April 25, 1986 in Chernobyl was a turning point in world history. The disaster not only changed the world’s perception of nuclear power and the science that spawned it, but also our understanding of the planet’s delicate ecology. With the images of the abandoned homes and playgrounds beyond the barbed wire of the 30-kilometer Exclusion Zone, the rusting graveyards of contaminated trucks and helicopters, the farmland lashed with black rain, the event fixed for all time the notion of radiation as an invisible killer.

Amazing Book
Revisado: 04-21-19
I am old enough to remember this disaster. However, like many in the West I only gave it passing attention at the time. The author did a great job of putting together an excellent chronology of the events leading up to the disaster, the actual events of the the day, and then the extensive aftermath via great research and interviews. I found the author's telling of the stories of the people involved to be the best aspect of the book. He put a real human face on it. The thousands of people who worked risking and often giving their lives to contain the disaster, are real heroes the world should know about.

Jean McConville's abduction was one of the most notorious episodes of the vicious conflict known as The Troubles. Everyone in the neighborhood knew the I.R.A. was responsible. But in a climate of fear and paranoia, no one would speak of it. In 2003, five years after an accord brought an uneasy peace to Northern Ireland, a set of human bones was discovered on a beach. McConville's children knew it was their mother when they were told a blue safety pin was attached to the dress--with so many kids, she had always kept it handy for diapers or ripped clothes.

Amazing read, with incredible detail & atmosphere
Revisado: 04-02-19
Keefe does an amazing job of taking the reader inside the atmosphere of Belfast in the early 1970s at the peak of the Troubles. He uses this setting and the incredible details he was able to uncover to tell the tragic story of the abduction and murder of Jean McConville, a mother of 10.

Vietnam - There & Back: A Combat Medic's Chronicle is a candid account of the time when Jim Purtell and several other combat vets found themselves conducting operations in the jungles of Vietnam during and after the Tet Offensive. Purtell describes in gritty detail what it was like to live and fight with an infantry company only to return to anti-Vietnam sentiment so strong that he and his fellow veterans felt nobody cared about them or the sacrifices they made.

Great book!
Revisado: 01-09-19
This is not a gung ho war book, nor is it an anti-war book, instead it is one man's story of struggling through Vietnam while trying to stay alive and help others to do the same. Jim Purtell offers an honest, straight forward, and easy to read (listen) account of his time in Vietnam as a combat medic and terrors he and many others saw and experienced.

What happens when the President of the United States governs one Tweet at a time? When the elected leader of the free world may not have a firm grasp on the names of government agencies, much less an understanding of their intricate inner-workings? In the days following the 2016 inauguration, government personnel searched for answers that didn’t exist, while White House staff scoured halls for employees who would never be appointed.

Fascinating
Revisado: 12-11-18
Very interesting and informative. I learned a lot about what the U.S. Federal Government does and doesn't do. Hint: They do a lot or used to at least until Trump got a hold of them.
The narration is good. My only critique is while Michael Lewis's other books jump around a bit, this one is pretty scattered and could have been better thought out and connected.

Tornadoes, cyclones, tsunamis… Weather can be deadly – especially when it strikes without warning. Millions of Americans could soon find themselves at the mercy of violent weather if the public data behind lifesaving storm alerts gets privatized for personal gain. In his first Audible Original feature, New York Times best-selling author and journalist Michael Lewis delivers hard-hitting research on not-so-random weather data – and how Washington plans to release it.

Fascinating and informative
Revisado: 08-10-18
Michael Lewis is an amazing story teller and a good narrator. In this short story/essay format he makes a compelling argument for strong public funding of weather research and the NOAA and National Weather Service being responsible for weather alerts, not for profit weather stations. Who while entertaining, Lewis presents a solid case they can't be counted on to make hard calls when it really counts for public weather alerts like tornadoes.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Mediocre at Best
Revisado: 08-10-18
The book is largely a compilation of the author's observations in life up to his 30s. There are a few funny stories he tells, but largely the book is repetitive and wonders without purpose or direction. No idea why this book is so popular!

In this audio investigation - unavailable in book form - Lewis narrates his 2018 report from Washington originally published in Bloomberg View. From inside the White House press room - which Lewis describes as having "the cramped, uncared-for feel of a public toilet" - to a balcony overlooking "a sea of white people" in the Trump International Hotel, to Steve Bannon's Capitol Hill townhouse, where he joins the former campaign CEO to watch the State of the Union address, Lewis takes listeners on an unforgettable behind-the-scenes tour.

Sad, depressing, but insightful as always by Lewis
Revisado: 06-30-18
This insightful work by Lewis runs just under one hour, it is both entertaining and informative and the hour flies by. As for the state of the presidency, that is another story. The picture Lewis paints is sad and depressing.
