  This is the all original edition. The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.A seminal and controversial figure in the history of political thought and public relations, Edward Bernays (1891-1995) pioneered the scientific technique of shaping and manipulating public opinion, which he famously dubbed, "engineering of consent." During World War I, he was an integral part of the US Committee on Public Information (CPI), a powerful propaganda apparatus that was mobilized to package, advertise, and sell the war to the American people as one that would "Make the World Safe for Democracy". The CPI would become the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon.Bernays applied the techniques he had learned in the CPI and, incorporating some of the ideas of Walter Lipmann, as well as his uncle, Sigmund Freud, became an outspoken proponent of propaganda as a tool for democratic and corporate manipulation of the population. His 1928 bombshell Propaganda lays out his eerily prescient vision for using propaganda to regiment the collective mind in a variety of areas, including government, politics, art, science, and education. To listen to this book today is to frightfully comprehend what our contemporary institutions of government and business have become in regards to organized manipulation of the masses.

  Having lived through recessions and pandemics, we all recognize the importance of financial well-being.

You know that money isn't the silver bullet to social injustice and economic exclusion, but it certainly can help!

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  The original Self-Help book by Samuel Smiles (1859) is the undisputed blueprint for personal success and self-reliance. However, the 15-hour original is a verbose, dense slog of historical footnotes and moral lectures. Your time is too valuable for that. 
  This is the Self-Help Modern Edition, stripped down to its absolute, high-octane essence and converted into a pure, 60-minute solution. We replaced the fluff with the fire, delivering more actionable wisdom and historical precedent than ten modern self-help gurus combined. 
  It is the original, brass-tacks philosophy of self-reliance, adapted for the modern, low-attention economy. 
  Across ten highly-focused chapters, you will master the Ten Laws of Self-Help, condensed into powerful, actionable concepts: 
  Self-Reliance: Stop waiting for a saviour. Your success is your personal, sovereign duty. 
  Financial Discipline: Debt is a form of slavery. Secure the dignity of the sacred power of the purse. 
  Character: Your integrity is your highest currency and the rock upon which all trust is built. 
  Perseverance: Embrace defeat as instruction. Industry always beats talent. 
  Initiative: Reject the fatal flaw of wishful thinking. The urgent call to radical initiative. 
  This is the uncompromising call to personal action. Stop consuming, start creating. You have the blueprint. Now, go build. 
  Adapted by Jai Pandit.
