  What if your peace of mind was the highest form of wisdom? 
  In Charmides, Plato presents a timeless dialogue that gently peels back the layers of self-control, modesty, and knowledge. Socrates engages the charming and reflective youth Charmides in a quest to define “temperance”—a word that touches everything from our moral compass to our emotional balance. 
  Through careful questions and subtle insights, this modern audiobook brings to life a powerful but often overlooked dialogue—one that asks whether the truest form of strength lies in knowing, and governing, oneself. 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  •	A subtle but profound inquiry into temperance, modesty, and inner harmony 
  •	Socratic questioning at its most reflective, unraveling assumptions with grace 
  •	A fresh look at the link between virtue and knowledge 
  •	A translation that retains the poetic charm and intellectual clarity of the original 
  Whether you’re seeking calm in a chaotic world or pondering the nature of self-discipline, Charmides is a philosophical mirror worth holding up to the soul.

  Disclaimer: This is not the official book, but a summary & it does not accompany the official. 
  Architect Daniel H. Burnham faces the mammoth task of constructing the fairground, a utopian city which would come to be known as "The White City." His vision of grandeur, innovation, and beauty aims to surpass the Parisian Eiffel Tower and establish America's cultural ascendancy in the world. Through herculean efforts, Burnham coordinates a vast number of workers, battling time constraints, tragedy, and countless other hurdles to turn his dream into reality. 
  In contrast, lurking in the shadows of this shimmering facade, Dr. H. H. Holmes utilizes the fair's attractions to lure victims into his specially constructed "Murder Castle," a horrifying structure equipped with secret passageways, gas chambers, and a crematorium. His charming demeanor and ruthless intelligence facilitate a series of grim murders, marking him as one of America's first recorded serial killers. 
  As you journey through our summary, explore the dual narratives that paint a vivid picture of the time period, encapsulating the heights of human achievement and the dark underbelly of its sins. Larson's meticulous research and mesmerizing storytelling breathe life into a bygone era, delving into the minds of the men who shaped it — one with a vision of beauty, the other with a vision of horror. 
  Witness the transformative period in American history, where unprecedented feats of ingenuity stood side by side with unimaginable cruelty. "The Devil in the White City" unveils the thin line between genius and madness, progress and destruction, that defines humanity.

  If you could have a dinner party with anyone dead or alive, who would it be? 
   
   
   
  That's the question film critic and food writer Alissa Wilkinson answered as she gathered a hypothetical table of women who challenged norms and defied conventional wisdom. 
   
   
   
  Ella Baker, Alice B. Toklas, Hannah Arendt, Octavia Butler, Agnes Varda, Elizabeth David, Edna Lewis, Maya Angelou, Laurie Colwin: these smart, engaging, revolutionary, and creative twentieth-century women were all profoundly influenced by their own relationships to food, drink, and other elements of sustenance. 
   
   
   
  In Salty, Wilkinson explores the ways food managed to root these women into their various callings. For some, it was cultivating perseverance in the face of hardship. For others, it was nurturing a freedom to act, even in the face of opposition, toward justice and equality. For others, it was an examination of what it means to be human with all its desire, heartbreak, sacrifice, isolation, and liberty. 
   
   
   
  Salty is Alissa Wilkinson's invitation to you. Join these sharp, empowered, and often subversive women and discover how to live with courage, agency, grace, smarts, snark, saltiness, and sometimes feasting—even in uncertain times.

  The World’s Youngest Criminal...

  The concept of a "criminal genius" is fraught with paradoxes. On one hand, it invokes admiration for the ingenuity behind complex scams and heists, while on the other, it raises questions about morality, ethics, and the law. McCrudden’s story is one of talent gone awry, where a sharp intellect that could have achieved greatness in legitimate fields was instead channeled into subversive and illegal activities. His life forces us to grapple with uncomfortable truths about how society sometimes rewards intelligence in the wrong contexts. 
  McCrudden’s journey into the criminal world did not stem from a single, defining moment, but rather from a confluence of circumstances: a difficult childhood, an aptitude for manipulation, and a deep desire to escape the confines of a mundane life. These factors combined to shape a young person capable of thinking several steps ahead, using his intellect to outwit those around him. Yet, as McCrudden’s schemes grew more ambitious, so did the risks, and soon he found himself at the center of investigations by law enforcement agencies that had never before encountered a juvenile mastermind of his caliber.
