Playing for Profit: How Digital Entertainment is Making Big Business Out of Child's Play by Alice Laplante, ISBN 0471296147
A little over a century ago, an intense explosion of technical innovation transformed the way we spent our leisure time. Inventions like the phonograph, television, radio, and motion pictures sparked a revolution in entertainment that captured the hearts and the wallets of the average consumer. In recent years, we ve seen some improvements on these feats: LPs disappeared and made room for CDs, movies were augmented by computer-generated special effects, and video games became a staple for home computers. But for the most part, few modifications have been made to our traditional forms of entertainment for almost 100 years. That s about to change. With the exciting emergence of digital interactivity, we re about to take a huge leap forward, reshaping and reinventing virtually every form of entertainment we know. Veteran technology journalist Alice LaPlante and technology consultant Rich Seidner explain the massive changes in technology, entertainment, and culture...

Grow Younger, Live Longer: Ten Steps to Reverse Aging by Deepak Chopra, ISBN 0375419764
Read by Deepak Chopra
5 CDs/approx. 5 hours
In the tradition of the mega-bestseller "Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Deepak Chopra, M.D., and his colleague David Simon, M.D., present ten practical steps that enable listeners to reset their biological age (which determines how you look and feel) as much as fifteen years lower than their chronological age.
The idea for this book was born in early Spring 2000, when Dr. Chopra was being interviewed on "Larry King Live!. As the conversation turned to aging, Dr. Chopra listed ten steps we can take to reverse its effects. The phones at the television studio and the Chopra Center for Well Being lit up with calls from people wanting to know more. This phenomenal response clearly called for a new audiobook on the topic, and here it is.
At the heart of "Grow Younger, Live Longer is a simple-to-follow program for personal renewal, complete with specific supplements, exercises, and meditation techniques.

The World's Game: A History of Soccer by Bill Murray, ISBN 0252067185
Known as much for the emotional outbursts and violence of its fans as for its own stars, soccer (or football, as it is known outside the United States) is a global game. Its international controlling body, FIFA, boasts more members than the United Nations. Bill Murray traces the growth of what during pre-industrial times was called "the simplest game" through its codification in the nineteenth century to the 1994 World Cup, held for the first time in the United States. Murray weaves the sport's growth into the culture and politics of the countries where it has been taken up, analyzing its reputation as a game that has seen more riots and on-field brawls than all other types of football combined. He vividly illustrates how soccer has become the world's most popular sport, one that has resisted the interference of politicians, dictators, and profiteers and - more recently - the demands of television, through which it has spread to virtually every corner of the globe. The World's Game will...
