![The Essential Marcus Aurelius [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0215/79/449aceb554afe2422056b1faf7ad7279.jpeg)
The Essential Marcus Aurelius (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B3KSRQRN | 2022 | 2 hours and 56 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 163 MB
Author: Jacob Needleman, John P. Piazza
Narrator: Victor Bevine
This inaugural-and all new-Tarcher Cornerstone Edition presents a stunningly relevant and reliable translation of the thoughts and aphorisms of the Stoic philosopher and Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, properly placing the philosopher-king's writings within the vein of the world's great religious and ethical traditions. The late antique world possessed no voice like that of Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 CE). His private meditations on what constitutes a good life have withstood the centuries and reach us today with the same penetrating clarity and shining light as the words of Shakespeare, Emerson, or Thoreau.

![The Economic Consequences of U.S. Mobilization for the Second World War [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0215/b1/f3c5ff48c6e875a22132222859729db1.jpeg)
The Economic Consequences of U.S. Mobilization for the Second World War (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BTJ9KZ4B | 2023 | 17 hours and 26 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 494 MB
Author: Alexander J. Field
Narrator: Steve Marvel
A reminder that war is not always, or even generally, good for long-term growth. Many believe that despite its destructive character, war ultimately boosts long-term economic growth. For the United States this view is often supported by appeal to the experience of the Second World War, understood as a triumph of both production and productivity. Alexander Field shows that between 1941 and 1945 manufacturing productivity actually declined, depressed by changes in the output mix and resource shocks from enemy action, including curtailed access to natural rubber and, on the Eastern Seaboard, petroleum.
