  In this 1997 conversation with Michael and Justine Toms, Alice Walker says “Something was lost when we took to heart traditional religious stories in which God is separate from nature. And something precious is regained when we honor our intrinsic sense of awe and worship toward nature, and our deep desire for connection with both nature and our human community.” 
  Walker is the author of many books including the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Color Purple (Simon & Schuster 1982) and Anything We Love Can Be Saved (Random House 1997). 
  Topics explored in this dialogue include: 
  •	The real nature of human nature 
  •	A new look at the stories of Adam and Eve, Sarah and Hagar 
  •	Why religious stories can be dangerous, and food should be free 
  •	Church life in the deep South 
  •	The story of one of Walker1s ancestors in slavery 
  •	A compassionate perspective on Winnie Mandela 
  •	Fidel Castro as champion of the Cuban people 
  •	Prison labor in the U.S. and China

  The basis of competition is changing. Rivalry is shifting from well-defined industries to broader ecosystems: automobiles to mobility platforms; banking to fintech; television broadcasting to video streaming. Your competitors are coming from new directions and pursuing different goals from those of your familiar rivals. In this world, succeeding with the old rules can mean losing the new game. Winning the Right Game introduces the concepts, tools, and frameworks necessary to confront the threat of ecosystem disruption and to develop the strategies that will let your organization play ecosystem offense. 
   
   
   
  To succeed in this world, you need to change your perspective on competition, growth, and leadership. Strategy expert Ron Adner offers a new way of thinking, illustrating breakthrough ideas with compelling cases. How did a strategy of ecosystem defense save Wayfair and Spotify from being crushed by Amazon and Apple? How did Oprah Winfrey redraw industry boundaries to transition from television host to multimedia mogul? How did a shift to an alignment mindset enable Microsoft's cloud-based revival? Each was rooted in a new approach to competitors, partners, and timing that you can apply to your own organization. For today's leaders the difference between success and failure is no longer simply winning, but rather being sure that you are winning the right game.

  A Life Worth Living

  Sometimes, looking at your past can give you the strength to move forward. As the classic symptoms of Parkinsons disease began to take control of Simon's life, he became a shadow of his former self. After months of fighting to keep the disease in check, Simon finally found the strength to tell his family and even managed to book an appointment with a neurologist. Sadly, at a time when he needed an experienced health care professional to help him fight his corner, what he got was a cold, uncaring man who clearly had no time for his situation. However, his initial assessment proved to be 100% accurate; at just 36 years of age, Simon was told he had Parkinsons disease. The desire to produce a written account of his life for his immediate family and friends led to A Life Worth Living. Ingram looks back at his life, often with humour and pathos, and decides that the way to keep going is to appreciate the life he has led. The only way to fight is to appreciate what battles he has already fought and won. After all, what else makes a life worth living? Ingram's first-hand account of his life from his early childhood to teen years to his first signs of the debilitating disease give an insider's look at not just a 'disease' but a man.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  A World Unbroken explores an alternate history in which humanity never faced the devastation of plague. Through a series of deeply researched and humanized chapters, the book examines how uninterrupted population growth, stable communities, and the absence of mass mortality would have shaped every aspect of society, science, and culture. From art and architecture to law, migration, and the environment, each chapter delves into the ways in which continuity, rather than crisis, would have influenced the evolution of human experience. The narrative weaves together the threads of hope, fear, ambition, and innovation, offering a compelling vision of a world where progress is steady, traditions are preserved, and new challenges arise from abundance rather than loss.
