Historia
Author Kit Chapman is a lifelong motorsports fan who has previously worked with Virgin Racing’s Formula E team on the chemistry and material science of their cars. With help from his wide range of contacts in the industry, Kit criss-crosses the globe from Ohio to Monaco, Spain to Bahrain. He steps behind the scenes of current engineering breakthroughs, picking up extraordinary tales along the way, such as that of maverick designer Warren Mosler who designed a car so fast it was banned from racing.

Entertaining and informative
Revisado: 06-21-22
A great listen if you're a fan of F1 or Formula E. Some of the accents he does take you out of the story and the author has a sneering attitude about some things, but very informative nonetheless.

Historia
Michael Pollan, known for his best-selling nonfiction audio, including The Omnivores Dilemma and How to Change Your Mind, conceived and wrote Caffeine: How Caffeine Created the Modern World as an Audible Original. In this controversial and exciting listen, Pollan explores caffeine’s power as the most-used drug in the world - and the only one we give to children (in soda pop) as a treat.

An eye opener

As an avid consumer of coffee, pop and energy drinks, I certainly thought twice about my caffeine consumption and sleep.

Entertaining, but Hollis has lost some credibility
Revisado: 12-16-20
Good talk for dudes about how to approach mental health and broaden your perspectives. It is definitely an entertaining listen, but in parts he just comes off as a privileged guy who likes to hear himself talk.
A good portion of the book is about his amazing relationship with his wife. He says he doesn't take relationship advice from people with failed relationships and three months after this book was released, Hollis and his wife separated... Oops.

Historia
Most children go through a dinosaur phase. Learning all the tongue-twisting names, picking favourites based on ferocity, armour, or sheer size. For many kids this love of ‘terrible lizards’ fizzles out at some point between starting and leaving primary school. All those fancy names slowly forgotten, no longer any need for a favourite. For all those child dino fanatics who didn’t grow up to become paleontologists, dinosaurs seem like something out of mythology. They are dragons, pictures in books, abstract, other, extinct.

Makes Me Feel Like A Kid Again
Revisado: 11-11-20
Overall, I liked the wonder it inspired in me again. Lots of cool facts and history. However, the book ends as a call to action against climate change. 🙄

Historia
Ulysses S. Grant's life has typically been misunderstood. All too often he is caricatured as a chronic loser and an inept businessman or as the triumphant but brutal Union general of the Civil War. But these stereotypes don't come close to capturing him, as Chernow reveals in his masterful biography, the first to provide a complete understanding of the general and president whose fortunes rose and fell with dizzying speed and frequency.

My perspective on my money has changed
Revisado: 06-29-17
Dave's Total Money Makeover is compelling and motivating for people in sure financial straights and those who think they're living "normally." A must listen if you've never considered the concept of personal finance.
I would also recommend The Millionaire Next Door immediately after this book.
