  At the turn of the twentieth century, sleep began to be seen not merely as a passive state but as an active, dynamic process crucial to our understanding of consciousness and identity. In Sleep Works, cultural historian and literary scholar Sebastian P. Klinger explores the intriguing connections between scientific inquiry and literary expression during an era when sleep was both a scientific mystery and a cultural fascination. 
   
   
   
  Scientists, physicians, and pharmaceutical companies were at the forefront of this newfound fascination with sleep: some researchers distinguished sleep from related states such as fatigue and hypnosis, while others investigated sleep disorders and developed treatments for insomnia. Meanwhile, literary giants like Franz Kafka and Marcel Proust grappled with their own sleep disturbances and channeled these experiences into their writing. Through the lens of their discoveries, Klinger reveals the broader implications of sleep for concepts of selfhood and agency. 
   
   
   
  Tracing the emergence of sleep science and the cultural production of sleep through literature, Sleep Works weaves together literary analysis, historical context, and research in the archives of the pharmaceutical industry to provide a comprehensive and compelling account of how sleep has been understood, represented, and experienced in the modern era.

  Lindley's groundbreaking book tells the true story of mis- and dis-information, why we've fallen so hard for them both, and how every one of us can fight back. 
  We’re living through the post-truth years, where it can feel almost impossible to separate fact from fiction in the information that we’re fed. But is it possible to escape the opinions created by false information and fake news, spread by our closest loved ones, friends, right up to world leaders? 
  Yes. There is hope. 
  The second edition of The Future of Truth (and How to Get There) unmasks the tell-tale signs that manipulation leaves behind – even in a post-truth world. We build up an essential toolkit to stop, step back from and sidestep misinformation and disinformation wherever our timelines take us. Through neuroscience, conspiracy beliefs, journalism, politics and AI, we’ll take a journey to alt-reality and back to build a happier, healthier future of truth.

  How To Know God - The Wisdom Of...

  Here, at last, is what can only be described as a riveting compendium of unheard stories, interviews, and quotes directly from the spiritual heart of the Beatles, George Harrison. Sourced from the extensive archives of rock biographer and historian Sripad Jagannatha Dasa, here is the quiet Beatle in his own inspirational words. The innate truth, wisdom, and sincerity of Harrison shine through in this touching audio tribute to the journeyman musician, composer, dedicated bhakti yogi, and humble gardener. 
   
  Although George insisted, he was only a regular guy, there is quite a lot of evidence to the contrary. Throughout his often magical, turbulent, unlikely life, he selflessly raised millions for charity and still does via the good works of his personal charity, The Material World Foundation. He was, too, the grandfather of world music, introducing audiences to be exquisite, ethereal complexity of both Indian music and the spiritually liberating Sanskrit mantras from the 5,000-year-old Vedic scriptures. Harrison was also instrumental in turning on a global audience to ethical vegetarianism, reincarnation, Hare Krishna philosophy, meditation, and, yes, even the thoughtful careful use of psychedelics. 
   
  In this one-of-a-kind collection, there are no journalists getting in the way of the purity of George’s expansive ideas and his carefully told personal history. Here is George Harrison truly in his own words, speaking across the waters of time to generations of dedicated fans still deeply moved by this simple man’s great music, philosophical importance, and well-deserved historical significance.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  She danced for kings, seduced generals, and died before a firing squad. But was Mata Hari really the master spy history claims she was? 
  In the glittering salons of Belle Époque Europe, she was known as the most exotic dancer of her generation—a mysterious Eastern princess who captivated audiences with sacred temple dances and seduced the continent's most powerful men. But behind the jeweled veils and Oriental mystique lay Margaretha Zelle, a desperate Dutch housewife who had reinvented herself so completely that she fooled an entire civilization. 
  The woman who became Mata Hari was: 
  • A failed marriage survivor who transformed tragedy into triumph 
  • An international celebrity who moved freely between enemy capitals 
  • The lover of military officers from Germany, France, and Russia 
  • A woman caught in the deadly web of World War I espionage 
  Now, more than a century later, newly discovered evidence reveals the shocking truth...
