The Hitler Book The Hitler Book Publisher: Tantor Media; Unabridged (January 29, 2006) | ISBN: 1400152038 | Language English | Audio CD in MP3/128Kbps | 723 MB Joseph Stalin had never been able to shake off the nightmare of Adolf Hitler. Just as in 1941 he refused to understand that Hitler had broken their non-aggression pact, he was in 1945 unwilling to believe that the dictator had committed suicide in the debris of the Berlin bunker. In his paranoia, Stalin ordered his secret police, the NKVD, precursor to the KGB, to explore in detail every last vestige of the private life of the only man he considered a worthy opponent, and to clarify beyond doubt the circumstances of his death. For months two captives of the Soviet Army-Otto Guensche, Hitler's adjutant, and Heinz Linge, his personal valet-were interrogated daily, their stories crosschecked, until the NKVD were convinced that they had the fullest possible account of the life of the Furher. In 1949 they presented their work, in a single copy, to Stalin. It is as remarkable for the depth of its insight into Adolf Hitler-from his specific directions to Linge as to how his body was to be burned, to his sense of humor-as for what it does not say, reflecting the prejudices of the intended reader: Joseph Stalin. Nowhere, for instance, does the dossier criticize Hitler's treatment of the Jews. Today, the 413-page original of Stalin's personal biography of Hitler is a Kremlin treasure and it is said to be held in President Putin's safe. The only other copy, made by order of Stalin's successor, Nikita Khrushchev, in 1959, was deposited in Moscow Party archives under the code number 462A. It was there that Henrik Eberle and Matthias Uhl, two German historians, found it. Available to the public in full for the first time, The Hitler Book presents a captivating, astonishing, and deeply revealing portrait of Hitler, Stalin, and the mutual antagonism of these two dictators, who between them wrought devastation on the European continent."An astonishingly intimate portrait" of the Furher-commissioned by, written for, and read by Joseph Stalin, before it disappeared into Soviet archives. Until now. -The Times"This revelatory document was an extraordinary find and gives an absorbing, truly disturbing, account of Hitler and his demonic court."-Publishers Weekly Getting to Yes Getting to Yes Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio; Unabridged (May 3, 2011) | ISBN: 1442339527 | Language English | Audio CD in MP3/43 kbps | 124 MB LEARN THE SECRET TO From Mao to Market: Rent Seeking, Local Protectionism, and Marketization in China From Mao to Market: Rent Seeking, Local Protectionism, and Marketization in China English | ISBN: 0521809606 | 2003 | 292 pages | PDF | 2,1 MB Head First 2D Geometry Head First 2D Geometry ISBN-10: 059680833X | 2010 | PDF | 354 pages | 16,5 MB Having trouble with geometry?

Real-Time Systems: Formal Specification and Automatic Verification Real-Time Systems: Formal Specification and Automatic Verification English | ISBN: 0521883334 | 2008 | 344 pages | PDF | 1,7 MB The Sociopath Next Door The Sociopath Next Door Publisher: Tantor Media; Unabridged edition (June 1, 2005) | ISBN: 1400101565 | Language English | Audio CD in MP3 + M4B | 430 MB + 371 MB Who is the devil you know?Is it your lying, cheating ex-husband?Your sadistic high school gym teacher?Your boss who loves to humiliate people in meetings?The colleague who stole your idea and passed it off as her own?In the pages of The Sociopath Next Door, you will realize that your ex was not just misunderstood. He's a sociopath. And your boss, teacher, and colleague? They may be sociopaths too.We are accustomed to think of sociopaths as violent criminals, but in The Sociopath Next Door, Harvard psychologist Martha Stout reveals that a shocking 4 percent of ordinary people-one in twenty-five-has an often undetected mental disorder, the chief symptom of which is that that person possesses no conscience. He or she has no ability whatsoever to feel shame, guilt, or remorse. One in twenty-five everyday Americans, therefore, is secretly a sociopath. They could be your colleague, your neighbor, even family. And they can do literally anything at all and feel absolutely no guilt.How do we recognize the remorseless? One of their chief characteristics is a kind of glow or charisma that makes sociopaths more charming or interesting than the other people around them. They're more spontaneous, more intense, more complex, or even sexier than everyone else, making them tricky to identify and leaving us easily seduced. Fundamentally, sociopaths are different because they cannot love. Sociopaths learn early on to show sham emotion, but underneath they are indifferent to others' suffering. They live to dominate and thrill to win.The fact is, we all almost certainly know at least one or more sociopaths already. Part of the urgency in reading The Sociopath Next Door is the moment when we suddenly recognize that someone we know-someone we worked for, or were involved with, or voted for-is a sociopath. But what do we do with that knowledge? To arm us against the sociopath, Dr. Stout teaches us to question authority, suspect flattery, and beware the pity play. Above all, she writes, when a sociopath is beckoning, do not join the game.It is the ruthless versus the rest of us, and The Sociopath Next Door will show you how to recognize and defeat the devil you know. |
