Historia
In this irreverent and illuminating audiobook, acclaimed writer and scientist Leonard Mlodinow shows us how randomness, chance, and probability reveal a tremendous amount about our daily lives, and how we misunderstand the significance of everything from a casual conversation to a major financial setback. As a result, successes and failures in life are often attributed to clear and obvious causes, when in actuality they are more profoundly influenced by chance.

Better as a physical book
Revisado: 05-11-19
It was good. But imagine taking a math class with no textbook or blackboard. Get the physical book.

Historia
We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn't be this way. There is a formula for success that's been followed by the icons of history - from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs - a formula that let them turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they found the astounding triumphs we all seek.

Good lessons with short stories
Revisado: 05-04-19
Good book and similar to Robert Greene but with much shorter stories. The interview at the end with a Tim Ferriss is good but Tim takes forever to get many of his questions out and he spends a ton of time talking about himself.

Good, but some issues
Revisado: 05-03-18
Tired of all the F bombs that appear in millennial books
He says don’t smoke, but you can chew your tobacco. So you swap lung cancer for oral cancer?
Cold water diluted stomach acid? Temperature has nothing to do with that. If anything cold liquid would make you burn calories to warm up
I like that this book covered a lot of topics. Most of the material was decent.

What does everyone in the modern world need to know? Renowned psychologist Jordan B. Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge scientific research. Humorous, surprising, and informative, Dr. Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys and girls must be left alone, what terrible fate awaits those who criticize too easily, and why you should always pet a cat when you meet one on the street.

Some good, but A LOT of rambling.
Revisado: 04-08-18
Some of the stories were interesting even the numerous bible stories. However, I had trouble remembering what the topics were as the stories just droned on. I think the word “simultaneous” was the most used word in the book. Pronounced like sim ultanious.

Russian leaders are mobsters
Revisado: 03-30-18
The narrator did a great job. Accents were spot on. The book starts with value investing that leads to taking on white collar Russian business leader crime to Putin and his thugs stealing and killing people.

Historia
The “Prey” novels by Pulitzer prize-winning journalist John Sandford consistently make the best-seller lists, but they are not for the faint of heart. Featuring Minneapolis Lieutenant Lucas Davenport, these thrillers are raw, graphic, and impossible to put down. In Eyes of Prey, a depressed and unfocused Davenport takes on a macabre case, tracking down a serial killer who maims the eyes of his victims after he has murdered them.

This was entertaining and educational. Concepts talked about in this book appear to be followed by Amazon to a large degree. Very few business books get a laugh out of me, but this book had a few stories that made me crack up. Anyone in business would benefit from this book.

From the horseback days of the Old West through the gangster days of the 1930s, Hamer stood on the front lines of some of the most important and exciting periods in American history. He participated in the Bandit War of 1915, survived the climactic gunfight in the last blood feud of the Old West, battled the Mexican Revolution's spillover across the border, protected African Americans from lynch mobs and the Ku Klux Klan, and ran down gangsters, bootleggers, and Communists.

Historia
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.
