The Underworld is a captivating book by Susan Casey, a bestselling author of The Soul of an Octopus. The book explores the mysterious world beneath the waves and the men and women who seek to uncover its secrets. The deep ocean has been a source of wonder and terror for centuries, but cutting-edge technologies have allowed scientists and explorers to dive miles beneath the surface. The underwater world is home to pink gelatinous predators, shimmering creatures, ancient animals with glass skeletons, and sharks that live for half a millennium. Casey's journey takes readers on a fascinating journey through the history of deep-sea exploration, from myths and legends to storied shipwrecks and the first intrepid bathysphere pilots. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the deep ocean's complexity and ecological importance in a time of increasing threats from climate change, industrial fishing, pollution, and mining companies.

    Coming from a working-class background, Paul Besley knew the worst and best of life in a Yorkshire steel town. He had always been drawn to the solitude of the hills, but that life nearly ended when a fall while hillwalking left him critically injured and alone in the mountains of the Lake District. Paul was found and brought to safety by a mountain rescue team. This was the trigger for him to transform his life, first by joining his local team, then by finding Scout, his very own Border collie puppy, and training him to become a mountain rescue search dog.
In The Search, Paul writes with humour and honesty as we follow him and Scout through their complex training, with searches and rescue incidents sometimes tragic and often funny. Paul's demons and headstrong characters threaten to derail them, until his past finally catches up with him and his life inescapably unravels. It's up to Scout to keep an eye on him now as Paul tries to build the best life he can.

    On the eve of World War I, a band of Indian immigrants living in the United States hatched an audacious plan to liberate their homeland from British colonial rule. Founded by a group of student radicals at UC Berkeley, the Ghadar Movement mounted one of the most significant challenges to the British Raj before the rise of the Indian National Congress under Gandhi—but unlike the INC, the Ghadar Movement advocated for a violent insurrection against colonial rule. From its bases on the West Coast of the US and Canada, the movement recruited thousands of supporters via its underground newspaper and sent hundreds of freedom fighters across the Pacific in an attempt to smuggle guns and seditious literature into India—an effort abetted by spies working for the German government, who were keen to undermine a wartime adversary. All the while, the Ghadar Movement was tracked by Britain's intelligence service, which eventually convinced the US government to crack down. The result was one of the most complex trials to date, culminating in a courtroom gun battle that shocked the nation. Scott Miller's Let My Country Awake is the first book to tell the story of this overlooked moment in Indian, and American, history—one that offers a new perspective on anticolonial struggle in the twentieth century.

    This audiobook is a great addition to the library of any Black Man. It takes you through a journey in the form of affirmations, and personal statements that remind us about our self-worth, dignity, and power. The goal is to build your own sense of personal power and dignity. Black men need to be reminded that they are so much better than what society has made them believe and to remind themselves of all the achievements they have made in their lives. 
These affirmations are a great way to build confidence and deal with past issues that may have been holding you back. It has a positive outlook throughout the entire audiobook, with each affirmation speaking directly to black men. There are affirmations that not only teach you how to be the best person you can be but there are ones that will also inspire you to make every day a better one. Each day is always a new chance to start over and actual change can only come from within. 
This audiobook is different from other audiobooks of this type because it really speaks more than just simply encouraging words. It addresses issues that African-Americans face on a daily basis and helps them work through these in their own lives. It can be a great way to build confidence and start over again. Life is too short to let negativity hold you back in any way, shape, or form. If you are looking for that extra push to get out of your comfort zone and make a change in your life, then this audiobook is the right one for you. It can give you a little extra boost that will take your life to the next level while teaching you how to keep repeating affirmations repeatedly.

    Choosing Well - The Good the Bad...

    Self-defeating behavior and the damage it can cause constitute a rich and intriguing area of philosophical inquiry. Choosing Well explores the challenges associated with effective choice over time from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Andreou focuses on the challenges raised by cyclic preferences and incomplete preferences, both of which interfere with our ability to neatly order our options and thus make us susceptible to self-defeating patterns of choice which in turn create unacceptable results. 
 
 
 
What are we to do if we find ourselves with cyclic preferences or with incomplete preferences? Do such preferences make us irrational? Andreou argues that rationality does not invariably prohibit disorderly preferences but does prompt us to proceed with caution when preferences are disorderly. Theories of rational choice often dismiss or abstract away from the sorts of disorderly preferences that Andreou focuses on, since they assume that rational agents can and should have neat preferences over their options. Instead, Andreou suggests, rationality can validate certain disorderly preference structures while also protecting us from self-defeating patterns of choice.
