About this listen
This is a bundle of several books that talks about different philosophers and thinkers.
The first of these thinkers is Thomas Aquinas, a Catholic man of the clergy, who had refreshing new concepts to propose about God, life, and the afterlife. The Marian prayer, the natural law, and some of his inspiring quotes and sayings will be included here.
Following this religious man is the famous David Hume, a Scottish historian and thinker, who was a firm advocate of skepticism, naturalism, and empiricism. His thoughts and quotes have been praised by many. Scientific topics were some of the things he was most interested in, and some of these will be discussed in further detail.
Another religious man with political views is Desiderius Erasmus, a philosopher and scholar from the Netherlands, who was born during the renaissance and stood for the right to education, humanistic views, and Protestantism.
We will discuss Baruch Spinoza’s ideas, who combined stoicism, rationalism, and naturalistic views about God in extreme ways. His ethics have been questioned and defended by many philosophers.
First, the political philosopher John Locke will be explored. Mr. Locke was the libertarian who said something when things appeared to go in the wrong direction. Some considered him to be an idealist, but his assessments of the government, the concept of property, and that of human rights have been the proponents of liberty and have inspired many to take action.
After this critical thinker, we will focus on Immanuel Kant, one of the most famous philosophers from Germany. Originally from Prussia, Kant explains to us why human reasoning about metaphysics, ethics, and intelligence is superior, and how his method called “criticism” has revolutionized the way people look at philosophy.
Next in line is Plato, Aristotle’s student from ancient Greece. Being one of the founders of classical philosophy, he writes about epistemology, education, democracy, and metaphysics.
Later, take a look at Jean-Paul Sartre, a well-known philosopher from the 20th century, who is seen as the embodiment of existentialism. After the Second World War, his intellectual knowledge set the tone for the irony and atmosphere of the culture.
You will most likely realize how sophisticated and intelligent Rene Descartes was. His rationalism and his logical conclusions have paved the way for rhetoric discussion about the essence of one’s existence and the idea of God. His speeches about materialism will be outlined and summarized, and many important quotes and background information will be given.
After this, the guide will touch on Friedrich Nietzsche’s ideas. This man’s influence is undoubtedly grand and impressive. His nihilism and his theories about the free will we all possess as human beings have helped people become more accomplished and motivated.
The last thinker of the 20th century is Karl Marx. And despite the many good and bad faces of communism that have been applied in the past 100 years, it’s important to note that Karl Marx’s ideas were unique, fresh, and fascinating, especially when you consider his ethics and views on capitalism, social systems, ideologies, and civilization, in general.

Verbal abuse basically means putting other people down. It can be through gossip, belittling comments, or bullying. I think most people are at least guilty of a little slander or unjustified, harsh criticism that they have given others. But in its extremities, it can cause some serious issues, including depression, suicide, vengeance, and more.

Story
The majority of this book is based on the concept of fallacies. This idea is the notion that people often come up with the wrong reasoning, the wrong conclusions, and the wrong steps in their logic. Since they do this, they often argue about things that completely seem to contradict each other, but they don’t. Many people base their fallacies on emotions, past experiences, biased thoughts, or some other thing that gets in the way of pure, correct, infallible logic.

Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept?

The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed bestseller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Story
On a March night in 2000, two deputy sheriffs serving a warrant were shot in Atlanta, Georgia. One was severely wounded while the other would die a day later. The shooting kicked off a large manhunt in search of the alleged cop killer. Four days later in Alabama, authorities found their man—Jamil Al-Amin. He was a Muslim leader with the title of Imam in the West End neighborhood of Atlanta. He was also the man formerly known as H. Rap Brown. He was a charismatic Black radical in the late '60s.

I have discovered a group of women who refuse to be exploited, are immune to manipulation, and who never settle in the name of love. These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

This book is terrific. I urge you (or perhaps any person who checks this out) to buy this audio book. I liked it. Such an intriguing idea. I believe I will let my brother or sisters spouse listen to it. They need to know that there are audiobooks like these out there.

This write-up shows my personal opinions and interests. The storyteller's voice was simply calming. Did I already point out that it sounded very professional? It did. Without a doubt, and that's exactly why I just liked listening to it so much. I literally did not see anything bad with this book. If I am wrong, then let me know about that. However, I found it to be almost perfect, and that's what made a difference to me.

This is a secret jewel. This book has precious information. This audiobook was worth paying attention to, in my honest opinion. I guess the first couple of pages were my favorite ones, since the entire principle that the title talks about, gets explained. All the basics are here. Later on in the book, more depth gets included, and I believe this is what makes it so great.

By far, one of the greatest books in this area of interest. This audio book is entitled to a big, fat 5-star review. It's an interesting concept, the whole premise of this book. You don't generally see that in other books. And that's the reason why it can use a person like me to compose a couple of positive things about it.

I simply just wanted to write something positive about this audio book. This audiobook was worth paying attention to, in my view. I learned a lot just by soaking everything up. The information was great, especially if you already understand a bit about the idea. Really, you might know nothing at all about it and still follow along effortlessly.

The difference between this audio book and some other audio books, is really that this book is a lot better. The audiobook explains numerous perspectives extremely well. It also dives deeper into the content. My favorite parts of the book were actually the last chapters, in which the conclusion clicked. I completely enjoyed listening to this book. It contains all of the elements of a publication about this subject that it ought to have.
