Story4.5 out of 5 stars 65
Daniel Levin was at his office when he got a call from an acquaintance with an urgent, cryptic request to meet in Paris. A young man had gone missing in Syria. No government, embassy, or intelligence agency would help. Could he? Would he? So begins a suspenseful, shocking, and at times brutal true story of one man’s search to find a missing person in Syria over twenty tense days.

I liked it but it was brutal as far as the senseless violence against women and children.
An awful place to be and to be kidnapped knowing that the US government officials will do little to help those poor souls that are victims of gangs and corrupt officials. Thanks God there are individuals like Daniel Levin who can help.

Overall is ok. I recommend reading the book. He refers to diagrams and I keep shouting this is an audible not a book. Is interesting and now I have to purchase the book or look for videos of The author.

Reviewed: 09-23-20
The point is we eat because of a hunger or emptiness we are trying-to fulfilled. It is not food. Shocker! The stories are great just too much. So you get help but what techniques and strategies should you plan once you received therapy? Is okay.

He is an incredible human being but the story was lacking.
Reviewed: 09-09-20
I wanted to get this book to learn to ask the right questions and in the beginning he touched upon it but not too much in depth.
The story is a lot about his biography and he is very impressive but I wanted to get more-where’s the beef?
Is ok but it would have been better if he gave examples and situation for everyday situations not about Hillary and politics.

Robert Iger became CEO of The Walt Disney Company in 2005, during a difficult time. Competition was more intense than ever, and technology was changing faster than at any time in the company’s history. His vision came down to three clear ideas: Recommit to the concept that quality matters, embrace technology instead of fighting it, and think bigger - think global - and turn Disney into a stronger brand in international markets.

Interesting story on how he became the CEO of Disney
Reviewed: 07-27-20
He went up the ladder by hard work, luck and circumstances. After the story I had a lot of respect for him. He dealt with the Roseanne disaster and the 2 year boy getting killed at Disney-world. He was very frank about his struggle, divorce and his one time panic attack.
He talked a lot about mergers dealing with Steve Jobs and how they became friends. He comes across as a sincere and good human being.

Throughout human history, certain drinks have done much more than just quench thirst. As Tom Standage relates with authority and charm, six of them have had a surprisingly pervasive influence on the course of history, becoming the defining drink during a pivotal historical period. A History of the World in 6 Glasses tells the story of humanity from the Stone Age to the 21st century through the lens of beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and cola.

I love the history of things but he’s monotone voice and there is very little summary that you are overwhelmed by so much information.
I listened to the beer, wine and coffee origins. I had to force myself to continue. Sorry this audible didn’t
