From AskMen senior editor and non-binary writer Alex Manley comes The New Masculinity: A Roadmap for a 21st-Century Definition of Manhood, a guide for escaping the shackles of toxic masculinity, unlearning what it means to be a man, and pushing back against the various ways masculinity teaches people to hurt rather than help, and to harm rather than heal. Manley charts a course for a wholly new future of the self that’s neither particularly manly nor particularly masculine, but responsive, invested, and caring.

Author: Victor Cha, Ramon Pacheco Pardo
Narrator: Julian Elfer

A major new history of North and South Korea, from the late nineteenth century to the present day. Korea has a long, riveting history-it is also a divided nation. South Korea is a vibrant democracy, the tenth largest economy, and is home to a world-renowned culture. North Korea is ruled by the most authoritarian regime in the world, a poor country in a rich region, and is best known for the cult of personality surrounding the ruling Kim family. But both Koreas share a unique common history. Victor Cha and Ramon Pacheco Pardo draw on decades of research to explore the history of modern Korea, from the late nineteenth century, Japanese occupation, and Cold War division to the present day. A small country caught amongst the world’s largest powers-including China, Japan, Russia, and the United States-Korea’s fate has been closely connected to its geography and the strength of its leadership and society. This comprehensive history sheds light on the evolving identities of the two Koreas, explaining the sharp differences between North and South, and prospects for unification.

Author: Stephen D. King
Narrator: Shaun Grindell

Globalization, long considered the best route to economic prosperity, is not inevitable. An approach built on the principles of free trade and, since the 1980s, open capital markets is beginning to fracture. With disappointing growth rates across the Western world, nations are no longer willing to sacrifice national interests for global growth, nor are their leaders able – or willing – to sell the idea of pursuing a global agenda of prosperity to their citizens.

Author: Maureen Seaberg
Narrator: Cindy Kay

In 2016, scientists proved that humans could see light at the level of a single photon. We are living in historic times when humans may look at the very fabric of the universe in a laboratory setting. Around the world, other recent discoveries about the senses are just as astounding. It turns out we can hear amplitudes smaller than an atom, smell a trillion scents, have a set of taste buds that can discern molecules of fresh water, and can feel through the sense of touch the difference of a single molecule. Fearfully and Wonderfully Made takes listeners through their own bodies, delving into the molecular and even the quantum, and tells the story of our magnificent sensorium and what it means for the next wave of human potential. From the laboratories to the ordinary homes where these breakthroughs are taking place, the book explores our current sensory Renaissance and shows listeners how they, themselves, can heighten their own senses and experience the miraculous.

English | ASIN: B0CD2PP1J3 | 2023 | 21 hours and 12 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 604 MB
Author: Mark Gregory Pegg
Narrator: Richard Burnip

A new history of the Middle Ages, revealing how Christianity and Islam evolved out of a shared cultural and religious ferment, and how this shaped the development of the West. The medieval world, stretching from the Mediterranean to the North Sea, from the Asian Steppes to the Straits of Gibraltar and North Africa, from the Nile to the Volga, lasted from the fourth to the sixteenth centuries. This geographical and temporal breadth (including the early decades of European conquest and settlement in the Americas), is much larger and longer than that imagined by medieval historians only half a century ago. New and exciting scholarship from the last three decades continues to shape this expansive vision, powerfully enhancing our insight into what it means to talk about medieval Europe specifically and western culture in general. In Beatrice’s Last Smile, Mark Pegg offers a synthesis of the most innovative scholarship on the Middle Ages of the last thirty years.
