excellent performance
Revisado: 07-23-22
the narrator was fantastic. he brought life to the characters.
some of the scenes were poorly detailed. the author could use some work in better illustrating actions, intent, and group scenes. I also think so.e work was needed to better describe the global map. it wasn't always clear where different scenes were taking place.
I came here because I liked the TV series so much and I think the TV series did an exceptional job in portraying and improving on the original story. I enjoyed getting a small taste of story variance.
I'm excited to keep going in the saga. I'm playing the witcher 3 game right now and I'm eager to see how that storyline compares.

overall very interesting
Revisado: 03-26-22
the first few chapters don't mean much to me. there is a deliberate attempt to paint himself a patriot. a little to thick for my taste. but the latter parts of the book are very interesting. I enjoyed a survey of the responsibilities of each held position and the specific motivations that drove his choices. I would recommend to anyone who is connected to the internet.

absolute garbage
Revisado: 03-19-22
Author only pushes keto diet. Most arguments are not well grounded in science. I was 4 chapters in and got literally no helpful advice. this is a scam at best.

Historia
In a world of self-driving cars and big data, smart algorithms and Siri, we know that artificial intelligence is getting smarter every day. Though all these nifty devices and programs might make our lives easier, they're also well on their way to making "good" jobs obsolete. A computer winning Jeopardy might seem like a trivial, if impressive, feat, but the same technology is making paralegals redundant as it undertakes electronic discovery, and is soon to do the same for radiologists.

very presumptuous
Revisado: 03-04-22
the first six chapters are very interesting but after that the author become increasingly political, offering advice for future policy rather than examining history. many of the suggestions are heavily polarized in today's society. I would have liked more than a narrative.

Historia
The American public's introduction to nuclear technology was manifested in destruction and death. With Hiroshima and the Cold War still ringing in our ears, our perception of all things nuclear is seen through the lens of weapons development. Nuclear power is full of mind-bending theories, deep secrets, and the misdirection of public consciousness - some deliberate, some accidental. The result of this fixation on bombs and fallout is that the development of a non-polluting, renewable energy source stands frozen in time.

the history is a bit too much
Revisado: 06-30-21
the story was good overall but I would have liked to hear more about contemporary reactor designs and public opinion rather than a closer look at the theory leading up to the discovery of the nuclear reactor.

Historia
The Age of Surveillance Capitalism is neither a hand-wringing narrative of danger and decline nor a digital fairy tale. Rather, it offers a deeply reasoned and evocative examination of the contests over the next chapter of capitalism that will decide the meaning of information civilization in the 21st century. The stark issue at hand is whether we will be the masters of information and machines or its slaves.

Boring and Over-complicated
Revisado: 03-11-21
The content is cool but the author keeps using big words just to use big words. The unnecessary jargon alongside the dry, monotone presenting voice makes me want to sleep rather than engage with the material. It's unfortunate since the topic is so necessary in today's world.

Historia
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Nelson Mandela is one of the great moral and political leaders of our time: an international hero whose lifelong dedication to the fight against racial oppression in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. Since his triumphant release in 1990 from more than a quarter-century of imprisonment, Mandela has been at the center of the most compelling and inspiring political drama in the world.
