How to Be Like is a "character biography" series: biographies that also draw out important lessons from the life of their subjects. In this new book - by far the most exhaustive in the series - Pat Williams tackles one of the most influential people in recent history. While many recent biographies of Walt Disney have reveled in the negative, this audiobook takes an honest but positive look at the man behind the myth. For the first time, the book pulls together all the various strands of Disney's life into one straightforward, easy-to-listen-to tale.

Great stories, good biography, too preachy.

What did you like best about How to Be Like Walt? What did you like least?
This book started out strong - good history of Walt's childhood and the evolution of the Walt Disney company. A mid-book detour praising Walt's Christianity should have been a clue, but I kept going and soon we were back to biography. But at the end, it detoured back into Walt's religion, completely going off the rails into speculation about the hidden Christian messages in his films (Snow White is eve! The poison apple is the apple of knowledge from the garden of eden!). I couldn't finish the last 30 minutes or so.
What about Paul Christy’s performance did you like?
Good delivery; I enjoyed the performance.
Did How to Be Like Walt inspire you to do anything?
Go out and find a proper history of the Walt Disney Studios and of animation as I've learned that those are the points that most interested me.

Just two months before the September 11 terrorist attacks, Dr. Judy Melinek began her training as a New York City forensic pathologist. With her husband and their toddler holding down the home front, Judy threw herself into the fascinating world of death investigation-performing autopsies, investigating death scenes, and counseling grieving relatives. Working Stiff chronicles Judy's two years of training, taking listeners behind the police tape of some of the most harrowing deaths in the Big Apple.

Great story - but not for the faint of heart!

Excellent, clinical book

I very much enjoyed listening to this book about New York City medical examiner. Medical details about autopsy are very interesting as the author interweave them with the real life reasons for death. The part at the end talking about the 911 disaster response was fascinating and helped me feel like I was paying more tribute to those lost by understanding the work needed to be done by the medical support teams. This book will keep you engaged for its duration; if you have hard time keeping yourself involved in nonfiction audiobooks this is a great one to try.

Where Flynne and her brother, Burton, live, jobs outside the drug business are rare. Fortunately, Burton has his veteran's benefits, for neural damage he suffered from implants during his time in the USMC's elite Haptic Recon force. Then one night Burton has to go out, but there's a job he's supposed to do - a job Flynne didn't know he had. Beta-testing part of a new game, he tells her.

I am not an experienced science fiction reader so it took some work to get immersed, but it was definitely worth it!
