Free Download Mind Thief: The Story of Alzheimer's (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B091MX32ZC | 2021 | 8 hours and 44 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 441 MB
Author: Han Yu
Narrator: Cassandra Campbell
Alzheimer's disease, a haunting and harrowing ailment, is one of the world's most common causes of death. Alzheimer's lingers for years, with patients' outward appearance unaffected while their cognitive functions fade away. Patients lose the ability to work and live independently, to remember and recognize. There is still no proven way to treat Alzheimer's because its causes remain unknown. Mind Thief is a comprehensive and engaging history of Alzheimer's that demystifies efforts to understand the disease. Beginning with the discovery of "presenile dementia" in the early 20th century, Han Yu examines over a century of research and controversy.

Free Download March to the Majority: The Real Story of the Republican Revolution (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BJ13VP8G | 2023 | 7 hours and 15 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 209 MB
Author: Newt Gingrich
Narrator: Newt Gingrich, Brian Troxell, Fleet Cooper
In March to the Majority, New York Times bestselling author Newt Gingrich takes listeners behind the scenes of the Republican Revolution in 1994 and the rise of the modern GOP. The story of Gingrich's rise from college professor, to architect of the Contract with America, to Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives is historic. There were many adventures, personalities, missteps, and victories on the road from a seemingly permanent House GOP minority to the first Republican majority in 40 years. These untold stories and inspiring lessons about the rise of modern conservatism are immensely relevant today as the United States faces profound and extraordinary challenges. Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich joins with former National Republican Congressional Committee Executive Director Joe Gaylord to bring alive the stories, events, and activities that led to the Contract with America and the first re-elected Republican majority since 1928. No two people are better positioned to tell this story than Gingrich and Gaylord. They were there, and they got it done. March to the Majority is not only about the past, but also about the challenges our nation faces today and offers principles for governing the American people.

Free Download Map Addict: A Bestselling Tale of An Obssession Completely Updated (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B831Z8PD | 2023 | 13 hours and 5 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 376 MB
Author: Mike Parker
Narrator: Mike Parker
'My name is Mike and I am a map addict. There, it's said...' Maps not only show the world, they help it turn. On an average day, we will consult some form of map approximately a dozen times, often without even noticing: checking the A-Z, the road atlas or the Sat Nav, scanning the tube or bus map, a quick Google online or hours wasted flying over a virtual Earth, navigating a way around a shopping centre, watching the weather forecast, planning a walk or a trip, catching up on the news, booking a holiday or hotel. Maps pepper logos, advertisements, illustrations, books, web pages and newspaper and magazine articles: they are a cipher for every area of human existence. At a stroke, they convey precise information about topography, layout, history, politics and power. They are the unsung heroes of life: Map Addict sings their song.

Free Download Mao's Army Goes to Sea: The Island Campaigns and the Founding of China's Navy (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C5B8W2CT | 2023 | 7 hours and 6 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 386 MB
Author: Toshi Yoshihara
Narrator: Catherine Ho
From 1949 to 1950, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) made crucial decisions to establish a navy and secure China's periphery. The civil war had been fought with a peasant army, yet in order to capture key offshore islands from the Nationalist rival, Mao Zedong needed to develop maritime capabilities. Mao's Army Goes to Sea is a ground-breaking history of the founding of the Chinese navy and Communist China's earliest island-seizing campaigns. In this definitive account of a critical moment in China's naval history, Toshi Yoshihara shows that Chinese leaders refashioned the stratagems and tactics honed over decades of revolutionary struggle on land for nautical purposes.

English | ASIN: B0BHXL443C | 2023 | 7 hours and 27 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 214 MB
Author: Anna Lekas Miller
Narrator: Anna Lekas Miller
With deep empathy, rigorous reporting, and the irresistible perspective of a true romantic, journalist Anna Lekas Miller spotlights couples around the world who confront frustrating immigration systems to be together-as she did to be with her husband. We are told that love conquers all, but what happens when you don't have the right passport? Love Across Borders takes listeners through contentious frontiers around the world, from Turkey to Iraq, Syria to Greece, Mexico to the United States, to reveal the wide-spread prejudicial laws intent on dividing us. Lekas Miller tells her own gripping story of meeting Salem Rizk, in Istanbul, where they were both reporting on the Syrian civil war. But when Turkey started cracking down on refugees, Salem, who is Syrian, wasn't allowed to stay there, nor could he safely return to Syria. He was a man without a country. So Lekas Miller had to decide her next move: she had an American passport but deep personal ties to the Middle East, and she knew it was unfair that Salem couldn't travel freely the way she could.

Free Download Land of War: A History of European Warfare from Achilles to Putin (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C5S3WYR1 | 2023 | 23 hours and 15 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 671 MB
Author: William Nester
Narrator: David Colacci
War in Europe began with the first human migrants. Rival bands fought for thousands of years before the Greeks and Romans began writing about their military history, first as legend-for instance, the hero Achilles battling the Trojans-and then as fact. Finally, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, technology exploded: railroads, steamships, telegraphs, machine guns, automobiles, airplanes, and tanks enabled European states to muster, equip, arm, transport, and command more men than ever before, with more firepower than ever before.
