From multiple New York Times best-selling author, neuroscientist, and "new atheist" Sam Harris, Waking Up is for the 30 percent of Americans who follow no religion, but who suspect that Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Rumi, and the other saints and sages of history could not have all been epileptics, schizophrenics, or frauds.

What life do you want to live? What country do you want to live in? On the left hand, you have nothing; someone makes all the decisions regarding your life. On the right hand, you have everything, including your life and choice. That freedom of choice brings responsibility, wherein you have to put effort into your life and your freedom. That brings us to honesty, truth, compassion, love, and responsibility--those together make a fist to include penalty. Why is it those six words are not included in our US Constitution?

This book is a wake-up call to my fellow Americans ... to get themselves back on the road that brought America to greatness over a long historical process, one lasting from the early 1600s until America arrived at superpower status in the follow-up to World War Two (the 1950s). The book digs deeply into that long historical record - to bring to light the fact that it was a moral-spiritual dynamic, not a political-economic one, that brought about this development.

Living Up There is a memoir of time lived mostly at 10,000 feet in the Colorado Rocky Mountains in a home-made cabin. Inimitably personal, it is written with the sensibility of a loving field biologist and human wonderer. This audiobook holds obvious relations with two literary-cultural traditions: first, that of journal memoirs of days spent intentionally removed from the speed and ease and at least some of the understood contracts of "civilization," two of whose best known for bears are Henry David Thoreau's Walden and Annie Dillard's Pilgrim at Tinker Creek; and second, that of retreat to the natural basis of the world following the attainment of certain age and completion of responsibility cycles of family and livelihood.

The philosopher Susan Neiman argues that the absence of appealing models of maturity is not an accident: By describing life as a downhill process, we prepare young people to expect - and demand - very little from it. In Why Grow Up?, she challenges our culture of permanent adolescence, turning to thinkers including Kant, Rousseau, and Arendt to find a model of maturity that is not a matter of resignation. In growing up, we move from the boundless trust of childhood to the peculiar mixture of disappointment and exhilaration that comes with adolescence.

As Elizabeth Anscombe, Philippa Foot, Mary Midgley, and Iris Murdoch labored to make a place for themselves in a male-dominated world, as they made friendships and families, and as they drifted toward and away from each other, they never stopped insisting that some lives are better than others.
