  This program includes an epilogue and acknowledgements read by the author“A fascinating tale of poisons and poisonous deeds which both educates and entertains.” --Kathy ReichsAs any reader or listener of murder mysteries can tell you, poison is one of the most enduring—and popular—weapons of choice for a scheming murderer. It can be slipped into a drink, smeared onto the tip of an arrow or the handle of a door, even filtered through the air we breathe. But how exactly do these poisons work to break our bodies down, and what can we learn from the damage they inflict?In a fascinating blend of popular science, medical history, and true crime, Dr. Neil Bradbury explores this most morbidly captivating method of murder from a cellular level. Alongside real-life accounts of murderers and their crimes—some notorious, some forgotten, some still unsolved—are the equally compelling stories of the poisons involved: eleven molecules of death that work their way through the human body and, paradoxically, illuminate the way in which our bodies function.Drawn from historical records and current news headlines, A Taste for Poison weaves together the tales of spurned lovers, shady scientists, medical professionals and political assassins to show how the precise systems of the body can be impaired to lethal effect through the use of poison. From the deadly origins of the gin & tonic cocktail to the arsenic-laced wallpaper in Napoleon’s bedroom, A Taste for Poison leads listeners on a fascinating tour of the intricate, complex systems that keep us alive—or don’t.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press

  Space is a place of unparalleled possibility for humanity, and it's undergoing a revolution. A wave of companies led by gutsy entrepreneurs are unlocking opportunities that fire the imagination. No, it's not hotels on Mars or day trips to orbit (yet), but it's an awe-inspiring transformation driven by innovative technologies, creative approaches, hard work, and—for the first time—market forces. Above all, this revolution is uncovering the simple but unfamiliar truth that space is a place: a place where countries, markets, and each of us can play a vital role in realizing some of our biggest, boldest dreams. 
   
   
   
  But we won't succeed through dreams alone. The space economy is just that—an economy—governed by the same laws of supply and demand that apply here on Earth. The authors, who teach a highly popular course on the topic at Harvard Business School, bring the revolution in space to life through players you know—like SpaceX and Blue Origin—and many you may not, like Astroscale, founded by a Japanese IT executive who quit his job to start a company to clean up space debris. They also bring to bear fundamental tools from economics to understand how the market in space is forming, how it's fast becoming a source of value for businesses across industries and for society as a whole, and how we can best ensure that its growth benefits us all.

  Gen Z's first "existential toolkit" for combating eco-guilt and burnout while advocating for climate justice. 
   
   
   
  A youth movement is reenergizing global environmental activism. The "climate generation"—late millennials and iGen, or Generation Z—is demanding that policy makers and government leaders take immediate action to address the dire outcomes predicted by climate science. Those inheriting our planet's environmental problems expect to encounter challenges, but they may not have the skills to grapple with the feelings of powerlessness and despair that may arise when they confront this seemingly intractable situation. 
   
   
    
  Drawing on a decade of experience leading and teaching in college environmental studies programs, Sarah Jaquette Ray has created an "existential tool kit" for the climate generation. Combining insights from psychology, sociology, social movements, mindfulness, and the environmental humanities, Ray explains why and how we need to let go of eco-guilt, resist burnout, and cultivate resilience while advocating for climate justice. A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety is the essential guidebook for the climate generation—and perhaps the rest of us—as we confront the greatest environmental threat of our time.

  Essay Towards A New Theory Of...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. State-of-the-art voice generation technology, combined with careful human editing, has been employed in this production of "An Essay Towards A New Theory Of Vision" by George Berkeley in order to make this important text more widely accessible to modern audiences. Listeners are invited to explore the audio sample and judge the quality for themselves. 
   
  First published in 1709, Berkeley’s Essay is a landmark in the philosophy of perception. Its central claim is that we do not immediately see distance, depth, or three-dimensional space. Instead, vision presents signs (colors, lights, shapes, and appearances) that we learn to connect with touch, movement, and bodily action. What seems obvious to sight is, for Berkeley, the result of habit, association, and interpretation. 
   
  Before developing his immaterialism in the "Principles of Human Knowledge" and the "Three Dialogues", Berkeley uses vision to question what is truly given in perception. The work prepares his critique of abstract ideas, his challenge to mind-independent matter, and his idea that the natural world functions like a language through which God guides human beings. 
   
  Although modern vision science has moved far beyond Berkeley’s specific explanations, the questions he raises remain deeply relevant. His view of perception as learned, practical, and action-oriented anticipates later concerns in pragmatism, where meaning is tied to use and experience, and in phenomenology, where perception is understood through embodiment and our lived relation to the world. His emphasis on the coordination of sight, touch, and movement also resonates with contemporary cognitive science and theories of embodied perception. For listeners interested in philosophy, psychology, or the history of ideas, "An Essay Towards A New Theory Of Vision" remains a concise and provocative starting point for thinking about how we come to experience the world.
