Story
In February 2018, twenty-four members of Gulchehra Hoja's family disappeared overnight. Her crime – and thus that of her family – was her award-winning investigations on the plight of her people, the Uyghurs, whose existence and culture is being systematically destroyed by the Chinese government. A Stone is Most Precious Where it Belongs is Gulchehra’s stunning memoir, taking us into the everyday world of life under Chinese rule in East Turkestan (more formally as the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China), from her idyllic childhood to its modern nightmare.

Fascinating personal account

After reading the book, I was captivated by the dynamic story of a woman who exemplifies determination and a fierce desire to uncover the truth. What struck me the most was the protagonist's unwavering drive and resilience in the face of adversity. The experiences shared throughout the book are incredibly impactful and thought-provoking. This is a must-read for anyone who is passionate about human rights and social justice issues. Overall, I highly recommend this book for its powerful message and the compelling storytelling that brings it to life.

The basics of being a ScrumMaster are fairly straightforward: At face value, all a ScrumMaster needs to do is facilitate the Scrum process and remove impediments. But being a great ScrumMaster, one who truly embodies the principles of servant-leadership and helps nurture a high-performing team, is much harder and more elusive.

Good content - audio not so good
Reviewed: 10-30-22
With just over 2 hours left, significant reduction in dictation speed. It’s not really correctable with the playback speed. Also, several changes in audio recording are very evident. It’s just no consistent. I find that quite annoying.
