  This audiobook narrated by Jennifer Woodward provides the first comprehensive account of menopause from prehistory to today
  
  Are the ways we look at menopause all wrong? Historian Susan Mattern says yes, and The Slow Moon Climbs reveals just how wrong we have been. Taking readers from the rainforests of Paraguay to the streets of Tokyo, Mattern draws on historical, scientific, and cultural research to reveal how our perceptions of menopause developed from prehistory to today. For most of human history, people had no word for menopause and did not view it as a medical condition. Rather, in traditional foraging and agrarian societies, it was a transition to another important life stage. This book, then, introduces new ways of understanding life beyond fertility.
  
  Mattern examines the fascinating "Grandmother Hypothesis"—which argues for the importance of elders in the rearing of future generations—as well as other evolutionary theories that have generated surprising insights about menopause and the place of older people in society. She looks at agricultural communities where households relied on postreproductive women for the family's survival. And she explores the emergence of menopause as a medical condition in the Western world. It was only around 1700 that people began to see menopause as a dangerous pathological disorder linked to upsetting symptoms that rendered women weak and vulnerable. Mattern argues that menopause was another syndrome, like hysterical suffocation or melancholia, that emerged or reemerged in early modern Europe in tandem with the rise of a professional medical class.
  The Slow Moon Climbs casts menopause, at last, in the positive light it deserves—not only as an essential life stage, but also as a key factor in the history of human flourishing.

  John Muir (1838–1914) was one of the first modern preservationists. His letters, essays, and books telling of his adventures in nature, and wildlife, especially in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California, were read by millions and are still popular today. His direct activism helped to save the Yosemite Valley and other wilderness areas. The Sierra Club, which he founded, is now one of the most important conservation organizations in the United States. His writings and philosophy strongly influenced the formation of the modern environmental movement. (Summary from Wikipedia)

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  What if your thoughts could send a text, learn a language, or relive a memory in perfect detail—all without lifting a finger? 
  Neuralink Decoded is a mind-expanding journey into the next era of human evolution, where science fiction meets real-world innovation. Written in Samantha Blake’s signature style—clear, compelling, and emotionally gripping—this book takes readers beyond the headlines and hype to explore how brain-computer interfaces are reshaping medicine, identity, work, and the future of the human race. 
  This isn’t just about Elon Musk or a coin-sized chip. It’s about what comes after. What happens when the brain becomes programmable? When your mind can connect directly to the internet—or to another human? 
  From the early roots of Neuralink’s experimental technology to the awe-inspiring possibilities of enhanced cognition, digital telepathy, and memory backups, this book offers a front-row seat to a revolution that will challenge everything we know about thought, privacy, and being alive. 
  Through human stories, real science, and bold predictions, Neuralink Decoded explores how this breakthrough could help the paralyzed walk again, treat disorders like Parkinson’s and depression, and eventually allow us to transcend biology altogether. But it also wrestles with the big questions: Who owns your thoughts? Can consciousness be hacked? And what does it mean to stay human in a world where machines may understand your mind better than you do? 
  Whether you're a curious reader, a tech enthusiast, or someone wondering how to prepare for a future that’s arriving faster than expected, this book is your roadmap. 
  This is not just the story of a chip. It’s the story of us—and what we’re about to become.

  A new, researched-based look at how traditional or smaller companies can better compete with Big Tech on their own terms 
   
   
   
  Companies are fighting the wrong battle. The consensus has been to learn the best practices from Big Tech and imitate them. But new paths for growth aren't created by imitation; they're forged by radical differentiation. 
   
   
   
  In Smart Rivals, Harvard Business School professor Feng Zhu and former Bloomberg journalist Bonnie Cao show business leaders how to create new competitive advantages by offering product features and benefits that tech giants and other competitors cannot match. 
   
   
   
  Zhu and Cao bring listeners across the globe, revealing how big conglomerates—Coca-Cola, Ping An, and AB InBev—and scrappy upstarts—an Italian toll payment platform, a Chinese footwear retailer, a Nigerian media company, and scores of others—have managed to thrive by tapping into their unique capabilities. 
   
   
   
  Based on original research and insights gleaned from leaders in a wide-range of industries, Smart Rivals will help you find new capabilities that mere imitation could never provide and lead to new products, services, strategies, and advantages.
