Sinossi

"Space Colonization Wars" explores the potential for terrestrial geopolitical conflicts to extend into space, focusing on lunar bases, Mars settlements, and asteroid resources. It posits that without international cooperation and regulatory frameworks, the drive to colonize and exploit space could mirror Earth's history of colonialism and resource competition. The book highlights how current space law inadequacies and the absence of a strong global governance structure could incentivize aggressive pursuit of national and corporate interests, escalating the risk of confrontation.

 
The book examines historical precedents of territorial expansion and resource acquisition to predict potential conflict scenarios in space. It analyzes the technological capabilities and strategic motivations of major players like the United States, China, Russia, and private companies, while also delving into potential flashpoints such as the Moon, Mars, and asteroids. By applying established geopolitical theories to space, "Space Colonization Wars" offers a valuable assessment of potential conflicts and proposes strategies for conflict prevention.

 
The book progresses by first outlining current space exploration efforts, then analyzing potential conflict triggers, and finally examining the legal and ethical implications of space colonization.

Results - Getting Beyond...

Charlie Baker, Steve Kadish

Governor Charlie Baker, one of the most popular governors in the United States, with a reputation for getting things done, wants to put the service back into public service: "Wedge issues may be great for making headlines," he writes, "but they do not move us forward. Success is measured by what we accomplish together. Our obligation to the people we serve is too important to place politics and partisanship before progress and results." 
 
 
 
For the Governor and his longtime associate Steve Kadish, these words are much more than political platitudes. They are at the heart of a method for delivering results—and getting past politics—the two developed while working together in top leadership positions in the public and private sectors. 
 
 
 
Distilled into a four-step framework, Results is the much-needed implementation guide for anyone in public service, as well as for leaders and managers in large organizations hamstrung by bureaucracy and politics. With a broad range of examples, Baker, a Republican, and Kadish, a Democrat, show how to move from identifying problems to achieving results in a way that bridges divides instead of exacerbating them. They show how government can be an engine of positive change and an example of effective operation, not just a hopeless bureaucracy.

How to be Healthy - An Ancient...

Galen

The second-century Greek physician Galen—the most famous doctor in antiquity after Hippocrates—is a central figure in Western medicine. A talented doctor, surgeon, writer, philosopher, teacher, pharmacologist, and inventor, Galen attended the court of Marcus Aurelius, living through outbreaks of plague that devastated the Roman Empire. He also served as a physician for professional gladiators. In writings that provided the foundation of Western medicine up to the nineteenth century, Galen created a unified account of health and disease. In How to Be Healthy, practicing physician and classical historian Katherine Van Schaik presents a collection of Galen's enduring insights about how we can take care of our bodies and minds, prevent disease, and reach a healthy old age. 
 
 
 
Although we now know that many of Galen's ideas about physiology are wrong, How to Be Healthy shows that much of his advice remains sound. In these selections from his writings, presented in fresh translations, Galen discusses the art of medicine, exercise and diet, the mind-body connection, the difficulty of applying general medical principles to individuals, and much more. Featuring an introduction and brief commentaries that connect ancient medical practices to modern ones, How to Be Healthy offers an entertaining and enlightening new perspective on the age-old pursuit of wellness.

Aliens on the Moon

Raphael Terra

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
 
We all wonder whether planet Earth has been visited by aliens. Millions of people around the planet have seen them. But very few people can see what is happening on our moon. It is in fact a perfect place for aliens to use as a base for visiting us. Especially because the dark side of the moon cannot be observed by us. 
 
Could it be that our secretive governments know about them? Has NASA come into contact with them? The fact is astronauts from several countries claim to have seen UFO’s on or near the moon. Even NASA astronauts have claimed in public that there was and is a government cover up. 
 
So what is the truth? Are there aliens on the moon?
