Why do "Great Books" continue to speak to us hundreds and even thousands of years after they were written? Can they deepen our self-knowledge and wisdom? Are our lives changed in any meaningful way by the experience of reading them?Tackle these questions and more in these 36 engaging lectures. Beginning with his definition of a Great Book as one that possesses a great theme of enduring importance, noble language that "elevates the soul and ennobles the mind," and a universality that enables it to "speak across the ages," Professor Fears examines a body of work that offers extraordinary wisdom to those willing to receive it.

Revisado: 06-18-20
Imagine cliff notes for the worlds greatest books in audio format narrated by a captivating and jovial college professor over a glass of wine. This embodies exactly that. Super enjoyable listen, great perspective shifting analysis of great books and a taste of books to add to my reading list. Well worth the listen.

A Clear and Refreshing Approach To Relationships
Revisado: 10-23-17
Besides the fact that Steve's voice and narration are incredible engaging and entertaining, the content is gold. Steve takes a very unique, yet simple approach to building genuine connection with the the people who touch his life, be it clients, friends, family and employees. He is brutally honest about the obsession with social media and rather loves to use the old fashion approach; handwriting, small thought provoking gifts and personal attention. In a day and age where faceless communication dominates, Steve gives real practical and useful advice. One of the memorable bits of wisdom is his chug test. This test helps define if one should keep or drop a relationship. If you wouldn't chug a beer with that person, it's probably time to drop that relationship. Conversely, build relationships with people you would want to chug a beer with. Simple, yet thought provoking and wise. This audio book is a short listen and a worthwhile one at that. If you are looking to improve your personal relationships, or just want some insight into the man who can make it happen, this is a recommended listen.
