Story
No other topic dominates our attention as much as coronavirus and COVID-19, the infectious disease it triggers. There’s been a global deluge of contradictory opinions, fake news, and politically controlled information. Differing views on the dangers posed by the pandemic have led to deep division and confusion, within governments, society, and even among friends and family. In Corona, False Alarm?, award-winning researchers Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi and Dr. Karina Reiss give clarity to these confusing and stressful times.

Story
Michael Shellenberger has been fighting for a greener planet for decades. He helped save the world’s last unprotected redwoods. He co-created the predecessor to today’s Green New Deal. And he led a successful effort by climate scientists and activists to keep nuclear plants operating, preventing a spike of emissions. But in 2019, as some claimed "billions of people are going to die", contributing to rising anxiety, including among adolescents, Shellenberger decided that he needed to speak out to separate science from fiction.

Story
Why did Justin Trudeau wait so long to restrict flights from China? Why did his top health bureaucrat tell us not to wear face masks? Why is there a loophole in Canada's quarantine laws for illegal border-crossers at Roxham Road? Why did the Liberals gather up Canada’s medical equipment and ship it to China as a gift? And why on Earth did Trudeau give $838,000 to the Wuhan Virology Institute?

Story
John Taylor Gatto's Weapons of Mass Instruction focuses on mechanisms of traditional education which cripple imagination, discourage critical thinking, and create a false view of learning as a byproduct of rote-memorization drills. Gatto's earlier book, Dumbing Us Down, introduced the now-famous expression of the title into the common vernacular. Weapons of Mass Instruction adds another chilling metaphor to the brief against conventional schooling.

Publisher's Summary
Lizards Eat Butterflies unveils David Martin’s deepest passion about how we’re living on this planet and how we could do so much more to improve our experience with a shift in perspective. In a triumph of cutting-edge science, social commentary, and deeply personal life experience, he shows us that, with an alteration in perspective, that which stands in the way of our humanity is an illusion that can be eradicated.
Far from being a 12-step program - this is the un-program in 12 sections - Lizards Eat Butterflies deconstructs the myths that trap us into victimhood, isolation, and futility. Having traveled the world for three decades of work and with the worldwide film success of Future Dreaming, along with many lectures and workshops, he weaves the narrative of this book to create a tapestry of provoking, thoughtful, and considered reexaminations of our dominant myths and perspective impairments. Lizards is a practical conversation starter to defuse the explosive challenges of inadequacy, indifference, and apathy.

Book was quite interesting, but narrator was monotone....
This book was an interesting listen, but probably a better read. The narrator was completely monotone which made it hard to appreciate the humor or stories the author was trying to convey. Maybe read instead.

Break Out
If one was ever dissatisfied with ones ability to accurately access changes in the world around oneself, this book may be of value. The first chapter attacks many "sacred cows" of modernity and may be a put-off for many readers. This is a way David uses to identify areas of ones life that may be contributing to ones dissatisfaction with life. After that, he focuses in on eight myths that have kidnapped many in our western world and thus opens up possible areas for re-evaluating how we think and thus live life. Peace

Please Listen to this Book
Few books in my life have impacted me as deeply and as quickly as this book. If you were on a journey of discovery questioning not only the nature of the world around you but your own personal story I highly suggest that you engage with this book with open ears open heart and willing to gain insight and perspective that you may be lacking. Namaste.

I won't be finishing, but you may like it.
First rule of writing: Know your audience, the author uses terms like isomorphism, then explains the terms as if his audience couldn't deduce the meaning by the context (rather degrading). Use of voice and humor are present, but the narrative is fairly monotony makes it dry.

a rare gem
Every once in a while, you encounter a book that challenges your most fundamental beliefs in consensus reality and your purpose in life. Even more rare is a book like that with a healthy dose of humor and a few expletives thrown in. This is such a book.
