Equation of Doom by Gerald Vance audiobook.

Genre: thriller

A world weary space pilot on the lam from earth for crimes unspecified; the most beautiful (earthly) tri-D woman in the universe who is determined to be the most powerful too; a planet of crafty and unscrupulous giant frogs intent on kicking out all aliens; and finally beings who live outside of time. Mix them all together and some very interesting things happen. Very interesting. And disastrous. But there's more! Why did 3000 worlds across the galaxy suddenly blossom almost simultaneously with very similar life and intelligence? Could there have been a common ancestor? Well, give or take a million years, simultaneously. The answer to all these questions is in this story. Listen and find out what happens in Equation of Doom.

Stoicism by George Stock audiobook.

Genre: philosophy

This short book is part of the Philosophies Ancient and Modern series, which attempts to make Western philosophy more accessible to the general public.

In this volume, George Stock provides a concise primer on Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that maintained that the universe is governed entirely by fate, and that humans can achieve happiness only by cultivating a calm acceptance of the vicissitudes of life. Among the Stoics of the Greek and Roman world were its founder, Zeno, the former slave Epictetus, and the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. George Stock discusses not only the Stoic ethics, but also less well-known aspects of Stoicism, such as its division of the branches of philosophy, its account of logic, and its natural philosophy.

Orthodoxy by Gilbert K. Chesterton ~ Full Audiobook [religion]

Orthodoxy by Gilbert K. Chesterton audiobook.

Genre: religion

In Orthodoxy, G. K. Chesterton sets out to explain how he arrived at Christian belief, not through inherited convention, but through a hard-won sense that the world is both stranger and more meaningful than modern cynicism allows. Framed as a personal intellectual adventure, the book follows Chesterton as he tests the fashionable ideas of his age - skepticism, materialism, and self-made philosophies - and finds them unable to account for everyday experience: joy and duty, wonder and reason, sin and virtue, freedom and constraint. With wit, paradox, and vivid imagery, he argues that Christian orthodoxy is not a dull set of rules but a daring balance of opposites that protects the color and sanity of life. Along the way he reflects on imagination, humility, morality, and the peril of making the self the measure of truth. Both a defense of faith and a critique of modern assumptions, Orthodoxy invites listeners to reconsider what seems obvious, and to see belief as a living, dynamic response to the real world.
