I appreciate the heavily researched and clearly delineated history of food in its natural and processed state, and, the impact of these foods on the human body, society, and, the ecosystem. Though there is some technical jargon, the vast majority of the information is laid out in plain English nearly everyone can understand.
I have spent a lifetime experimenting with different diets and am deeply interested in human nutrition. I am a mostly Whole Foods vegan and use minor supplementation. I appreciate that the author has offered all sides of the conversation and discussed in clear terms the outcomes of the various dietary systems.
I would recommend this book to anyone, whatever their dietary choices, interested in understanding, step by step, the sources of the food we eat and its outcome on human and societal health.

A fascinating look at Truman Capote’s social life, focusing in his circle of high society “Swans.” Highly recommended.

I have taken several of Dr. Greenberg’s courses and have enjoyed them all! Concert Masterworks provides a fantastic overview of many of classical music’s most beloved pieces. It also allows Robert Greenberg to flex his muscle as a composer and music historian. I love that Audible is offering Great Courses!

If you love indie Brit-Rock this is the book for you! Though born in America, I have had an enduring love affair with all things British!especially the music. Beatles, Bowie, Smiths Oasis, and the notorious Libertines have been staples of my life since I was a young girl in the Mid-west of America and remains today overlooking Los Angeles. Alan McGee is a dream-weaver!a hit-maker, and one hell of a story-teller. His brother does a great job with the reading and I would recommend this book to anyone who loves Brit-rock. Highly recommended!

I have been following David Mitchell since the Peep Show. This book is well-written and well-read by the man himself! I love his insightful, dry wit and highly recommend this audio book.

I grew up on Woody Allen films and have seen every film, many several times. So this book was an absolute pleasure to listen to!especially since Woody himself did the narration. In addition to discussing his past,his passions, and his films, he also talks at length about the long debunked accusations against him orchestrated by Mia Farrow, he also shares details of his life with his wife and children. Woody Allen fans will definitely enjoy this audio book.

I sampled several offerings in this genre before settling on Hit Makers to purchase and consume and boy am I glad I did! This is a true gem; erudite, fast-paced, filled with brilliant insights including plenty of examples of what works, what does not, and, most importantly, why and why not! The text is delivered in a crisp, engaging manner. There are fact-based and profound revelations sprinkled liberally throughout the book. It is not often one hears the term “page-turner” attached to a non-fiction work but this is the audio version of that for me. I am a Talent Manager/Producer/Screenwriter in Hollywood (formerly a musician and painter) and can say that this audio book has provided me with valuable information I can directly apply to my profession. Hit Makers is definitely a Hit with me! Very Highly Recommended!
