  "An inspiring book about love in its purest form."—JANE GOODALL, DBE, Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace 
   
   
   
  When Melody Horrill arrived at university she was a troubled and lost young woman, hiding behind a carefully crafted exterior. She had experienced a childhood of emotional and physical trauma mainly at the hands of her violent father that was as damaging as it was brutal. 
   
   
   
  One day Melody volunteered to help her lecturer monitor pods of river dolphins nearby. There for the first time she encountered Jock, a solitary dolphin with a maimed fin, who lived apart from the highly social pods. Melody was to form a bond with Jock that gave her the key to freeing herself from the demons of her own past, and their extraordinary friendship was the start of a long-term mission to try to save the river dolphins. 
   
   
   
  Beautifully written and filled with insight and compassion, Melody's memoir details her life-changing friendship with the river dolphins, and how Jock helped her to heal.

  Quantum Physics Made Simple -...

  Quantum physics sounds brilliant—until someone actually tries to explain it. 
  Suddenly you’re drowning in equations, paradoxes, or New Age promises. You’re told particles can be in two places at once… that time isn’t real… that light behaves like a wave and a particle… but no one seems to explain how or why in a way that actually makes sense. 
  So you nod, smile, and move on—still confused. 
  This audiobook fixes that. 
  You’ll understand what superposition really is. What tunneling actually means. How Einstein proved light could knock out electrons. Why your thoughts might influence physical matter. And how quantum theory is powering the next generation of computers and technologies. 
  Here’s what you’ll take away:Why Max Planck’s idea shattered physics—and created an entirely new oneWhat the birth of the universe has to do with particle uncertaintyHow particles tunnel through walls (yes, seriously)Why black body radiation melted 19th-century science—and changed everythingWhat light really is, and why it behaves so weirdlyHow Einstein explained the photoelectric effect—and kicked off the tech ageWhy quantum physics and the Law of Attraction might have more in common than you thinkHow time works in quantum theory (hint: not how you expect)Why one particle can be in two places at once—and what that means for your computerWhat quantum computing is, and how it’s already rewriting the rules 
  If you’ve ever wished someone would finally explain quantum physics like a real person would, here it is.Start listening and see just how simple this “impossible” science can be.

  Of Ice and Men - How We've Used...

  An exploration of humanity’s relationship with ice since the dawn of civilization, Of Ice and Men reminds us that only by understanding this unique substance can we save the ice on our planet—and perhaps ourselves. 
   
  Ice tells a story. It writes it in rock. It lays it down, snowfall by snowfall at the ends of the earth where we may read it like the rings on a tree. It tells our planet’s geological and climatological tale. 
   
  Ice tells another story too: a story about us. It is a tale packed with swash-buckling adventure and improbable invention, peopled with driven, eccentric, often brilliant characters. It tells how our species has used ice to reshape the world according to our needs and our desires: how we have survived it, harvested it, traded it, bent science to our will to make it—and how in doing so we have created globe-spanning infrastructures that are entirely dependent upon it. 
   
  And even after we have done all that, we take ice so much for granted that we barely notice it. 
   
  Ice has supercharged the modern world. It has allowed us to feed ourselves and cure ourselves in ways unimaginable two hundred years ago. It has enabled the global population to rise from less than 1 billion to nearly 7½ billion—which just happens to cover the same period of time as humanity has harvested, manufactured, and distributed ice on an industrial scale. 
   
  And yet the roots of our fascination with ice and its properties run much deeper than the recent past.

  Moonshot - Inside Pfizer's...

  2022 Genesis Prize Laureate 
  The exclusive, first-hand, behind-the-scenes story of how Pfizer raced to create the first Covid-19 vaccine, told by Pfizer’s Chairman and CEO Dr. Albert Bourla. 
  A riveting, fast-paced, inside look at one of the most incredible private sector achievements in history, Moonshot recounts the intensive nine months in 2020 when the scientists at Pfizer, under the visionary leadership of Dr. Albert Bourla, made “the impossible possible”—creating, testing, and manufacturing a safe and effective Covid-19 vaccine that previously would have taken years to develop.  
  Dr. Bourla chronicles how the brilliant, dedicated minds at Pfizer, under the enormous strains of the global pandemic, overcame a series of crises that were compounded by social and political unrest, and reveals the doubts, decisions, obstacles, and failures they encountered. As Dr. Bourla makes clear, Pfizer’s success wasn’t due to luck; it was because of preparation driven by four simple values—Courage, Excellence, Equity, and Joy. 
  Moonshot is a story of leadership under the most unprecedented circumstances—how Dr. Bourla, a Greek immigrant, a child of Holocaust survivors, and a veterinarian, became the head of one of the world’s largest corporations and initiated a dramatic transformation of the organization just before a global health crisis would serve to test the organization, its scientists, and its leader, like never before. Moonshot describes best practices that can be used to address the multiple, unprecedented challenges our world faces, reveals Pfizer’s implementation of scientific breakthroughs at a record-breaking pace, and offers leadership lessons that can help anyone successfully manage their own seemingly unsolvable problems. As Dr. Bourla explains, “I am sharing the story of our moonshot—the challenges we faced, the lessons we learned, and the core values that allowed us to make it happen—in hopes that it might inspire and inform your own moonshot, whatever that may be.”   
  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
