    • Even if you don’t pick up this title, please say ‘JENG-iss.’
    • ''As an anthropologist studying and teaching in Mongolia for decades, Jack Weatherford collected stories: the facts of Genghis Khan’s life (few, but significant), his legacy (huge), and the intimacy and specialness of Mongolian culture that changed and spread across the world under his aegis. Jonathan Davis’s stellar narration of every novelistic detail guarantees that this audio is the BEST. HISTORY. EVER.'' —Christina, Audible Editor

    • Downright contagious
    • ''Get Well Soon was, pardon the pun, downright contagious among our staff after it released in 2017. Wright presents an otherwise grim and morbid topic—the backstories behind several major plagues throughout history—with humor, reverence, and style, and Gabra Zackman expertly channels the author's wit.'' —Sam, Audible Editor

    • Shedding light on a mass injustice
    • ''I’m known as a bit of a true crime junkie around the office, and I can talk your ear off about how ethically executed content is the future of the genre. But there are bigger fish to fry than just salacious stories about serial killers and cults—like how the US criminal justice system has come to replace segregation as a large-scale tool of racial oppression. Civil rights lawyer Michelle Alexander’s extensively researched, groundbreaking work on mass incarceration is a must-listen for anyone interested in the hot topic of criminal justice reform, and the myriad racial and ethical issues surrounding it.'' —Kat, Audible Editor

  • The Myth of the Nice Girl Audiolibro Por Fran Hauser, Jodi Lipper arte de portada

    • The Myth of the Nice Girl

    • Achieving a Career You Love Without Becoming a Person You Hate
    • De: Fran Hauser, Jodi Lipper
    • Narrado por: Fran Hauser
    • Duración: 5 h y 51 m

    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 790 calificaciones
    • Nice girls do get the corner office, after all
    • ''Fran Hauser’s paean to being kind in the workplace could serve as a guidebook for any working woman, from the mailroom to the C-suite. After years of advice to avoid “too nice” gestures, it's refreshing for women to hear that it's okay not to tamp down any instincts they may have toward good (from the voice of someone who’s risen through the corporate ranks, no less). Yes, it’s directed to the female side of the working world, but men, feel free to listen and heed these words, too. All corners of fluorescent-lit offices could benefit from a little more kindness.'' —Courtney, Audible Editor

    • Fecha de lanzamiento: 05-08-18
    • Idioma: Inglés
    • 4.5 out of 5 stars 3,426 calificaciones
    • Looking back
    • ''I was so excited to learn of this never-before-published work from Zora Neale Hurston, the author of Their Eyes Were Watching God—one of my all-time favorite books—which comes more than 50 years after her death. Underscoring the importance of this literary event, Barracoon is the story of one of the last-known survivors of the Atlantic slave trade, in his own words and own vernacular. From his capture in a raid in Africa to his time as a slave and then as a free man, Hurston’s interviews with Cudjo Lewis in the early 1900s give a unique look at an American history we thought we knew so well.'' —Abby, Audible Editor

    • A whole world of words
    • ''Language is so weird. It can never be fully pinned down, and it evolves in fascinating and unpredictable ways. That’s what makes this course so fun. By examining the evolution of language, Professor John McWhorter elucidates a cross-section of history from a perspective we all take for granted. McWhorter knows all of the factoids behind the factoids, in multiple languages, making this course endlessly entertaining and eye-opening.'' —Michael D, Audible Editor

    • A difficult listen for difficult people
    • ''I love listens that take difficult, socially charged subjects head-on and investigate them without bias, and So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed might be the best of them. I generally find myself occupying the gray space of social issues—more interested in the effect of a given belief than the belief itself—so Ronson’s study of so-called “cancel culture” speaks to me in a way that makes me feel a little less alone in a world that seems set on defending one side of an issue at any cost.'' —Sean, Audible Editor

    • A personal look at the evolution of white nationalism
    • ''Putting a magnifying glass on Derek Black’s relationship to the white supremacist movement, Saslow’s writing has the powerful ability to humanize while offering an incredible lesson in empathy and the ability to change. As the heir-apparent to white supremacist politics, Derek’s situation and transformation is by no means a one-size-fits-all example. But given the current political climate and news cycle, it feels unfortunately relevant.'' —Michael C, Audible Editor

    • Let’s do the Nietzschean time loop again
    • ''Since I first devoured Nietzsche in my high school library, his aphorisms have become rap lyrics, his view of suffering as a virtue is de rigueur, and his moustache is, frankly, #goals. Still, I was due for a brush-up. This lively course, taught by Kathleen M. Higgins and the late Robert C. Solomon, contextualizes Nietzsche’s wild and often misinterpreted ideas in a conversational style. His concepts of eternal recurrence and amor fati are presented as the exhilarating, life-affirming notions they are. The discussion brought me back to that long-ago library and to the man who showed how, beset by adversity, we endure.'' —Kat, Audible Editor

    • An unexpected love and a little-known history
    • ''Alexis Clark has written a thoughtful account of one of our country’s darkest hidden histories: the German POW camps scattered throughout the American West and Southwest, and the Black nurses stationed there. The story of Elinor, Frederick, and their family is not only touching and emotional, but offers a glimpse of making immense sacrifices for love amidst the racism and prejudice of WWII and the Jim Crow era. It’s a heart-wrenching (but also heartwarming) account of love.'' —Michael C, Audible Editor

    • ''Listen, I can’t sugarcoat it: the state of surgery in the early 19th century was not pretty, so this listen is not for the squeamish. But if, like me, you have an appetite for cool macabre history, and you're looking for a great nonfiction book to send chills down your spine this October, give this one a try. Ralph Lister sets the perfect dramatic tone for this story—and he (fun fact) happens to count Joseph Lister among his ancestors!'' —Sam, Audible Editor

    • ''June 26, 2015 will always be cherished and remembered as a landmark moment for the entire LGBTQIA+ community; it was the day a Supreme Court ruling made same sex marriages recognizable in all states. But even before this landmark ruling, queer couplings can be found all over history. Even without the legal distinctions awarded to queer unions in 2015, LGBTQIA+ couples loved, supported, and in every other way acted as husbands and wives.'' —Michael C, Audible Editor

    • A fascinating look at the economics of dating
    • ''‘And by that, I don't mean how much it costs to buy flowers and dinner. Academic and (I would say though it may not be on her resume) social scientist Moira Weigel reveals all the various ways that the act of courtship has both shaped and been shaped by our economic landscape. Though as completely compulsively listenable as a lot of the pop science best sellers, I actually found Weigel's brilliance a little quieter and a lot more sound than much of the Freakonomics-style fare out there.''' —Emily, Audible Editor

    • The machines have taken over: here’s why you should care
    • ''If you use the internet at all (and you're reading this, so it's fair to guess you do), the basic premise of Hello World is hardly revolutionary: the same sites and apps that have brought the universe to our fingertips also create a digital footprint that influences other aspects of our lives. Though that's no surprise, the breadth of examples that Hannah Fry provides on the human consequences of the Age of Algorithms—from politics to the criminal justice system to whether or not you can buy a house—is eye-opening, even for this data nerd.

    • For fans of Call the Midwife
    • ''Amidst of all the WWII novels publishing each year, and the seemingly endless numbers of documentaries on repeat on TV, I'd completely missed this sliver of history. An estimated 70 thousand young British women followed their American GI husbands home to the United States following the war and had to make their home in a world that felt vast and opportunity-filled, but also alien. GI Brides tells the stories of four of these women. In turns romantic, hopeful, heartbreaking, and tragic, it has the narrative pace of fiction and completely sucked me in.'' —Emily, Audible Editor
