Sophisticated Giant: The Life and Legacy of Dexter Gordon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 652min
Sophisticated Giant presents the life and legacy of tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon (1923-1990), one of the major innovators of modern jazz. In a context of biography, history, and memoir, Maxine Gordon has completed the book that her late husband began, weaving his “solo” turns with her voice and a chorus of voices from past and present. Reading like a jazz composition, the blend of research, anecdote, and a selection of Dexter’s personal letters reflects his colorful life and legendary times. It is clear why the celebrated trumpet genius Dizzy Gillespie said to Dexter, “Man, you ought to leave your karma to science.” Dexter Gordon the icon is the Dexter beloved and celebrated on albums, on film, and in jazz lore - even in a street named for him in Copenhagen. But this image of the cool jazzman fails to come to terms with the multidimensional man full of humor and wisdom, a figure who struggled to reconcile being both a creative outsider who broke the rules and a comforting insider who was a son, father, husband, and world citizen. This essential book is an attempt to fill in the gaps created by our misperceptions as well as the gaps left by Dexter himself. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Uncle Tom's Cabin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1208min
Uncle Tom's Cabin opens with a Kentucky farmer named Arthur Shelby facing the loss of his farm because of debts. Even though he and his wife, Emily Shelby, believe that they have a benevolent relationship with their slaves, Shelby decides to raise the needed funds by selling two of them - Uncle Tom, a middle-aged man with a wife and children, and Harry, the son of Emily Shelby's maid Eliza - to a slave trader. Emily Shelby hates the idea of doing this because she had promised her maid that her child would never be sold; Emily's son, George Shelby, hates to see Tom go because he sees the old man as his friend and mentor. When Uncle Tom's Cabin was published in 1852, it became an international blockbuster, selling more than 300,000 copies in the United States alone in its first year. Progressive for her time, Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of the earliest writers to offer a shockingly realistic depiction of slavery. Her stirring indictment and portrait of human dignity in the most inhumane circumstances enlightened hundreds of thousands of people by revealing the human costs of slavery, which had until then been cloaked and justified by the racist misperceptions of the time. ungekürzt.

The Mythology of Narcissism: Pathology of the Consumer Age: Scholarly Articles, Volume 13 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 49min
The Mythology of Narcissism: Pathology of the Consumer Age is the 13th volume in the Scholarly Articles series. The Mythology of Narcissism - 2017 revised, updated, and reformatted edition - is a scholarly article both for neophytes and professionals on the subject of narcissism, a recognized psychiatric pathology or disorder that the author identifies, for various reasons, as typically related to our modern consumer culture. The author first identifies the typical symptoms and the overall behavior pattern of persons who suffer from narcissistic wounds. In this context, the author also informs about common misperceptions of this disorder and is outspoken about the true etiology, which is a lack of self-love that is caused by severe wounding early in childhood and youth. This wounding is often the result of parent-child co-dependence and emotional abuse as well as a stringent lack of autonomy early in life. The author then reviews an important work on the etiology of narcissism, Care of the Soul. Published by Thomas More in 1994, Care of the Soul sees the healing of the narcissistic wounding in caring for the soul and developing one’s soul values instead of "playing" a comedy for pleasing others, thereby avoiding access to one’s true self. The article comes with a comprehensive Bibliography. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Fritz Walter. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/146445/bk_acx0_146445_sample.mp3.

The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide: Safe, Therapeutic, and Sacred Journeys , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 698min
Called "America's wisest and most respected authority on psychedelics and their use", James Fadiman has been involved with psychedelic research since the 1960s. In this guide to the immediate and long-term effects of psychedelic use for spiritual (high dose), therapeutic (moderate dose), and problem-solving (low dose and microdose) purposes, Fadiman outlines best practices for safe, sacred entheogenic voyages learned through his more than 40 years of experience - from the benefits of having a sensitive guide during a session (and how to be one) to the importance of the setting and pre-session intention. Fadiman reviews the newest as well as the neglected research into the psychotherapeutic value of visionary drug use for increased personal awareness and a host of serious medical conditions, including his recent study of the reasons for and results of psychedelic use among hundreds of students and professionals. He reveals new uses for LSD and other psychedelics, including microdosing, extremely low doses for improved cognitive functioning and emotional balance. Cautioning that psychedelics are not for everyone, he dispels the myths and misperceptions about psychedelics circulating in textbooks and clinics as well as on the Internet.

Poor Economics: A Radical Rethinking of the Way to Fight Global Poverty , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 690min
Billions of government dollars, and thousands of charitable organizations and NGOs, are dedicated to helping the world’s poor. But much of their work is based on assumptions that are untested generalizations at best, harmful misperceptions at worst. Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo have pioneered the use of randomized control trials in development economics. Work based on these principles, supervised by the Poverty Action Lab, is being carried out in dozens of countries. Drawing on this and their 15 years of research from Chile to India, Kenya to Indonesia, they have identified wholly new aspects of the behavior of poor people, their needs, and the way that aid or financial investment can affect their lives. Their work defies certain presumptions: that microfinance is a cure-all, that schooling equals learning, that poverty at the level of 99 cents a day is just a more extreme version of the experience any of us have when our income falls uncomfortably low. This important book illuminates how the poor live, and offers all of us an opportunity to think of a world beyond poverty.

In Bed with Susie Bright 590: Susie's and Bryan Cranston's Big Sex Scene, Hörbuch, Digital, 31min, (USK 18)
It's true! Susie coached Breaking Bad's "Walter White" (Bryan Cranston) on the proper way to do an erotic love scene. It was 1994, and Susie was working on a movie as a writer. She was asked to help two actors who were rehearsing a very steamy scene. Susie remembers how sweet and gentlemanly Bryan Cranston was back then. She kept giving him pointers on how to get nastier and sexier. Looks like Susie's coaching really helped him to find his inner Walter. Next, Susie shares a recent interview she did with Slantthere.com. They were interested in Susie's take on contemporary sexual politics. The discussion ranged from Internet porn and misperceptions about erotica to the deadliness of prudery. Finally, from the "Try This at Home" mailbag, a letter requiring an urgent reply: "Do kinky lovers use S/M to avoid real intimacy?" Wow, does Susie have a lot to say about that! Have a question? You can call Susie's hotline at 831-480-5110. And you can send your confidential questions - plus requests for free samples and blog banners! - to susie@susiebright.com [Episode 590, October 25, 2013] Explicit Language Warning: You must be 18 years or older to purchase this program.

The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology (eBook, PDF)
Research on Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity has increased dramatically in recent decades, and a diverse array of disciplines have begun to address a range of elements of these movements. Yet, there exists very little understanding of Pentecostal theology, and it is not uncommon to encounter stereotypes and misperceptions. Addressing this gap in current research, The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is an exceptional reference source to the key topics, challenges, and debates in this growing field of study and is the first collection of its kind to offer a comprehensive presentation and critical discussion of this subject. Comprising over forty chapters written by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into five parts: Contextualizing Pentecostal Theology Sources Theological Method Doctrines and Practices Conversations and Challenges. These sections take the reader through a comprehensive introduction to what Pentecostals believe and how they practice their faith. Looking at issues such as the core teachings of Pentecostalism concerning Spirit baptism, divine healing, or eschatology; unique practices, such as spiritual warfare and worship; and less discussed issues, such as social justice and gender, each chapter builds towards a nuanced and global picture of the theology of the Pentecostal movement. The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is essential reading for students and researchers in Pentecostal Studies, World Christianity, and Theology as well as scholars working in contemporary Religious Studies.- Shop: buecher

The Most Misunderstood Women of the Bible (eBook, ePUB)
Understanding Isn't Overrated. Ask any woman-most of us know what it's like to be misheard, mischaracterized, or misrepresented by family, friends, or strangers. Few of us feel deeply known and understood all the time. Worse, many of us have endured long, painful seasons of misunderstanding in which the people around us have questioned-or worse, judged-our motives and actions. We have asked ourselves, How do I correct these misperceptions? Do I try to defend myself-or does that only make me look guilty? How can I recover my joy even if someone believes something about me that isn't true? This problem-and your feelings and questions about it-is nothing new. In fact, women have faced it since the dawn of time. In this engaging book, Mary DeMuth tells the tales of ten women in the Bible who were misunderstood in their own time and often still are-bringing to each of them a deep humanity that makes her, and her problems, more relatable to twenty-first-century you. If you are struggling with feeling misunderstood, let these stories inspire you to grow and remind you that you are not alone. And remember: There is always One who understands you perfectly and stands ready to comfort, strengthen, and defend you through every situation you face.- Shop: buecher
