For decades, books, movies, television shows, and conspiracy theories have speculated about the existence of life on other planets. But how possible is it that we are alone in the universe? How likely is it we’ll find a habitable, Earth-like planet? How come we have not already seen signs of extraterrestrial life? Join astrophysicist Sarah Rugheimer to reveal what we know about detecting life on other planets.

Eye-opening stuff.
Revisado: 03-31-21
Loved the steady and firm control of the arguments presented. If you’re a person interested in science, you probably knew some of the facts presented in the lectures. But the true power of this series is about connecting the dots and putting everything into a wide frame of reference. Makes you want to become an astrobiologist!

Challenging leading scientific theories that claim that our senses report back objective reality, cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman argues that while we should take our perceptions seriously, we should not take them literally. How can it be possible that the world we see is not objective reality? And how can our senses be useful if they are not communicating the truth? Hoffman grapples with these questions and more over the course of this eye-opening work.

I expected to hear about guirks of human perception, but got so much more.
Revisado: 08-20-19
Yes, you’ll learn about what, how and why we perceive the world, but this book is so much more: „The Case Against Reality” goes into epistemological and onthological territory so deep and convincing, that I had to revise my views on myself and the world. Sometimes hard and complicated, it needs a lot of focus and attention on your part, but you’ll find out a great deal about evolution, quantum mechanics, the inner lives of famous thinkers and consciousness. No previous physics and philosophy training needed, although it casts a new light on the history of both. Oh, and Mr. Timothy Andrés Pabon does a great job interpreting it for audio. Truly amazing stuff.

On a foggy summer night, 11 people - 10 privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter - depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: The plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family. Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work?

Reads like a tractatus on morality, art and modern media landscape.
Revisado: 08-14-17
A little less parabolical than his writing in "Fargo", Hawley's novels seem to touch similar themes from a different angle - more mature, deeper and just as enlightening. Plus you just can't put them down, they're that good.

A real paradox of a book.
Revisado: 04-06-15
Get a paperback version. It's weird listening to a book about everything you'd have to do in case something goes very wrong and you find yourself without electricity. Did I mention, that you're listening to it on your iPhone? Just weird, is all.
