Most people think that being prepared for catastrophe means stocking up on MREs and building a bunker in their backyard, but this approach leaves you vulnerable in the real world of car accidents, natural disasters, grid failures, and global pandemics. Prepared overturns today’s paranoid survival wisdom and teaches the foundational skills of preparedness that will not only help you build situational awareness and achieve greater mobility but that will also help you build resilient mental habits.

The exponential rise of technology, global flattening of markets, instant communication, and pressures on corporate workforces to do more with less - including resources, funding, and staff - have all revolutionized the world in which we live and work.

A former Buddhist monk decides the very best way to spread his mindfulness teachings is by launching an app (Headspace). A sandwich cart vendor finds a way to reuse leftover pita bread and turns it into a multimillion-dollar business (Stacy’s Pita Chips).

Rand Fishkin, the founder and former CEO of Moz, reveals how traditional Silicon Valley "wisdom" leads far too many startups astray, with the transparency and humor that his hundreds of thousands of blog readers have come to love. Everyone knows how a startup story is supposed to go: A young, brilliant entrepreneur has a cool idea, drops out of college, defies the doubters, overcomes all odds, makes billions, and becomes the envy of the technology world. This is not that story. It's not that things went badly for Rand Fishkin; they just weren't quite so Zuckerberg-esque.

Publisher's summary
Welcome to Amazon! Several years ago, Amazon made a conscious choice to invest in downtown Seattle, even though it would've been cheaper to move to the suburbs. Amazon chose to commit to Seattle because they believed it was the right choice for Amazon employees and for the city. Now, Amazon's Headquarters is made up of over 30 office buildings. On this Amazon Headquarters Tour, you will learn how Amazon's unique urban campus is deeply connected to the surrounding community. In addition, you will explore Amazon's history, learn about Amazon's customer obsession, and find out why at Amazon, every day truly is Day 1. In fact, the tour starts at our office building called Day 1 at 2121 7th Ave. Seattle, WA 98121. It ends in South Lake Union at 399 Fairview Ave. N. Seattle, WA 98109.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

More like an ad or employee training presentation
This gives tons of info on what it is like to be an Amazon employee (which seems pretty cool). Not much on what the company does and what goes on in each building. I thought it was very self serving. Also, the amazon campus could benefit from a souvenir shop since it is now a destination for tourists to Seattle. Overall very disappointing.

Absorbed thousands of miles from Seattle
I listened to this in New Jersey and hence did not walk the campus. There were interesting facts and naturally my mind built a creative vision of the campus. The introduction of “code names” and the use in the company after programs launched shows an innovative way to benchmark progress...Bear skeleton lessons included

Buildings and Stories
Caveat: We toured on a weekend so we couldn’t get into the lobbies.
You get a sense of how Amazon’s offices are spread around the city and the efforts Amazon makes to be a good citizen. It is heavy on Pro-Amazon propaganda though, everything they do is great and all their employees are both smart and happy.
Worth taking the tour only if you have the time, not a must.

I listened to the guided tour to help familiarize myself with Amazon and it's culture. It's a great way to learn more about the company and made me very excited for my visit to their campus. Amazon has done a great job telling their story through their employees and campus in this guided tour.

Thank you for the ingenuity and innovation of this amazing audible tour. While I was unable to walk to all parts of the campus, I sat in a hotel lobby listening and smiling in amazement. All the way along I thought, what a Fabulous place to work. Jeff B has created the perfect all encompassing US Company. Thank you and I am hooked on Amazon for life!!

Free tour of Amazon world
Overall good tour although if your only here for the weekend you cannot go into the buildings where access is allowed. It’s also a self promotion tour of how great Amazon is & that’s to be expected. Get your walking shoes on as you will be traveling up & down the streets of Seattle. I plugged in address because the guide downplays some of the distances between stops. Could be a shorter tour than the allotted but w/all the stories of self promotion it’s over 1 hour w/walking involved.

Quite dissapointing...
Unfortunately this tour wasn't what we were expecting at all. Rather than a tour of the campus and explaining where innovations have been dreamt up and how, the tour is extremely self-serving and self-promotional. It primarily boasts Amazon as Seattle's best new company, and the things they're doing around renewability etc... I'd rather hear where Amazon Web Services was born, or the history of the buildings and why their sprawling campus is laid out how it is - not about the free banana stand. The idea of this ebook is great but it definitely needs changing.

A sidesplitting, heartrending look at life—and death. This powerfully personal production, recorded live from the Minetta Lane Theatre, cuts through the platitudes, directly reaching out to anyone who has ever experienced loss—or will. So...everyone.

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.

Story5 out of 5 stars 168
As a young boy growing up on the outskirts of Dublin, the stage and screen legend sought refuge in a world of imagination among the fields and hills near his home, at the edge of a rapidly encroaching city. Moving between sensual recollection of childhood in a now almost vanished Ireland and commentary on stardom, the actor-writer returned to Broadway and Audible to reflect on a life’s journey.

In this brave and moving memoir, Corey Feldman is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.

At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.
