Synopsis

Argentinian Time Culture explores the unique ways Argentina perceives and uses time, revealing how deeply ingrained cultural values shape daily life. It highlights how social timing differs significantly from more punctual cultures, influencing everything from late-night dinners to flexible work schedules. One intriguing aspect is the "sobremesa," the lingering at the table after a meal, emphasizing social bonds over strict schedules. The book argues that rather than being about inefficiency, Argentinian time culture reflects a complex system of social prioritization rooted in historical, social, and economic realities.

 
The book examines the historical roots of these customs, influenced by European immigration and indigenous traditions, and how they manifest in contemporary society. It progresses through sections that explore the core concepts of social timing, the historical evolution of Argentinian time perception, and the contemporary manifestations of these values in various settings.

 
Through historical documents, sociological studies, and personal narratives, the book provides a comprehensive portrayal of Argentina's cultural identity and offers valuable insights for cross-cultural communication, international business, and a deeper understanding of Latin American societies.

    The world's leading investigator of consciousness argues that by understanding what consciousness does—cause change in the world—we can understand its origins and its future 
     
     
     
    In Then I Am Myself the World, Christof Koch explores the only thing we directly experience: consciousness. At the book's heart is integrated-information theory, the idea that the essence of consciousness is the ability to exert causal power over itself, to be an agent of change. Koch investigates the physical origins of consciousness in the brain and how this knowledge can be used to measure consciousness in natural and artificial systems. 
     
     
     
    Enabled by such tools, Koch reveals when and where consciousness exists, and uses that knowledge to confront major social and scientific questions: When does a fetus first become self-aware? Can psychedelic and mystical experiences transform lives? What happens to consciousness in near-death experiences? Why will generative AI ultimately be able to do the very thing we can do, yet never feel any of it? And do our experiences reveal a single, objective reality? 
     
     
     
    This is an essential book for anyone who seeks to understand ourselves and the future we are creating.

    Could being Black in America make you sick? Over the last decade, Kevin Dedner has been on a mission to explore this powerful and troubling question, shining an unconventional spotlight on the impact of racism on mental health. In his debut book, The Joy of the Disinherited, Dedner articulates his call for urgent change: We must knock down the invisible barriers that make it harder for Black people to get the mental health care they need and deserve. Building on American author and civil rights leader Howard Thurman’s Jesus and the Disinherited, widely considered a manual of resistance for the oppressed, Dedner uses Thurman’s teachings to come to terms with the impact oppression has had on his own mental health and the mental health of Black Americans, digging into family stories as examples of the legacy of unresolved generational trauma of the disinherited.As a public health professional who has spent his career working on high-profile issues, Dedner uses his autobiographical essays to highlight the latest mental health research, while simultaneously interrogating the invisible barriers he has encountered along his own mental health journey. Dedner weaves together research, personal storytelling and a powerful sense of our shared history to drive the conversation about the future of mental health care. This audiobook is intended to be an immersive experience designed to help you navigate and better understand your own struggles with mental health. You are encouraged to listen to it chronologically. However, you may find that certain sections speak more to where you are, where you’ve been, or where you’re going on your personal mental health journey. In addition to the text, our reader has created a song entitled, “The Story of the Disinherited,” which summarizes the entire book. You will hear excerpts from the song at the end of each chapter. At the end of the reading, you can hear the entire song.
