In a clandestine facility, a colossal mechanical brain is built as Americas cutting-edge defense against the specter of war. While its formidable capabilities are initially harnessed for military operations crucial to national security, The Brain soon finds its powers extending into the mundane aspects of modern life. But what unfolds when this extraordinary machine ... awakens? (Summary by quartertone)

Most of us recognize that climate change is real yet we do nothing to stop it. What is the psychological mechanism that allows us to know something is true but act as if it is not? George Marshall’s search for the answers brings him face to face with Nobel Prize-winning psychologists and Texas Tea Party activists; the world’s leading climate scientists and those who denounce them; liberal environmentalists and conservative evangelicals. What he discovers is that our values, assumptions, and prejudices can take on lives of their own, gaining authority as they are shared.

Called “the best kind of nonfiction” by Michael Connelly, this riveting new book combines true crime, brain science, and courtroom drama. In 1991, the police were called to East 72nd St. in Manhattan, where a woman's body had fallen from a twelfth-story window. The woman’s husband, Herbert...

They might not have had social media a hundred years ago, but this smackdown by Bernard Shaw on this poor guy is awesome. Also, this is a great way to actually learn what democratic socialism is instead of just throwing it around as a bogeyman buzzword.

Best-selling author Chris Mooney uses cutting-edge research to explain the psychology behind why today’s Republicans reject reality - it’s just part of who they are. From climate change to evolution, the rejection of mainstream science among Republicans is growing, as is the denial of expert consensus on the economy, American history, foreign policy, and much more. Why won’t Republicans accept things that most experts agree on? Why are they constantly fighting against the facts?

This award-winning journalist has had it with fat-shaming and all-shaming, seething sexual assault in the workplace, and people who scream others down because they think differently.

From the moment he burst onto the national political scene, Barack Obama has fascinated people more than any politician in decades. Many biographers have already retold his story, but no previous book truly explains how his mind works, what passions drive him, or what makes him such an effective leader.

For sure - this is the cancer book for rednecks! Only someone who survived boot camp would even understand. Twenty-six years of brain cancer makes me infinitely qualified to speak on survival. I hope the audible gives it justice. The published lead in says it all: In an unprecedented format, the Guerilla Guide to Brain Tumors is written in a format that combines the layout of the For Dummies series with a drill-Sargent's attitude. This is a book of war...nothing warm, and fuzzy, or socially acceptable here, and nothing about "Dying with Dignity". Just what it takes to win.

Brain Infections from Parasitic Worms: A Neglected Global Health Crisis The recent revelation that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. once had a parasitic worm in his brain has shone a spotlight on a significant yet often overlooked global health issue – infections caused by parasitic worms that can invade and damage the brain and central nervous system. While relatively rare in the United States, these infections represent a major public health challenge in many low- and middle-income regions of the world. The World Health Organization estimates a staggering 2.56 ...

Fields, Factories, and Workshops (1898) was one of Kropotkin's three most important texts (along with The Conquest of Bread and Mutual Aid - also available on Ukemi Audiobooks). Its subtitle - Industry Combined with Agriculture and Brain Work with Manual Work - indicates that although he starts from a Marxist standpoint, concerned with the exploitation of the wage-labourer and the inequality suffered by the majority of the social classes, he was equally concerned with the 'human needs of the individual’.

What makes a person liberal or conservative? Why does the Democratic Party scare off so many possible supporters? When does our "injustice trigger" get pulled, and how can fairness overcome our human need to look for a zero-sum outcome to our political battles? Daniel Meegan suggests that American liberals are just missing the point. If progressives want to win the vote, they need to change strategy completely and champion government benefits for everyone, not just those of lower income. Fairness, he writes, should be selfishly enjoyed by everyone.

Welcome to the Brain Buffet! Where Kyle and Brendan offer food for thought in a buffet style.

Can a football game affect the outcome of an election? What about shark attacks? Or a drought? In a rational world the answer, of course, would be no. But as best-selling historian Rick Shenkman shows in Political Animals, our world is anything but rational. This isn't because we aren't smart. Instead, modern cues are setting off ancient, instinctive responses that worked to keep us safe in the Stone Age but lead us astray today.
