Brain and Heart - The Triumphs...

David I. Sandberg M.D., Arianna...

Dr. David Sandberg, an internationally renown pediatric neurosurgeon, combines his deep scientific and medical knowledge with raw emotion and unforgettably powerful stories of courage and love. The brain is the most complicated and perplexing of our organs, and it is also the one that makes us human. When it comes to a child's brain, the hearts of those who love them become inextricably linked to that story. 
 
 
 
In Brain and Heart, Dr. Sandberg describes the joy, heartbreak, uncertainty, and physical and emotional challenges that come with performing brain surgery on children. While most medical memoirs focus largely on the patient perspective, Dr. Sandberg allows listeners access to his private thoughts when making agonizing decisions. 
 
 
 
A father himself, Dr. Sandberg understands deeply how every one of his patients is an entire world, and his devotion to his patients and his work shines through. We follow him as he finds his way to neurosurgery as a young doctor through to his most heartbreaking cases and greatest triumphs. We also travel with him to underserved countries, where lifesaving surgeries that are common here are almost nonexistent, and Dr. Sandberg shares the stories of the dedicated doctors and surgeons trying to enact change. Brain and Heart is an unforgettable book that will strengthen our sense of compassion and hope.

The Art of Shralpinism - Lessons...

Jeremy Jones

Not a technical guide on snowboarding but, rather, a very personal approach to how to think about mountains, snow, and adventure, The Art of Shralpinism reflects the remarkable journey of snowboarding superstar Jeremy Jones. Drawing on the hundreds of journals he has kept over the years, Jones offers intriguing snapshots of time and place that include his own on-the-slope stories and white-out moments, as well as those of other prominent adventurers such as Jimmy Chin, Zahan Billimoria, and Christina Lusti. 
 
 
 
Shralpinism is a compendium of lessons hard won: quick tips, sound advice, and impactful stories. Learn which aspects of avalanche training are most crucial to absorb, ways to anticipate slope behavior or recognize clean lines, how to cut a cornice or develop safety protocols, how to build a fitness routine, the art of the turn, and keys to developing terrain and skills progression. Jones discusses the importance of mentors, the necessity and intensity of practice, the nature of risk, and the shape of failure. 
 
 
 
But at its heart, The Art of Shralpinism revels in the power of experience, the impact of stoke, and the beauty that underscores all outdoor adventure.

Quantum Bullsh*t - How to Ruin...

Chris Ferrie

Science is so f*cking rad. We don't deserve it. 
 
 
 
What actually is quantum physics? If you can answer that questions without bullsh*tting the person standing next to you in the bookstore, you can stop listening right now. But although most of us don't actually understand quantum physics, and if we understood it we'd probably be rich and beautiful and happy, right? After all, there are plenty of people out there trying to sell you quantum crystals to align your quantum energy with your quantum destiny. Can they all be wrong? 
 
 
 
Spoiler: yes. Yes, they can. There is no such thing as quantum crystals. Sorry! 
 
 
 
Luckily, as pseudo-science takes over the internet and it's getting harder and harder to separate alternative facts from real science, Chris Ferrie (an actual quantum physicist!) is here to explain quantum physics in a way that makes sense, so you can see the hucksters and bullsh*tters coming from a mile away—and school them in what quantum entanglement actually is (it has nothing to do with your romantic life). If you f*cking love science and want to be slightly less dumb than you were when you woke up this morning, Quantum Bullsh*t is the truly out-of-this-world book for you.

Vibe Coding for Beginners - A...

Elnaz Sarraf

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Coding no longer has to feel intimidating, overwhelming, or technical. A new way of building software is emerging, one that focuses on flow, creativity, and intuition instead of syntax, memorization, and complexity. That approach is called vibe coding.

Vibe Coding for Beginners is a practical introduction to building apps, automations, and AI-powered projects without a traditional coding background. This book is designed for absolute beginners, creatives, founders, and non-technical builders who want to create real things with code without getting stuck in tutorials, frameworks, or developer jargon.

Instead of teaching you how to think like a programmer, this guide teaches you how to think like a builder. You learn how to use modern AI tools, no-code and low-code platforms, and prompt-driven development to bring ideas to life quickly and confidently.

Inside this book, you will learn how to:

Understand what vibe coding is and why it works for beginners
Build apps and tools without learning complex syntax
Use AI to generate, explain, and improve code
Turn ideas into working projects using prompts and intuition
Build automations that save time and reduce manual work
Create simple web apps, tools, and workflows
Debug and improve projects without technical stress
Learn coding concepts naturally through building
Stay in flow instead of getting stuck or overwhelmed
Build confidence as a non-technical creator
This book focuses on momentum, creativity, and learning by doing. You are guided through real examples and practical projects that help you understand how modern coding actually works in the real world. Instead of perfection, the goal is progress. Instead of rules, the focus is experimentation.

Vibe Coding for Beginners is perfect for people who have always wanted to build but have been blocked by fear, complexity, or the belief that coding isn't for them.
