  Gravity is at once familiar and mysterious. It's the reason for the numbers on your bathroom scale, the intricate dance of the stars and planets, and the evolution and eventual fate of the universe. In Crush, James Riordon takes listeners on a tour of gravity from its vanishing insignificance on the microscopic scale to its crushing extreme inside black holes.From the moment we lift our heads as infants until the moment we lie down and ultimately surrender to its pull at the end of our lives, we labor under the burden of gravity. It has guided the shape and structure of our bodies over eons of evolution and sculpted the Earth as it cooled from a blob of molten rock. As Riordon explains, the stars couldn't shine without gravity holding them together. Even the atoms that make up you and everything around you were forged in stellar furnaces that gravity built. It took Einstein to realize that gravity is not, in fact, a force at all, but instead the curvature of space and time.A fascinating and memorable listen, Crush examines our personal relationships with gravity; explores gravity's role in making the universe uniquely hospitable for life; and even reveals how the mundane flow of water in your kitchen sink offers a glimpse into the secrets of black holes.

  Peter Singer - Ethics in the...

  Peter Singer is one of the most influential philosophers in contemporary ethics, known for his contributions to utilitarianism, animal rights, global poverty, bioethics, and environmental ethics. His ethical philosophy is grounded in the principle of utilitarianism, which holds that the right course of action is the one that produces the greatest overall happiness or well-being. Singer’s work is characterized by a practical, results-oriented approach, focusing on how ethical principles can be applied to real-world issues to alleviate suffering and promote well-being. His influential works, such as Animal Liberation and The Life You Can Save, challenge readers to consider the moral implications of their actions in a variety of contexts, from how they treat animals to how they engage with global poverty. 
  At the core of Singer’s ethical framework is the idea that all sentient beings, regardless of their species, deserve equal consideration. This principle of equal consideration of interests leads to his advocacy for the rights of animals, arguing that their capacity to suffer should give them moral consideration equal to that of humans. Singer’s call for animal liberation challenges the traditional view of animals as resources for human consumption and urges society to rethink its treatment of non-human creatures. 
  In addition to his work in animal ethics, Singer has profoundly impacted discussions on global poverty and humanitarian aid. Through his concept of effective altruism, he argues that individuals in affluent societies have a moral obligation to help those in extreme poverty. Using the famous “drowning child” analogy, Singer demonstrates that if we are morally obligated to save a child from drowning in a shallow pond, we should equally be compelled to help those suffering from poverty and preventable diseases, no matter the physical distance.
