Elders of Zion: Mystery & Conspiracy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 8min
Learn the story of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion with iMinds insightful audio knowledge series. The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is the one of the world's most famous conspiracy theories. It is a statement of prejudice and paranoia, a fake historical record and a grand hoax all rolled into one. The Protocols claim to prove that there is a Jewish plot to take over the world and purport to show that Socialism, Liberalism, and every other reformist idea or activity are just tools of a Jewish secret cabal. The Protocols have been discredited many times over their 110-year-old history and would be laughable, except for the tragic role they played in the Twentieth Century. The actual Protocols text is written as if it is a secret document from a shadowy Jewish organization and details a conspiratorial plot to undermine the existing World Order. Each of the 24 sections read as a strategic instruction on how to undermine elements of the existing order.

Heroes, Legends, Champions: Why Heroism Matters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 327min
This is not a self-help book. Its purpose is not to tell us how to apply the lessons of a hero's life in our own. Rather, it is a theoretical book, explaining what heroes are and why mankind needs them. Before we can emulate heroes, we must properly identify them. We must understand who and what they are...and what they are not. This is a matter of life and death. Some persons, for example, at various times have considered Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin, and Osama bin Laden as heroes. If we are to promote human life, it is necessary for us to clearly understand that and why mass murderers are definitively excluded from the echelon of heroes. Chapters one, two, and three focus on the nature and definition of a hero, and provide a method for distinguishing a hero from non-heroes. Chapter four raises the question of whether, under appropriate circumstances, everyman and everywoman can rise to heroic heights - and answers in the affirmative. Chapters five, six, and seven dispute the time-honored notion that heroism involves self-sacrifice and demonstrate, rather, that heroism, properly understood, involves actions self-fulfilling; heroism and self-sacrifice are, in fact, moral antipodes. Chapter eight discusses an appropriate response to morally flawed heroes - and chapter nine explains the errors of the modern antihero mentality. Finally, chapter ten tells us about the life-giving importance of hero worship. The two appendices validate philosophic principles that underlie the theory of heroes elucidated here: Human life is the standard of moral value and human beings possess free will. This book does not purport to be an exhaustive analysis of a hero's nature. Presumably, there is more to be said. But it is a provocative first step toward understanding the nature of heroes, one that will hopefully spark a lively 21st-century debate of this important subject. ungekürzt. Language: English.

World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 481min
A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2017Franklin Foer reveals the existential threat posed by big tech, and in his brilliant polemic gives us the toolkit to fight their pervasive influence.Over the past few decades, there has been a revolution in terms of who controls knowledge and information. This rapid change has imperiled the way we think. Without pausing to consider the cost, the world has rushed to embrace the products and services of four titanic corporations. We shop with Amazon; socialize on Facebook; turn to Apple for entertainment; and rely on Google for information. These firms sell their efficiency and purport to make the world a better place, but what they have done instead is to enable an intoxicating level of daily convenience. As these companies have expanded, marketing themselves as champions of individuality and pluralism, their algorithms have pressed us into conformity and laid waste to privacy. They have produced an unstable and narrow culture of misinformation, and put us on a path to a world without private contemplation, autonomous thought, or solitary introspection - a world without mind. In order to restore our inner lives, we must avoid being coopted by these gigantic companies, and understand the ideas that underpin their success.Elegantly tracing the intellectual history of computer science - from Descartes and the enlightenment to Alan Turing to Stewart Brand and the hippie origins of today's Silicon Valley - Foer exposes the dark underpinnings of our most idealistic dreams for technology. The corporate ambitions of Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon, he argues, are trampling longstanding liberal values, especially intellectual property and privacy. This is a nascent stage in the total automation and homogenization of social, political, and intellectual life. By reclaiming our private authority over how we intellectually engage with the world, we have the power to ste ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Marc Cashman.

Manipulation and Dark Psychology: Understand Dark Psychology Secrets and Read Body Language to Identify a Narcissist. Learn Body Language, How to Read People and Analyze Others , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 210min
If you want influence others or if you want understand body language, then keep reading....Dark psychology is all around you; learn to defend yourself and take advantage of its principles.Mark walks into a car dealership. He knows exactly which car he would like to buy, and he knows exactly how much it should cost. He has already researched what the reasonable prices are for this package. He has also researched these dealerships’ inventory and knows what is available. Mark is prepared to dominate his experience in this regard. When he encounters the first salesman, the salesman says, "Hello! Is there something you’d like to take a look at?" Mark replies, "Yes, I’d like that one over there; it appears that you have the options I’m looking for. Draw up the papers and I’ll take a look." The salesman fumbles for a moment, and says, "Wouldn’t you like to see some financing options?" Mark shakes his head no. "Wouldn’t you like to discuss what is available in your budget range?" Mark shakes his head no again. "Just prepare the papers." The salesman replies, "I can’t do that until we’ve discussed some factors." Mark realizes that this salesman does not want to sell him the car straight up. He leaves.At the next dealership, Mark walks in, identifies the car he wants, and a salesman asks him if he’s interested. "Yes," Mark replies. "I want it at the listed price; go ahead and prepare the deal." The salesman flounders for just a moment, but then realizes who he is dealing with, and goes and prepares the papers. Mark is used to tactics of persuasion and manipulation, and he was able to defend himself from being used.Some may object to this type of subject matter being discussed. They might purport that this is not a well-researched area of psychological study. You might also have preconceived notions about dark psychology and how these elements are addressed in everyday life. However, you must not worry. This audiobo ungekürzt. Language: English.

Buddhism for Beginners: 8 Step Guide to Finding Peace and Enlightenment in Your Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min
When you attempt to introduce people to Buddhism, they have this very strange notion that they have to learn a new religion. That makes it complex for people who don't really understand what Buddhism is. Buddhism is a philosophy rather than a religion. That means that regardless of the religion you choose or the God that you worship, Buddhism can be incorporated into the way that you live your life without actually treading on the toes of religion. It's a way of life. It doesn't depend upon any kind of belief system, so even if you are heavily entrenched in your beliefs, you can still embrace Buddhism. Since the basis of Buddhism comes in the Eight-Fold Path, it seemed right that I should introduce Buddhism to beginners in eight steps. I do not purport to be right in this assumption, though I do know that what I have written is written from personal experience and knowledge of what Buddhism is all about and how much it can improve the way in which you live your life. You may not know much about the history of Buddhism but it is very relevant to what you get out of Buddhism and in the first chapter, I have explained a little about where Buddhism comes from and how the Eight-Fold Path was devised. This is important to your learning of Buddhism, which will indeed enrich your life with happiness. If that is what you are searching for, then look no further. The happiness level at which you are able to live your life does not depend upon status. It does not depend upon having a certain level of income. The pauper is as rich in happiness as the richest man on Earth if he understands and embraces Buddhist philosophy. Here Is A Preview Of What You Can Learn From This Book The roots of Buddhism Learning to be humble Mindfulness Learning relaxation and breathing techniques Respecting your posture And much more ungekürzt.
