The Old Testament - written in ancient Israel by many different authors over the course of a thousand years - has had more meaning to more people than any other book the world has known. In a series of 24 lively lectures, Professor Levine explores selected passages from the texts known as the Old Testament, the Hebrew Bible, and the Tanakh, revealing how fresh research and findings from scholars of archaeology, cross-cultural studies, and comparative religion can deepen your understanding.

Confusing and disjointed
Revisado: 04-05-24
Very poorly organized. Focused on boring trivia that added nothing to the overall understanding of the text. Not recommended at all. Terrible course.

Like a thief in the night, artificial intelligence has inserted itself into our lives. It makes important decisions for us every day. Often, we barely notice. As Joe Allen writes in this groundbreaking book, “Transhumanism is the great merger of humankind with the Machine. At this stage in history, it consists of billions using smartphones. Going forward, we’ll be hardwiring our brains to artificial intelligence systems.” With an academic background in both science and theology, Allen confronts the paradox of what he calls “good people constructing a digital abomination.”

Jumbled boring mess of bizarre topics.

Mostly boring and tedious story that leaps from weird topic to weird topic. I sped up the play but finally just quit listening. Don’t waste your money on this. It’s awful.

We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis, and mental illnesses are on the rise. But what causes mental illness? And why are mental health problems so hard to treat? Drawing on decades of research, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer outlines a revolutionary new understanding that for the first time unites our existing knowledge about mental illness within a single framework: mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain. Brain Energy will transform the field of mental health, and the lives of countless people around the world.

Zero useful information. Authors is not a scientist and has no clue about biochemistry, physiology or molecular biology. Cherry picked references about mitochondria that pushed his agenda. I got so tied of being told to consult my healthcare professional.

Published in six volumes between 1776 and 1781, The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire - for all its renown - can be intimidating. It contains one point five million words, an estimated 8,000 footnotes, a cast of 10,000 historical figures, and a timeline of more than 1,000 years. Yet even today, Gibbon's historical chronicle demands to be understood.

Deceitful and boring.
Revisado: 12-13-23
This book is a boring and an endless explanation of the writings of Gibbon-not about the Roman Empire. The author of this course blathers on and on about Gibbons intellect. He loves trashing everything about Christianity and tries to justify the warped bias that Gibbon brings to his writings. I hated Gibbon more after each awful chapter. Don’t waste your time with this disaster.

In the late 1600s, a distinguished English polymath, Robert Hooke, and an eccentric Dutch cloth merchant, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, look down their handmade microscopes. What they see introduces a radical concept that sweeps through biology and medicine, touching virtually every aspect of the two sciences and altering both forever. It is the fact that complex living organisms are assemblages of tiny self-contained, self-regulating units. Our organs, our physiology, our selves—hearts, blood, brains—are built from these compartments. Hooke christens them 'cells'.

Boring, tedious, flowery endless stories
Revisado: 12-13-23
Hated the endless stories that diluted the information. Chapters 1 and 2 were mentally lazy fantasy about the origin of cells. The CoVID coverage was a joke. I got so tired of flowery prose and stupid explanations, especially of the heart and brain that I gave up. Don’t buy this trash. It’s awful. The reading was even worse.

Predictable story wrapped in Vax stupidity

A totally predictable story of cannibalism wrapped around endless COVID/vax stupidity. Our woke medical expert/author Dr King is astonishing ignorant of vaccine science but insists on boring us page by page with his tedious message. Don’t waste your money on this trash.

A Lie Too Big to Fail asserts the idea that a government can never investigate itself in a crime of this magnitude. Was the convicted Sirhan Sirhan a willing participant? Or was he a mind-controlled assassin? It has fallen to independent researchers like Pease to lay out the evidence in a clear and concise manner, allowing listeners to form their theories about this event. Pease places the history of this event in the context of the era and provides shocking overlaps between other high-profile murders and attempted murders of the time.

Painfully long explanation of the Kennedy assassination read by a Doris Day sound alike. Tiring to hear the constant refrain of how the Kennedy’s were going to save the world. Not worth spending 22 hours of listening.

The Bodies of Others is about how we came to the harrowing civilizational crossroads at which we find ourselves—engaged in a war against vast impersonal forces with limitless power over our lives and which threaten the freedoms we have always taken for granted. In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Naomi Wolf shows how these forces—from Big Tech and Big Pharma to the CCP and our oligarchical elites—seized upon two years of COVID-19 panic in sinister new ways, to not only undermine our republic but to fundamentally reorient human relations.

What a waste of a book credit
Revisado: 05-04-23
Progressive elitist and self proclaimed New York intellectual has written a fluff filled information barren story with little to no supporting data but dripping with whiny emotion at every turn. This book is pitiful. Do not waste your money or credit on something so worthless.

The most important fact about the coronavirus pandemic that turned the world upside down in 2020 is that our response to it has been an epic overreaction driven by a disastrous confluence of public and private interests - all of them purporting to “follow the science”. Since the lockdowns began, millions of Americans have relied on the reporting of Alex Berenson. Exposing the hysteria and manipulation behind the worst failure of public policy since World War I, this clear-eyed journalist has been a critical source of reason and truth.

Over-hyped fluff disappointment
Revisado: 12-20-21
This is a pathetic attempt to help "enlighten" us about the underlying COVID crisis and to feel sorry for the plight of the author. There is very little substance here and nothing that will make a difference in the lives of the reader. Mostly a rehash of 2020 politics with almost nothing regarding 2021. Pathetic coverage of the Fauci debacle and his ties to big Pharma. Nothing about the efficacy of early treatments and their suppression by the cabal. Lots of boring garbage about NYT, the Atlantic and Twitter. Much hand wringing about his Twitter account and personal sacrifices dealing with the media. Lots of whining about Trump but almost nothing about Biden. Poorly narrated by the author. I just kept waiting for something of substance to appear but was left with only meaningless fluff, My advice is to read the Kennedy and Markson books for some important detail and compelling stories. This book is a self-hyped disappointment.
