state capitol and US Senate, and from experiencing personal highs and lows to becoming a principled fighter and exemplar of today's moderate Democrat.

Despite representing a conservative state, he stood up for a woman's right to choose, the Equal Rights Amendment, the constitutionality of flag burning, gay rights, and gun control. Looking back from our deeply partisan era, Robb's independent approach now seems remarkable, as well as instructive.

Title: These Liberties We Hold Sacred: Essays on Faith and Citizenship in the 21st Century

Author: Carl Anderson

Narrator: Jim Denison

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:30:31

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Non-Fiction, Politics, Current Affairs, Religious Studies, Law

Summary:

By the time our Founding Fathers were ready to establish an independent nation, the idea of religious tolerance had become deeply ingrained in this brave new country's design. So much so that when the United States Constitution was ratified, it contained a document known as The Bill of Rights-ten amendments detailing the rights of this country's citizens. And the very First Amendment states, Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. . . .

Over the past few decades, however, the power of the state has usurped a growing number of rights clearly ascribed to those who wish to practice their faith. This has certainly not gone unnoticed by many religious organizations. As the supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, Carl Anderson has taken an active role in highlighting-and protecting against-this ever-growing governmental infringement over fundamental religious freedom. New York Times bestselling author Carl Anderson has gathered together many of his most thought-provoking speeches, articles, and essays that lay bare the facts of this unjustified restriction of religious beliefs. The power of his words makes it clear that if nothing is done now, there will continue to be more erosion of these special freedoms set forth by our Founding Fathers.

Title: Witchcraft: A Very Short Introduction

Author: Malcom Gaskill

Narrator: Victor Bevine

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:32:43

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Health & Wellness, World Religions, Naturopathy & New Age

Summary:

Witchcraft is a subject that fascinates us all, and everyone knows what a witch is-or do they? From childhood most of us develop a sense of the mysterious, malign person, usually an old woman. Historically, too, we recognize witch-hunting as a feature of pre-modern societies. But why do witches still feature so heavily in our cultures and consciousness? From Halloween to superstitions, and literary references such as Faust and even Harry Potter, witches still feature heavily in our society. In this Very Short Introduction Malcolm Gaskill challenges all of this, and argues that what we think we know is, in fact, wrong.

Taking a historical perspective from the ancient world to contemporary paganism, Gaskill reveals how witchcraft has meant different things to different people and that in every age it has raised questions about the distinction between fantasy and reality, faith and proof.

Telling stories, delving into court records, and challenging myths, Gaskill examines the witch-hunts of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and explores the reinvention of witchcraft-as history, religion, fiction, and metaphor.

Publisher: Tantor Media

Summary:

A Paranormal Women's Fiction adventure for those who believe that finding your true self late in life is a blessing, not a curse-even if it turns out you may actually be cursed.

After finding my soon-to-be ex-husband together with my soon-to-be ex-assistant, I realize his 'for better or for worse' didn't include my forties.

An extended vacation on a remote Italian island sounds like the perfect antidote to a midlife crisis-until I arrive. I'm expecting Chianti and pasta. What I get is a run-down bed and breakfast with the oldest Nonna in existence.

There's something about this island. Something odd. Like how everyone keeps calling me Mamma or how I'm the first tourist in decades.

And that's before I wake up to a talking chipmunk holding a glass of wine. He says I have something ancient in me, and for once, it's not my creaking joints.

When I finally discover the island's deepest secrets, I know my forties are about to be fabulous, if only I can survive long enough to enjoy them.

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:16:59

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Science & Technology, Animals & Nature, Biology & Chemistry

Summary:

Walter Tschinkel has spent much of his career investigating the hidden subterranean realm of ant nests. This book takes you inside an unseen world where thousands of ants build intricate homes in the soil beneath our feet.

Tschinkel describes the ingenious methods he has devised to study ant nests, showing how he fills a nest with plaster, molten metal, or wax and painstakingly excavates the cast. He guides you through living ant nests chamber by chamber, revealing how nests are created and how colonies function. How does nest architecture vary across species? Do ants have 'architectural plans'? How do nests affect our environment? As he delves into these and other questions, Tschinkel provides a one-of-a-kind natural history of the planet's most successful creatures and a compelling firsthand account of a life of scientific discovery.

Offering a unique look at how simple methods can lead to pioneering science, Ant Architecture addresses the unsolved mysteries of underground ant nests while charting new directions for tomorrow's research, and reflects on the role of beauty in nature and the joys of shoestring science.
