Historia
The American public's introduction to nuclear technology was manifested in destruction and death. With Hiroshima and the Cold War still ringing in our ears, our perception of all things nuclear is seen through the lens of weapons development. Nuclear power is full of mind-bending theories, deep secrets, and the misdirection of public consciousness - some deliberate, some accidental. The result of this fixation on bombs and fallout is that the development of a non-polluting, renewable energy source stands frozen in time.

best book I have listened too in long time
Revisado: 11-01-24
The book is broken down into three areas. First the discovery of nuclear/ atomic matter. Then the war effort into research and development of the bomb. And then post war and the crazy discovery of atomic energy. The book has a lot of dry humor and is interesting. I would definitely recommend it.

Historia
The Wheel of Time turns and Ages come and go, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth returns again. In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy, the World and Time themselves hang in the balance. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow.

typical sfi
Revisado: 09-08-22
The assumption of the book is on a premise that aliens behave like humans are violent angry and will dominate the planet they arrive at the 2nd assumption which is bizarre is that these aliens will Is flourish in the new world. Not likely due to the fact that they didn't grow in up in this world And their biology would be significantly different.

without a map it hard to follow events. pretty detailed and a better summary of tactics would be helpful.

Historia
Ishmael, the narrator, tells of the adventures of Captain Ahab in his relentless quest to seek revenge on the white whale that bit off his leg. Full of allegory and symbolism, Moby Dick is an epic tragedy of tremendous dramatic power and narrative drive. This large-scale adaptation, recorded in America, skilfully reproduces the unique mixture of adventure, myth, history, and philosophy in Melville's epic tale.

Wow! The Best History Course I've Listened To
- De chris en 07-21-15
it is history but we'll told.
Revisado: 03-24-22
you get a sense of more than just the battles but the Times the politics and the impact. Not generally a big fan of history books or textbooks but I would listen to this one again I would recommend it. If I hit were to give a suggestion it would be to get a map of the area to better understand some of the text material.
