Binaural beats are an auditory phenomenon that occurs when two slightly different frequencies are presented to each ear, creating the perception of a third frequency—a "beat"—within the brain. This beat is not an actual sound but a result of the brain interpreting the difference between the two frequencies. This process can influence brainwave activity, guiding the mind into various states, such as relaxation, focus, or deep sleep.

Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

Made Hiking Easer for This Novice Hiker
As a novice day hiker, taking on some of the trails in the national parks was scary, to say the least. But the adventure of exploring the diverse landscapes here at home was too great a pull to be ignored. This audiobook offers invaluable insights for me, from simplifying route planning to suggestions on fitness to packing essentials to adhering to Leave No Trace principles; it covers all bases. I started hiking for the peace being in nature brings, so having this reference to take the stress out of hiking in places like Yosemite has been wonderful.
