    Artist Norman Thelwell is best known for his cartoons depicting plump, petulant ponies and their young riders, but The Effluent Society shows another aspect of his work and character. Thelwell was passionate about the countryside and nature. During his life he became increasingly concerned about the impact of development, pollution and society's treatment of the environment. When The Effluent Society was first published in 1971, his concerns were way ahead of their time. Today, environmental and conservation issues are in the mainstream and have become a global priority.
    
    Although the cartoons focus on a serious topic there is no mistaking Thelwell's inimitable style. He used his talent and humour to convey a powerful message: the need to protect the environment. He also takes a wry look at modern life and so-called progress. Thelwell admitted that out of all his books, The Effluent Society was the one that gave him the greatest 'personal satisfaction' and, as such, the re-issue of this title is a fitting tribute to the artist.

    How the World Listens explores our everyday and professional interactions with sound. The book aims to uncover the human relationship with sound across the world and to reveal practical ways in which a better understanding of listening can help us in our daily lives. 
     
     
     
    This book asks how sound is perceived, expressed, and interacted with in both remarkably similar and dramatically different ways across the world. Using findings from a new scientific study, conducted exclusively for this book, we embark on a globe-trotting adventure across more than thirty countries, through exclusive interviews with more than fifty individuals from all walks of life, from acousticians and film composers to human resource managers and costumiers. 
     
     
     
    How the World Listens is essential for anyone with an interest in human relationships with sound, including but not limited to sound design and music composition professionals, teachers, and researchers.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    What if consciousness is not something we have — but something reality is made of? 
    Ultimate Mind Theory begins with a single, undeniable truth: I am conscious. From that starting point, this book constructs a layered system of logic that reaches far beyond personal insight — into the architecture of existence itself. 
    This is not a spiritual belief or philosophical guess. 
     It is a theory — complete with structure, stages, and internal checks — that dares to ask: 
    What are the 7 irreducible facts of conscious experience? 
    What laws must follow from being aware at all? 
    Why do pain, desire, and emotion obey patterns — and what are they trying to resolve? 
    Could our personal struggles reflect a much older story — one built into the nature of reality? 
    Combining deep logic with emotional clarity, Ultimate Mind Theory offers a radical yet grounded map of existence. It reinterprets karma, suffering, evolution, and the very shape of the self — not through mysticism, but through coherent, testable reasoning. 
    For those discontent with shallow answers and hungry for meaning that holds up under pressure, this book offers a challenge: 
    Start with what you know. Follow it to where you never expected.

It is a book of both challenge and hope, written for those who are able or willing to lead us out of our global predicament. It is a book for everybody: the politicians, CEOs, community leaders, everyday parents, and young people who understand that we must change our ways to ensure a sustainable future for all living things and the planet we rely on.
