    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    What if consciousness is not something we have — but something reality is made of? 
    Ultimate Mind Theory begins with a single, undeniable truth: I am conscious. From that starting point, this book constructs a layered system of logic that reaches far beyond personal insight — into the architecture of existence itself. 
    This is not a spiritual belief or philosophical guess. 
     It is a theory — complete with structure, stages, and internal checks — that dares to ask: 
    What are the 7 irreducible facts of conscious experience? 
    What laws must follow from being aware at all? 
    Why do pain, desire, and emotion obey patterns — and what are they trying to resolve? 
    Could our personal struggles reflect a much older story — one built into the nature of reality? 
    Combining deep logic with emotional clarity, Ultimate Mind Theory offers a radical yet grounded map of existence. It reinterprets karma, suffering, evolution, and the very shape of the self — not through mysticism, but through coherent, testable reasoning. 
    For those discontent with shallow answers and hungry for meaning that holds up under pressure, this book offers a challenge: 
    Start with what you know. Follow it to where you never expected.

    Primordial American Terrorists is a new interpretation of events leading to the end of legalized slavery in the United States. Along the way, it reveals the duality of the terrorist persona, a profile the author pioneered in his earlier book, Sofia Perovskaya, Terrorist Princess. It tells the story, not only of terrorists who struck savagely out of intense passion for a cause, but also of their direct comparison with equally passionate men and women who dedicated themselves to social justice through advocacy and other non-violent methods.

    This audiobook is an altered version of the Master’s thesis Lean Production Scale-up. How a startup can scale the manufacturing of physical product innovation by Ilkka Taponen. Approximately half of the original thesis has been removed to suit the audiobook format. The audiobook edit has been designed for an audience familiar with startups and business, meaning that large portions of the basics have been removed from the Theory chapter.Today the market entry for new ideas and entrepreneurs is easier than ever as the digital age is reshaping how business is done. Through digitalization, the business environment has become highly open and widely connected. The combinations of digital technologies like edge computing and artificial intelligence, AI, enable new business model opportunities. In this fast-changing environment, the most important thing is to learn as fast as possible what to do next and what is worth doing at all. Multiple non-fiction books like The Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank and Lean Startup by Eric Ries study the modern internet-era startup business environment.Still, one aspect has not been included in the broader public discussion. The tools presented in Lean Startup concentrate on finding the market fit as efficiently as possible but assume that the same level of uncertainties does not exist in the company's internal processes. “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters” is a famous quote by startup investor Peter Thiel. Behind the quote is the notion that there is something different and more challenging about developing physical technologies compared to online services. Manufacturing, indeed, is an underrated problem. It is much harder to take advanced technology and bring it to volume manufacturing than to design it in the first place.

    Seeking Attention explores the essential but elusive nature of attention through a fresh lens. Drawing inspiration from Simone Weil's assertion that "attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity," this book brings attention into focus through a novel collection of short "portraits" that each examine how archetypal figures—like the detective, the fan, the therapist, the parent, and the lover—engage with attention in unique ways. 
     
     
     
    ● Accessible and Thought-Provoking: Written in an approachable style, this book offers an introduction to the growing field of attention studies, sparking new reflections on how we pay attention. 
     
     
     
    ● Diverse Archetypes: Each figure represents a different approach to attention—highlighting its blind spots, failures, and occasional triumphs—prompting listeners to reflect on their own habits. 
     
     
     
    ● A Phenomenology of Attention: Through these portraits, listeners are invited to rethink their understanding of attention, noticing how it shapes the world around them. 
     
     
     
    ● Addressing the "Industrial-Distraction Complex": Offering alternative models for true presence, Seeking Attention encourages multi-sensory awareness as a powerful counter to our age of distraction.
