Pimsleur courses are great, including this one, but on a cell phone hard to know from the tiny font on the thumbnail which lessons are in which "book." I go back and review a lot and need to see those numbers.

Historia
Emery loses track of reality in a deluded, overconfident haze as she becomes a Silicon Valley icon; people begin to suspect there’s something in the mustard.

Historia
In Eisenhower's Sputnik Moment, Yanek Mieczkowski examines the early history of America's space program, reassessing Eisenhower's leadership. He details how Eisenhower approved breakthrough satellites, supported a new civilian space agency, signed a landmark science education law, and fostered improved relations with scientists. Offering a fast-paced account of this Cold War episode, Mieczkowski demonstrates that Eisenhower built an impressive record in space and on earth.

Brings back memories
Revisado: 06-06-21
This was a good book and well narrated. It has been a year since I listened to it, but one takeaway was that Ike was interested in peaceful usefulness of a space program, and was not easily goaded into doing a manned space program for show, partly because of his fiscal conservatism and his focus on practical uses. Even though the author didn't exactly say it this way, it seems the political opposition wanted to do whatever was un-Eisenhower, which is partly why the space program became what it became. Even though it wasn't what Eisenhower aimed for, a lot of groundwork for it had been laid under his administration. (I remember those days, but I was in elementary school then and certainly didn't have all the context that is given in this book. It's good to be able to put that together with what bits and pieces I do remember.)

Historia
Ambassadors from Earth relates the story of the first unmanned space probes and planetary explorers - from the Sputnik and Explorer satellites launched in the late 1950's to the thrilling interstellar Voyager missions of the '70's - that yielded some of the most celebrated successes and spectacular failures of the space age. Jay Gallentine delivers a quirky and unforgettable look at the lives and legacy of the Americans and Soviets who conceived, built, and guided those unmanned missions to the planets and beyond.

The original space program
Revisado: 07-01-20
Manned space missions got a lot of headlines, understandably enough, but were almost a sideshow to the scientific program. I'm old enough to remember Sputnik, but a lot of this story of unmanned missions passed me by as it was happening. I read headlines and not a whole lot more. So this book was a great way to get caught up, and also to learn about the tussle between the manned and unmanned space projects. It follows the careers and personal lives of people like James van Allen and his student George Ludwig to help one see how the programs intersected with their lives. Very well done all around.
