  This is a summary audiobook for popular and compelling books Disloyal: A Memoir by Michael Cohen and A Promised Land by Barack Obama.A summary should not substitute for its parent. The Best Sellers Summary series provides a harmonizing simplification of Best Sellers. Main points in a fraction of the time, and at a fraction of the cost, inject the reader with the vital facts and themes. Some versions will enhance understanding with added material that is clearly labeled. Disloyal reveals the darkest side of President Trump as testified by his personal attack dog and consigliere for over a decade, Michael Cohen.   
  Mesmerized by Trump like a cult member, Cohen began to see himself breaking his moral code, but stuck with Trump for money, power, and fame. Cohen boasts that he knew Trump better than his own family and it was not a pretty sight. He envisioned Trump as a sociopathic mobster boss who would do anything to win and destroy anybody who challenged him in his quest for success.Cohen dumps a truck load of Trump family skeletons at the reader’s feet and then picks them up one by one and executes a meticulous show-and-tell. 
  A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making, A Promised Land arises from the president who relates the story of his unlikely journey starting as a young boy in Indonesia and Hawaii. His time in prep school showed more passion for his jump-shot and partying than studying. We experience his college years under the admitted influence of Marxism, and more drugs, and into Harvard Law and as the President of the Law Review-- which would launch his political career with a substantial write-up in The New York Times. Obama takes readers on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to when he was elected and served as the 44th president of the United States.

  The things a person does and the places he visits in search of himself…Attempts to find peace of mind, harmony and tranquility push a wanderer to pursue answers in foreign countries, in impassable jungles or places popular for pilgrims, rush off to doubtful relations, make a multimillion fortune or just stuff himself with various mind-altering substances. And only having realized once that you just need to remember, because you have known all the answers for a long time. You just need to turn the “key to all doors”, which is always inside you.In the age of mosaic thinking, overconsumption and digital enslavement, it is quite difficult for most people to accept the idea that  in order to be in time, you need…to stop. Yes, yes, just to stop, close your eyes, take a deep breath, exhale, then again, and again, and again… And then your mind will be touched by revelations unknown to you until now. But between today’s you and a divine being you are meant to be, an abyss as large as Grand Canyon and as deep as Mariana Trench gapes. The fear of disappearing in one of visionary worlds stops you even from a try to make a step forward to close this gap. Disbelief, casual attitude and indifference towards yourself are just a few guardians of the humankind on the way toward awareness, regardless of the fact that it has been talked about so much recently. You can ignore the widespread tendency for emanation of eastern world perception beyond the bounds of historical territories of India, Cambodia and other spiritually uplifting countries, see another hype and fashion influence in it for as long as you want, or you can act otherwise.

  When is it okay for a person to kill themself? How have ideas about this changed over time, and how do they differ across cultures? How do Ireland's suicide rates, especially among its young men, compare to rates in other countries in Europe and beyond? Are we obsessed today with the idea of suicide? Is it possible to prevent suicide - and, if so, how? Should we try to prevent all suicides, or are there some that we should allow, regulate, even assist? Might some suicides be rational? How are families affected by suicide? What can they do if a family member is suicidal? How can they cope after a suicide? Are doctors able to identify which pregnant women are at high risk of killing themselves? Would allowing these women to have abortions make them less likely to kill themselves? In this wide-ranging review and analysis of historical and scientific research on the topic of suicide, authors Derek Beattie and Dr Patrick Devitt take an unflinching and often chillingly rational look at these questions and many others.

  The Ninefold Path - A Memoir

  Anthony Alioto was diagnosed with end stage renal disease in 1993 and was forced to go on dialysis for several years before receiving a successful kidney transplant in 2000.In The Ninefold Path, he invites readers to join him on a harrowing personal journey through a labyrinth of tests, “what can I expect” meetings with medical staff, surgeries, and near-death experiences.  He spares no detail in his desire to provide a guide for others living with a chronic disease – and their families and friends – on how to navigate the oftentimes rough waters of modern medicine.The Ninefold Path is for all of those wearily traveling through chronic illnesses and for those by their sides wondering what to do, it is a celebration of the extraordinary individuals in medicine who relieve the suffering of strangers each and every day. In cataloging detail, there is inspiration, plus a call to compassion and serenity.A Note to the Reader from The Ninefold Path:“The reader can expect to encounter a very personal and human account of chronic illness, sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious, and then at times simply absurd – but, hopefully, also moving.  One need not search for profound insights, recipes, therapy, or sage advice.  It is my hope that you will come away with a feeling, a sense of being there, maybe a kind of liberation from the ‘merely personal’ as Einstein phrased it, and a new appreciation for what others endure daily.  Even in the midst of suffering physical pain and mental anguish, a person may yet gain the freedom to live a life of celebration, joy, compassion, and serenity. Zen Master Kyong Ho once said, ‘Don’t hope for life without problems.  An easy life results in a judgmental and lazy mind.’”
