    'A very British love-letter to the beauty of flint' Daily Telegraph
Joanne Bourne has been in awe of flint as long as she can remember.
It was all around her where she grew up in Kent: used for garden walls, to edge drives and weight dustbin lids, as well as to build pubs, churches, Roman villas and castles. For centuries it was the only building stone available.
It is also magical. Made from the remains of plankton and sea sponges, it is second only in hardness to a diamond and can be used to make fire. Part of human development for three million years, it was used as a weapon to hunt and in war, and hung as protection against thunderbolts and fairies.
In a deeply personal love letter to this extraordinary 'biogenic' rock, Bourne traces its geological, architectural and social history and invites us to roam with her in search of it on her beloved North Downs.
Fusing science, poetry, history and a profound love of landscape, this is her heartfelt, thoroughly persuasive tribute to the stone she calls 'an art project of the great divine'.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
Discover how your smartphone has become the most intimate surveillance device in history, collecting data that reveals more about you than you know about yourself. This unsettling audiobook examines how mobile devices track every location, communication, search, purchase, and app interaction to construct psychological profiles of unprecedented accuracy. Learn why tech companies understand your habits, desires, vulnerabilities, and intentions better than people who have known you for years based solely on phone usage patterns. The narrator reveals specific data collection practices that transform innocent-seeming activities into psychological intelligence that predicts your behavior with disturbing accuracy. Discover how phone data reveals health conditions, financial status, relationship problems, and mental states you have shared with no one through patterns invisible to you but obvious to algorithms. Understand why you willingly carry the ultimate surveillance device everywhere, granting access to your life that no previous authoritarian regime could have imagined. This audiobook examines the business models that incentivize maximum data extraction, the psychological manipulation techniques that keep you engaged despite harm, and the impossibility of informed consent for data practices too complex for anyone to understand. Learn practical strategies for reducing phone surveillance and reclaiming privacy within the constraints of digital dependence. Essential listening for anyone carrying a smartphone who wants to understand what they are actually carrying.
