We face a potent intersection of crises: ecological destruction, rising inequality, racial injustice, and the lasting impacts of a devastating pandemic. The situation is beyond urgent. To face these challenges, we need to find ways to strengthen our clarity, compassion, and courage to act. Beloved Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh is blazingly clear: There’s one thing we all have the power to change, which can make all the difference, and that is our mind.

Eduardo Ballerini should RE-narrate all of Thich Nhat Hang’s books. He gives him the best voice. The content was certainly good as with his other books. This is probably my second favorite behind “The Art Of Living”

Forget the old concepts of retirement and a deferred life plan. There is no need to wait and every reason not to, especially in unpredictable economic times. For living more and working less, this book is the blueprint. This expanded edition includes dozens of practical tips and case studies from people who have doubled their income, overcome common sticking points, and reinvented themselves using the original book.

Solid book
Revisado: 09-16-16
What made the experience of listening to The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich (Expanded and Updated) the most enjoyable?
I enjoyed hearing good ideas for improving my lifestyle. I enjoyed having someone open my eyes to the "differed life" concept. I'm so used to hearing the concept of work hard now, save for retirement. This was a refreshing change to that.
What did you like best about this story?
The idea of the 80/20 principle, the idea of working less, the idea of mini retirements, of not deferring life to when I'm old.
Have you listened to any of Ray Porter’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No but the narration was very good.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Wanted to, sure. I never listen to a book in one sitting though.
Any additional comments?
I look forward to more books by this author. He has a good site/blog that goes along with this book.

When Freakonomics was initially published, the authors started a blog - and they've kept it up. The writing is more casual, more personal, even more outlandish than in their books.

The new narrators in this book are terrible. Their other books rock but this one is a stinker.

Why we think it’s a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand’s done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared....

This was a great story. The beginning is slow and there's probably a little overkill on his statistics in regards to running. However, if you can make it past that you're in for a good story.

For much of his life, historian Howard Zinn chronicled American history from the bottom up, throwing out the official version taught in schools - with its emphasis on great men in high places - to focus on the street, the home, and the workplace. Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, A People's History of the United States is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of - and in the words of - America's women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, the working poor, and immigrant laborers.

A lot of people have been victimized for a long time. If you want to hear all about it, listen to this. It's quite good at telling that story. If you want to hear more about US history than that side of the story, look elsewhere.
