    Eclipse: A Song Called Youth, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 880min
    2039: The Russians didn't use the big nukes. The ongoing Third World War has left parts of Europe in ruins. Into the chaos steps the Second Alliance, a multinational eager to impose its own kind of New World Order. In the United States - in FirStep, the vast space colony and on the artificial island Freezone - the SA shoulders its way to power, spinning a dark web of media manipulation, propaganda, and infiltration. Only the New Resistance recognizes the SA for what it really is: a racist theocracy hiding a cult of eugenics. Enter Rick Rickenharp, a former rock'n'roll cult hero: a rock classicist out of place in Europe’s underground club scene, populated by wiredancers and minimonos - but destined to play a Song Called Youth that will shake the world. ungekürzt.

    ISE Buildings Across Time: An Introduction to World Architecture
    Buildings Across Time brilliantly explores the essential attributes of architecture by uniquely combining both a detailed survey of Western architecture, including Pre-Columbian America, and an introduction to architecture from the Middle East, India, Russia, China, and Japan. Authors have searched out the stories these buildings have to tell, considered the intentions of the people who built them, and examined the lives of those who used them. The text contains extensive descriptive narrative leavened with focused critical analysis, which both allows the book to stand alone and invites lecturers to impose their studied interpretations on the material without the danger of undue ambiguity or conflict. In a world that grows smaller by the day, it presents a global perspective, and in a discipline that concerns built objects that are often beautiful as well as functional, it is copiously illustrated, intelligently designed, and consistently usable.

    Speakable and Unspeakable in Quantum Mechanics
    John Bell, FRS was one of the leading expositors and interpreters of modern quantum theory. He is particularly famous for his discovery of the crucial difference between the predictions of conventional quantum mechanics and the implications of local causality, a concept insisted on by Einstein. John Bell's work played a major role in the development of our current understanding of the profound nature of quantum concepts and of the fundamental limitations they impose on the applicability of the classical ideas of space, time and locality. This book includes all of John Bell's published and unpublished papers on the conceptual and philosophical problems of quantum mechanics, including two papers that appeared after the first edition was published. The book includes a short Preface written by the author for the first edition, and also an introduction by Alain Aspect that puts into context John Bell's enormous contribution to the quantum philosophy debate.

    The Truelove
    A British whaler has been captured by an ambitious chief in the Sandwich Islands at French instigation, and Captain Jack Aubrey is dispatched with the Surprise to restore order. But stowed away in the cable-tier is an escaped female convict. To the officers, Clarissa Harvill is an object of awkward courtliness and dangerous jealousies. Aubrey himself is won over and indeed strongly attracted to this woman who will not speak of her past. But only Aubrey's friend, Dr. Stephen Maturin, can fathom Harvill's secrets: her crime, her personality, and a clue identifying a highly-placed English spy in the pay of Napoleon's intelligence service. In a thrilling finale, Patrick O'Brian delivers all the excitement his many readers expect: Aubrey and the crew of the Surprise impose a brutal pax Britannica upon the islanders in a pitched battle against a band of headhunting cannibals.

    Liberty Under the Law , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 3min
    Liberty Under the Law is a 1920 speech by Sen. Warren G. Harding, Republican candidate for president. Speaking about the rights of American citizens, Warren said the responsibility of government is to guard and sustain those liberties. Violence and terrorism were prominent in America and Europe after World War I. In Russia, the Bolshevik closure of the democratic Constituent Assembly, the signing of the peace treaty with Germany, the massacre of the Imperial family, attacks on churches, and the Red Terror shocked the western world. Against this background, Sen. Harding stated that democracy was the future of government and that the rights of freedom impose the obligations which maintain it. He also speaks of his approval of collective bargaining in labor/management relations, while emphasizing the right of every American to seek employment without being forced to accept the conditions of any trade union. ungekürzt.

    I take what I want, and what I want is Chloe....I have always been the wild child. Love putting my life on the wire just for fun. When a business deal takes me to buy a piece of land in the middle of nowhere, I thought that I would impose my will...business as usual. Then I saw her for the first time. Hot with a fiery personality to match. I wanted her the moment I saw her. Tanned skin, sun-kissed lips, legs that wouldn’t quit. Billionaires don’t ask permission, they just take. And I wanted to take Chloe...all night long. But she challenged me in a way no woman ever has. So much that I wanted to protect her. I will do everything to keep her safe. Even if that means risking everything to protect her land. Especially now that we have an unborn child.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Maxx Pinkins.

    The Constitution of Government in Galt's Gulch , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 397min
    A comparison of utopian fiction presented in Atlas Shrugged and the actual experience of living in a private community beyond the reach of government. It examines theory and practical real-world aspects of liberty, property, constitutional law, and national security in the context of a fully free society. It presents a novel proposal to fund national security by private enterprise that does not rely upon (and has no legal right to impose) taxes. Extensive discussion of property as a moral office of responsibility to advance the general welfare by offering employment. The book is addressed to objectivists and libertarians, and it offers a new theory of value and virtue that considers individual character, personal ambition, and risk of change. Discussion of constitutional law includes loyalties beyond the law, fundamental rights, due process, and persistent presumption of innocence. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: R. K. Meier.
