Fatty Liver and Insulin...

Mark Sutherland

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
One in four adults is walking around with a liver quietly overloaded with fat, and almost none of them know it because this disease produces no symptoms until it has already done real damage. The first hint is usually a number on a routine blood panel, flagged almost by accident during a checkup for something else entirely.  
This audiobook explains what NAFLD actually is and why insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis feed each other in a loop that worsens the longer it goes unnoticed.  
It walks through the blood markers that actually reveal what's happening inside that organ — blood sugar, A1C, and triglycerides — instead of guessing from how you feel.  
It also covers what the internet gets right and wrong about diet, why visceral fat matters more than the number on the scale, and what genuinely reverses versus what only gets managed.  
Told through the story of a woman who found out by accident and the family conversation that followed, it lays out exactly what to ask a doctor when the first answer isn't good enough.

Jesus Germs and the Great...

Faith Christie RN

Is it possible to be a Christian and a nurse at the same time? 
When I first started out in my calling as a nurse, I thought the answer to that question was an easy "yes," but then as I walked the long halls of the hospital, I started to have questions:Is it ever okay to pray for a patient?Why do I feel so awkward asking for a chaplain?When death is real, does heaven have a place in the hospital? 
I tried to find resources written by other Christian medical professionals to help me, but all I ever heard were statements on ethics and the legal repercussions of bringing "coercive" faith to the bedside. 
Then I faced death myself in an ICU bed and learned that a lot of my fears were irrelevant in the Presence of the living God. And with that realization, I began to learn how God could make me a Christian and a nurse at the same time. 
Facing death in an ICU bed is a high-risk education not everyone can afford, so I've collected the lessons learned during my journey in this book. These spiritual case studies can be used to help nurses bring their faith to work. 
Discussion Questions included for small group study or personal growth.

Artificial Intelligence Secrets...

Ryan Baumgartner

What if artificial intelligence stopped feeling like a black box you're simply supposed to trust?

You're told AI will reshape your career, yet nobody hands you a clear picture of how it actually works or what it means for you. So you nod along in meetings, half-guessing, quietly hoping the technology doesn't leave you behind.

That not-quite-knowing wears on you. It's hard to make confident choices about your skills or your next move when the force driving all the change stays a mystery.

This two-in-one collection carries you from the fundamentals to the real-world impact, with no technical background required. Here, at last, is artificial intelligence explained in plain language. In this audiobook, you'll discover:

The three types of AI - what narrow, general, and super intelligence really mean once you strip away the buzzwords.
How machines actually learn - why an everyday spam filter reveals the whole logic behind machine learning.
The main training methods - supervised, unsupervised, and semi-supervised learning, plus classification, regression, and adversarial training.
How deep learning works - the neural networks that power it, and why there are so many different kinds.
The tools behind the tech - the programming languages, bots, and platforms like TensorFlow that make AI run.
Where AI already lives in your day - from email and social media to maps and smart personal assistants.
How major companies deploy it - the way AI reshapes marketing, finance, and customer service.
What stays uniquely human - the skills to double down on as the machines advance.

You'll learn from clear, grounded explanations, including insight from computer scientist Melanie Mitchell, creator of the analogy-making program Copycat.

You don't need a degree or a background in coding to follow a word of it. Understand how the technology works, and it stops being something that happens to you and becomes something you can use.
