Disappointed
Revisado: 04-18-25
All the time wasted on the biblical citations, I don’t need to know chapter and verse.
Lousy reader, sounds like an old guy, snd slow. Even at 1.2speed.

How did a simple design error cause one of the great disasters of the 1980s - the collapse of the walkways at the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Hotel? What made the graceful and innovative Tacoma Narrows Bridge twist apart in a mild wind in 1940? How did an oversized waterlily inspire the magnificent Crystal Palace, the crowning achievement of Victorian architecture and engineering? These are some of the failures and successes that Henry Petroski, author of the acclaimed The Pencil, examines in this engaging, wonderfully literate book.

Dated 1985 or so, and horrible reading . And beat each episode to death.
Only listened because I was bored .

In the tradition of John Reed's classic Ten Days That Shook the World, this best-selling account of the collapse of the Soviet Union combines the global vision of the best historical scholarship with the immediacy of eyewitness journalism.

Great book, annoying reading
Revisado: 12-08-22
The reader has a staccato style. It sounds like you are listening to a 1950’s news broadcast, Richard Murrow comes to mind. Not pleasant.

One of Michiko Kakutani's (New York Times) top 10 books of 2016. A funny thing happened on the way to the digital utopia. We've begun to fall back in love with the very analog goods and ideas the tech gurus insisted that we no longer needed. Businesses that once looked outdated, from film photography to brick-and-mortar retail, are now springing with new life. Notebooks, records, and stationery have become cool again.

Nothing really new
Revisado: 10-30-22
The return of film, books, handwriting, vinyl are all well known. There was not much new here.
The above topics were beat to death (though I did love all the technical stuff about photo film).
I would have likes to see more about the analog-digital divide and the places and reasons that analogue is so much better for people.
There was really no Ergonomics or Human Factors Discussed.
Even simple things like buttons and dials coming back in automotives was skipped.
Not the book for deep thinkers about the topic.

More wine than restaurant
Revisado: 10-30-22
For a book read by its own author, it was choppy, It sounded like he was reading it , for the first time. Other readers have read much tougher books like they are telling it to you from personal experience. This sounded like a third grader reading the New York Times. NOT a pleasant experience.
About half the story was about Joe's other businesses, his vineyard, and ALL about the qualities of wine and the value of wine. Not about the restaurant, his mother Lydia or the problems with his partner Mario Batali which seems like a glossing over in light of stories in the press.
Every other sentence contains the F--- word. I am not a prude at all, and I enjoy a well placed expletive, but this was cringeworthy/excruciating.

The Art of Happiness has become the classic guide to the Dalai Lama's enlightened approach to living. In this inspirational new volume, the unique collaboration between the Dalai Lama and the highly respected scholar Howard Cutler returns with a practical application of Tibetan Buddhist spiritual values to the stressful and demanding world we all live in today.

Too much Cutler and way too little Dalai Lama.
Almost sounded like Cutler thought he was smarter than the Dalai Lama.
Much more western science than eastern wisdom.

The years between 1760 and 1800 rocked the Western world. These were the years when colonists on the eastern fringes of a continent converted the ideals of Enlightenment thought first into action, then into an actual form of government. Now you can learn why this happened and how the colonists did it-in a series of 48 insightful lectures from an award-winning teacher and author.

The whole series was excellent. My only complaint is the amount of ‘uh’s and stumbling by the lecturer. You could ignore that in a live lecture but on tape it is annoying and could have been edited out.

In this course, you will delve deeply into the philosophical underpinnings of the nation, forged by the Puritans and the leaders of the American Revolution. You will also explore many other aspects of the elaborate structure that became modern America, tracing ideas in politics, religion, education, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, literature, social theory, and science - proving that Americans have a much richer intellectual tradition than generally imagined.

Great long view of America
Revisado: 12-31-17
Even at 18hours, not enough time for anything but an overview. But it did put our American history in perspective. May end up listening again if I get free time. Definitely worth time and money.
