Revisado: 10-11-23
if you're a fan then you can just listen to the stories another episode. it's a voyager story plot was basic but it was good to get details they really didn't have an opportunity or bothered to in the show so that's always cool getting a little more out of your characters even when the show ends.
I have never read Star Trek books but I was raised on Star Trek next generation and recently went back and decided to watch all of them and I'm having a great time and I thought the books would be a fun companion and I can do All Star Trek all the time for the next few months

Historia
Sixteenth-century Europe was a time of destabilization of age-old norms and the waging of religious wars - yet it also witnessed the remarkable flowering of a pacific culture cultivated by a cohort of extraordinary women rulers who sat on Europe's thrones, most notably Mary Tudor; Elizabeth I; Mary, Queen of Scots; and Catherine de' Medici.

just about the the time you think the author of being bias, you get an intelligent, honest, and thoughtful accounting of the facts.. good and bad. there is depth to the submissions and cleaning it many bad facts. a great take on figures I've been well acquaintained with fot a long time

Historia
In 1959, the Soviet probe Luna 3 took the first photos of the far side of the Moon. Even in their poor resolution, the images stunned scientists: The far side is an enormous mountainous expanse, not the vast lava plains seen from Earth. Subsequent missions have confirmed this in much greater detail. How could this be, and what might it tell us about our own place in the universe? As it turns out, quite a lot. When the Earth Had Two Moons is an astonishing exploration of planet formation and the origins of life by one of the world’s most innovative planetary geologists.

it was interesting for sure
Revisado: 04-25-23
it was written casual like I'm speech to but I found it witty enough and entertaining.
it's not written in lineal terms exactly and there are several technical phases he could have explained more then once. but I really liked it. first book like this I've had. I thought the author was far very competent obviously and knew his stuff by was casual about and used lots of examples for comparison to what could be complicated info to many.
every work was cool. every matter he touched on was interesting and I am not beyond constantly backing my book up if I fall asleep when I listen at bed time. to much info to miss. highly re6

Historia
When William the Conqueror died in 1087, he left the throne of England to William Rufus . . . his second son. The result was an immediate war as Rufus's elder brother Robert fought to gain the crown he saw as rightfully his; this conflict marked the start of 400 years of bloody disputes as the English monarchy's line of hereditary succession was bent, twisted, and finally broken when the last Plantagenet king, Richard III, fell at Bosworth in 1485.

it's like naming the Plantagenet kings..
Revisado: 01-25-23
except backwards.
it goes into detail about the players who has a chance at the crown. me..a right even.. but didn't get it. I found it to be very informative about a part of history I know well and this spin on it really just five deeper into some side characters. this time the Kings have to share a spotlight with the rivals on a level scale. and it is great. you still go over the Kings you know well but get more info by delving into the Kings that never were

Historia
This paradigm-shifting book paints a spirited portrait of a restless people that challenges our established ways of looking at Europe's past. The story is more complex than at first believed, with new evidence suggesting that the European gene pool was stirred vigorously multiple times. Genetic clues are also enhancing our understanding of European mobility in epochs with written records, including the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons, the spread of the Slavs, and the adventures of the Vikings.

this book is very comprehensive
Revisado: 01-25-23
ok.. I struggled with the scientific jargon of DNA .I understand haplogroups but not remember the details from Amy but my own really.
this book talks about that stuff. along with a pretty awesome narrative about a lot of our ancestral history. dating from the being with neanderthals and then homosapiens. I found the information of the movements of people's thru history interesting. they talk about more then DNA.. they talk about language and migration and people/society's absorbing certain people and how they know to put it together as to why we ended up in having DNA from places. and then they tell you the DNA market they tested from those areas..
it's strange.. it was almost a bit too much info from the DNA stuff cause being me to it, I didn't always get it.
it's definitely a smart person who knows their fine science very well.
maybe not a beginner into DNA history. but a very smart book.. that does flow well..
I will read it again when I know more.

Historia
Mike Rinder’s parents began taking him to their local Scientology center when he was five years old. After high school, he signed a billion-year contract and was admitted into Scientology’s elite inner circle, the Sea Organization. Brought to founder L. Ron Hubbard’s yacht and promised training in Hubbard’s most advanced techniques, Rinder was instead put to work swabbing the decks. Still, Rinder bought into the doctrine that his personal comfort was secondary to the higher purpose of Hubbard’s world-saving mission.

really like Mike render
Revisado: 01-06-23
I'm always astonished by these organizations, cults, churches that get to the place where they control a believer and there is a legit megalomanic who made it all up. Schoology, fundamentalist Mormons, Mooney's, children of God... Jones town. these are my favorite.. as in crazy shit levels is high.
I've actually read a lot about Hubbard and scientology and knew these guys were getting involved innocently into a pulp fiction con man writers made up story.
I've seen Mike render on the show with Leah and found Mike too be a very interesting honest and genuinely kind. I have respect for him and his journey.
in this book, he tells his journey and his thought path as it was during his journeys. it's honest. I think he's more honest then people give him credit for.
he is saying he messed up .. he did low shit during his time in the sea org. but he got there honestly.!!! and when he realized and admitted to himself he had to get out and eventually try to atone ..he steps up.. and gets out and does attone , he helped people and again he didn't lie about what he did . how he felt now he is out, taking openly about how all that went on. that is hard to do.
I thought the book was a good true telling. took him long enough to write a book . but I think he just had to get there and I'm glad he did. it's well written and complied and I love the fact Mike read his own book. which usually I hate, but I think it was perfect. being familiar with him already it made that listening twice as good cause you got his inflections of emotions that only someone who is reading Thier own story could give you
5 stars. good job Mike! thanks for writing it! you're doing good work.

Historia
In recent years, the common perception of the Neanderthals has been transformed, thanks to new discoveries and paradigm-shattering scientific innovations. It turns out that the Neanderthals' behavior was surprisingly modern: they buried the dead, cared for the sick, hunted large animals in their prime, harvested seafood, and communicated with spoken language. Meanwhile, advances in DNA technologies are compelling us to reassess the Neanderthals' place in our own past.

I mean.. I did get a lesson but also a lecture
Revisado: 01-06-23
the book you did have some straight information about the Neanderthals and the migrations of Africa and Bones were found and what they learned . center just on neanderthals . after they throw all the technical names and different human groups, regions and their various migrations... they could have explained/simplified/recapped the info but a lot is new to me an I just wish the book would have generalized and did a sum up at times. it was up to me to know what he was talking about when he threw out names and actions or events that you needed to become familiar with in order to follow the facts they info they pound you with. i just kept going until I finally half way thru I felt I had took in names and stuff so I was able to understand who was doing what. but that's means I didn't really understand the first half of book clearly . I had to work out things they seemed to assume I knew.
I felt like it didn't have lots of info it shared about neanderthals. I do feel comfortable understand the migrations and the effect climate had, and our common ancestor .
oddly there's also a lot .. a LOT of "complaining" or shaming humans because apparently we all misunderstand the neanderthal and call him cave man and use the name as a negative condensation. the book really was always talking about us humans associating the neanderthal wrongly .. like we're not aware that neanderthals aren't idiots. and a while section at the end going over neanderthal in contemporary media platforms.
that slowed the book and the fact that they told the story without consideration for how much new info we would actually be able to take in and understand at the pace they kept at. never recapping when they could have said a few w sentences that would help clarify all the new info . but always throwing in info about how neanderthals are wrongly seen by world
it was not a bad book, but they seemed to think we were already on their brain level with this info and knew their intentions for the next chapter.
anyway I'll shut up.. I think you should listen. but it was a little out of touch with readers that aren't people who know all about this like they did.

story was mild, written fine
Revisado: 12-13-22
this guy sounds like an ass .. this relationship was inappropriate and that teacher was sick. but it also hear read like many shitty boyfriends I or my friends had.
the twist here was supposed to be cause he was her teacher. many men in those positions act the same way.
much is that inherent privilege men and boys have. it's all about their inherent desire for sex that should be given them.
but this book was really just about as shitty boyfriend and relationship. a normal shitty boring relationship. except that guy was hitting on her and grooming her while still her teacher.
I applaud the author's honesty and must of all her being smart enough to figure out it was unhealthy! and get away.
on A final note, it doesn't escape my notice that the desensitization I have just displayed in this review.. is indeed another sick problem to these events.

Historia
Virginal, chaste, humble, patiently waiting for rescue by brave knights and handsome princes: this idealized—and largely mythical—notion of the medieval noblewoman still lingers. Yet the reality was very different, as Kelcey Wilson-Lee shows in this vibrant account of the five daughters of Edward I, often known as Longshanks. The lives of these sisters—Eleanora, Joanna, Margaret, Mary, and Elizabeth—ran the gamut of experiences open to royal women in the Middle Ages.

amazing information about a set of Royal princesses that you thought wouldn't be interesting or was possibly known I thought it was very interesting and did enjoy listening to it it's parts of History I know that was just elaborated on and I just found the intimate amount of information interesting probably not for people who aren't already in a deep love of History but I thought it was informative and well put together
