  Hunger of Memory is the story of Mexican-American Richard Rodriguez, who begins his schooling in Sacramento, California, knowing just fifty words of English, and concludes his university studies in the stately quiet of the reading room of the British Museum.Here is the poignant journey of a "minority student" who pays the cost of his social assimilation and academic success with a painful alienation—from his past, his parents, his culture—and so describes the high price of "making it" in middle-class America.Provocative in its positions on affirmative action and bilingual education, Hunger of Memory is a powerful political statement, a profound study of the importance of language . . . and the moving, intimate portrait of a boy struggling to become a man.

  Patrick Dorismond, Abner Louima, and Amadou Diallo -- hear what a jury of prominent African Americans has to say about the black man's struggle for justice in AmericaPrompted by the killing of Amadou Diallo and the acquittal of the four New York City police officers who mistook him for an armed criminal, this collection of essays by prominent black male writers offers twelve unique and startling perspectives on what it's like for a black man living in an inherently racist society.Coming from a broad spectrum of economic and social backgrounds, the poets, journalists, lawyers, writers, and academics that make up this jury write forcefully and eloquently about growing up and raising sons, identifying with others and yearning to be set apart, attempting reasonable discourse, and succumbing to unspeakable anger. Together these essays deconstruct the monolithic myths that shroud our nation's black men and offer small rays of hope that on the streets, at school and work, and in the courtroom justice will be served.

  6 books in 1 bundle, all related to whatever happens in your brain! 
  Book 1: Neuroplasticity - Neuroplasticity isn’t widely known, but it is not a new concept either. The principles and methods that refer to it have been tried and tested, and have helped people to remove stress, reorganize their thoughts, and take control of their lives. 
  Book 2: Emotional Maturity - Some people get older and never grow up. Others are very mature for their age. How can you determine when someone is really emotionally mature? And is there a way to become more mature faster?   
  Book 3: Photographic Memory - You may have heard of people who remember everything just by glancing at it: names, faces, numbers, or information. Well, it’s not unrealistic to develop a memory like that yourself. Our brain is like a storage unit - something like a camera storage unit. Data are constantly moving, but only some information sticks.  
  Book 4: Emotional Intelligence - You may have heard of emotional intelligence. You may have even learned a little bit about it. This audiobook, however, can take you to the next level of understanding what to do with the neural processes in your brain and how to channel them to gain more control over yourself and your situation.  
  Book 5: Conscientiousness - Are you applying the power of being conscientious in your life? If you want more out of life, or if you want to be more productive, it’s worth it to learn how to become more conscientious. Conscientiousness has been misunderstood in the past, but now we have a clear comprehension of what it can mean.  
  Book 6: Brain Training - As we all know, we only use a small portion of our brain, and just like muscles in other parts of our body, the brain can be trained to function better. The author will take you by the hand and show you what’s possible, and you will be amazed at what you are capable of.

  Among the world richest people, who are the richest people in the world? Those with a spiritual code of ethics (highest ethics and values, and ethical behavior).    In the Audio book "The Science of Money", Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan explains the spiritual science behind Money and it's use. He describes that one's ethical values create a spiritual balance sheet, influencing one's financial balance sheet.    Dadashri offers in-depth answers to questions such as:    "How would a spiritual teacher define business ethics?    "In financial dealings, which moral ethics are to be followed?"    "Among the ways to get rich, is it true that the simplest means is by giving away money?"    "Why is it helpful to donate to charity, and what are the reasons to make an anonymous donation?"    "Of the many charities to donate to, what are the best charities to donate to?"    Among the myriad of spiritual Audio books available today, it is rare to find spiritual guidance related to the use of money. For learning the hidden principles that govern one's ultimate balance sheet (what one leaves behind or takes with him when he dies), this Audio book will prove an invaluable resource.
