  A FULL CAST PERFORMANCE, FEATURING HOLLYWOOD ACTORS, SOUND EFFECTS, AND AN ORIGINAL SCORE! 
  From the authors of the New York Times bestseller, The Barefoot Spirit, and the Audie Award finalist, genre-bending audiobook of the same name, comes a story of vision and invention, failure and setbacks, mistakes and lessons. Business Audio Theatre presents a Sherwood Players Production, The Brain Savers, the true story of how a scrappy startup used technology to put the humanity of patients first and ended up changing medicine forever. 
  Amid the internet boom of the mid-2000s, a band of entrepreneurs stood at the intersection of medicine, technology, and business. They saw a solution to the crucial problems of emergency care, which was too often handicapped by underfunding, overscheduled specialists, archaic practices, and onerous equipment. Through pioneering telemedicine and new inventions like the portable CT scanner, the founders of Specialists on Call (S.O.C.) did more than just make emergency care better, faster, and more humane; they brought health care, which is often described as the slowest industry in America to change, into the 21st Century.   
  This is Dr. Colin McDonald’s story of how S.O.C. came to be. After leaving a cushy teaching position at Harvard, it took years of pursuing a single objective, then changing on a dime, to create S.O.C. In the end, what he created was a system that saved lives—and continues to save lives today. 
  Some of these hard-learned lessons are complex, while others are so timeless they almost sound cliché (“trust your vision and your moral compass, change when you must, just keep going”), but they are far from cliché for the founders of S.O.C. Theirs is a story of people with imagination and drive who wanted to make the world better, who trusted their ideas and each other, and who, despite everything, kept on going!

  Top 5 Most Notorious Mad...

  Throughout history, science has been a beacon of progress, propelling humanity toward a future once thought impossible. However, as much as scientific achievement has illuminated the path forward, it has also cast a shadow—one where the pursuit of knowledge and power has led to some of the most disturbing and infamous endeavors. The "mad scientist" archetype has captivated popular imagination for centuries, blending genius with madness in a way that explores the fine line between brilliance and obsession. While these figures may seem extreme, the complexities of their lives and work reflect deeper questions about the nature of discovery, ethics, and human ambition. 
    
  The concept of the mad scientist is not merely the product of fictional tales; it stems from the real stories of individuals whose obsessions with pushing scientific boundaries led them down dark, often dangerous paths. These figures were driven by an unyielding desire to unravel the mysteries of nature, sometimes at the cost of human life, moral integrity, and societal norms. They exemplify how the quest for knowledge, unmoored from ethical considerations, can easily slip into unethical practices. The line between innovation and madness is often blurred when the desire for progress supersedes compassion, respect, and accountability. 
    
  This book examines five of the most notorious individuals whose scientific endeavors left indelible marks on history, not for their contributions to the betterment of mankind, but for their reckless or ethically questionable experiments. These men, although different in time, place, and method, shared an obsession with achieving greatness—regardless of the personal or moral cost. Their stories reveal the dual-edged sword of scientific curiosity, showing that what is hailed as genius in one moment can be viewed as madness in another.

  Glacial - The Inside Story of...

  From mavericks to party standard-bearers, United States Senators, members of the House of Representatives, and presidential candidates have campaigned for four decades espousing their intentions to address the impacts of climate change. 
   
   
   
  Glacial: The Inside Story of Climate Politics is the first Inside-the-Beltway account to lay bare the machinations of what went wrong in Washington—how and why our leaders failed to act on climate change as mounting scientific evidence underscored the urgency to do so. Glacial tells a story of behind-the-scenes infighting and power struggles that blocked or derailed federal legislative progress on climate change, even in times of bipartisanship and with polls showing most Americans favored action. 
   
   
   
  The good news today is that public opinion is at its highest level of support for climate action, from corporate boardrooms embracing sustainability for business reasons to movements led by passionate younger generations who can't afford to stand mute because it is they who will inherit the worst environmental catastrophes. If the missed opportunities in Washington are instructive, the path to doing so is clear. Our elected officials must use their offices not solely for the power and prestige it bestows upon them personally, but for the public good—and they must do so while there is still time.
