  The Nature Within Us - A Journey...

  We all live with questions that quietly shape our lives. 
  Who are we, beneath the noise of expectations and beliefs? 
   What does it really mean to be good?   
   And how do we stay gentle — with ourselves and with each other — in a world that can feel so hard and unforgiving? 
  The Nature Within Us is a reflective, deeply human exploration of love, reason, compassion, and the quiet courage it takes simply to care. Blending personal reflection, moral philosophy, psychology, and story, this book invites us to slow down and look honestly at what guides our choices — not with judgment, but with curiosity and kindness. 
  Across its chapters, we explore forgiveness, empathy, fear, harm, responsibility, and the ways we stumble — and keep trying — to do right by one another. Some chapters are tender. Some are challenging. A few may stay with you long after you finish listening. 
  This is not a book about perfection. 
   It is a book about being human — flawed, hopeful, learning, and trying again. 
  If you’ve ever wondered what truly matters, or how we can build a more compassionate life — beginning with ourselves — The Nature Within Us is an invitation to walk that path together.

  Tall tales of bushmen, bulldozers and back-country blokes 
    
  'It was the mid-1970s and I was about eight, I thought it was completely normal for your old man to pull out a high-powered deer-hunting rifle and fire it through the kitchen door from the breakfast table...' 
  In the 1970s and 80s, Barry Bellamy was a fair old bushman, traversing the back-country from Hawke's Bay to the far north in a blue ex-airforce Land Rover. His son Mike would join him as he took up work, wherever he could get it. Tough Country is Mike's story, about a bygone era of bushmen, scrub-cutters, hunters and shepherds. Later, Mike forged his own life working on the land, and his stories of the characters of the 1980s and 90s, from tradies to digger-drivers, are as hilarious as they are quintessentially Kiwi.

  The Psychology of Music - A Very...

  Music has been examined from multiple perspectives: as a product of human history, for example, or a product of human culture. But there is also a long tradition, intensified in recent decades, of thinking about music as a product of the human mind. Whether considering composition, performance, listening, or appreciation, the constraints and capabilities of the human mind play a formative role. The field that has emerged around this approach is known as the psychology of music.Written in a lively and accessible manner, this volume connects the science to larger questions about music that are of interest to practicing musicians, music therapists, musicologists, and the general public alike. For example: Why can one musical performance move an audience to tears, and another compel them to dance, clap, or snap along? How does a "hype" playlist motivate someone at the gym? And why is that top-forty song stuck in everyone's head?

  It is time to draw our lines in the sand as Christians and Conservatives by engaging in public conversations with truth and conviction. 
   
    
   
  Kira Davis has built a brand on reaching out to the other side, on giving people space to be wrong, the space to discuss, the space to tolerate. Unfortunately, the people controlling the public conversations right now will have none of it. We're seeing the lengths they will go to and the lies they let stand in service of crushing 50 percent of this nation. They seek unity through complete elimination of the other side. There are times for compromise and times to draw a line in the sand; the latter has arrived. It is time to draw our lines as Christians and Conservatives.

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  Did man rise up from the protoplasmic crud and evolve over millions of years or are his origins from within the world of the X-Files? Was planet Earth visited and populated by an ancient God-like race of super aliens who spawned a new species of servants? Are humans simply the result of biological engineering that we are now just discovering is possible? 
   
  The fact is, these ancient alien astronauts can be shown to have not only spawned mankind as a genetic species, but also to have originated our very religions and belief systems. They are the gods of ancient times. They are the holy warrior heroes in their silver chariots flying across the sky. They wielded mighty weapons of mass destruction. And now, thousands of years later we are rediscovering this truth. 
   
  We have very strong historical evidence that they came. We have thousands of stories in myths and religious texts speaking of aliens visiting Earth, creating mankind, ruling over them for millennia and even mating with them. We even know that a series of great battles ensued between the originators and their offspring. All of this gave rise to our world religions and it is in the sacred texts and historical writings that we shall discover the truth about the aliens that made us. 
   
  These alien astronauts are the very roots of humanity itself.
