    This book contains the following 4 titles: 
    - Decoding Animal Minds: The question of whether animals possess consciousness has intrigued philosophers, scientists, and animal lovers for centuries. Consciousness, often described as the awareness of one's thoughts, feelings, and surroundings, is a concept that has been challenging to define, even in humans. When applied to animals, the puzzle becomes even more complex, as humans must contend with species whose mental processes are vastly different, yet still intriguing. 
    - The World's Youngest Criminal Genius: In the annals of crime, there are few figures as captivating or as puzzling as Michael McCrudden, often dubbed "The World's Youngest Criminal Genius." This title, given by the media and sensationalized through various reports, paints a picture of a brilliant, almost calculating young mind who orchestrated elaborate criminal schemes before reaching adulthood. But who was Michael McCrudden really, and what drove him to the heights of criminality at such a tender age? 
    - The Story of Drugs: Throughout human history, substances have shaped the course of civilizations, influencing not only individual lives but entire societies. From the sacred plants used in ancient religious rituals to the drugs that sparked global trade and conflict, substances have been at the center of some of the most transformative events in human history. 
    - The Most Bizarre Cult Ever: The Pythagorean Cult, founded by the ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras, stands as one of the most mysterious and intriguing movements in history. Emerging in the 6th century BCE, it blended religious, philosophical, and scientific ideals into a unique and complex system that shaped the intellectual landscape of ancient Greece. At the heart of the cult was the figure of Pythagoras, revered as a divine being by his followers.

    Shocking True Crimes can happen in Your Street. 
     
    From acclaimed true crime author and podcaster Emily Webb comes a gripping collection of chilling cases from Australia and beyond. This volume delves into both well-known and obscure crimes, revealing the dark underbelly lurking beneath seemingly peaceful neighbourhoods. 
     
    In 1977, the murder of an Australian nurse living in Texas shocked the community and remains unsolved to this day. In 1950, the disappearance of a Melbourne woman led to the largest search of its time, only for her husband to later confess to disposing of her body under dubious circumstances. 
     
    The book also examines decades of baby abductions from hospitals, suburban homes, and public streets, highlighting the vulnerability of the most innocent among us. The still-unsolved murder of elderly "gentleman grocer" Frank Newbery in Newcastle serves as a chilling reminder of the darkness that can lurk in the most familiar places. 
     
    In the 1950s, a cricket match in suburban Adelaide turned into a scene of terror when a gunman opened fire, fatally shooting one player and injuring another. In 1973, during a bustling football game at Adelaide Oval, 11-year-old Joanne Ratcliffe and 4-year-old Kirste Gordon vanished without a trace, their disappearances haunting the community to this day 
     
    Murder in the Suburbs is a compelling reminder that even the most tranquil street can harbor dark secrets. These true accounts will leave you questioning the safety of the world just outside your door. 
     
     
    ‘Webb certainly whets the appetite for more reading around these cases … A solid addition to any true crime lover’s bookshelf.’ GLAM 
     
    ‘Her telling of a range of tales reads as factual, careful and very considered … That doesn't mean that she shies away from explaining what happened to many of these victims, it, fortunately, lacks the sensationalism that can sometimes be found in these sorts of accounts.’ AustralianCrimeFiction.org

    In the digital age, cybersecurity has become one of the most critical aspects of both personal and organizational operations. As technology continues to evolve and more systems become interconnected, the threat landscape has grown increasingly complex. Modern cybersecurity not only addresses the protection of networks and devices but also involves safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data in the face of constantly evolving threats. This chapter provides an overview of what modern cybersecurity entails and the key components that are essential to creating robust defense mechanisms. 
    Cybersecurity today is far more than just installing antivirus software or setting up firewalls. As cybercriminals grow more sophisticated, the need for advanced security frameworks and strategies has never been greater. The introduction of new technologies, like the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI), has expanded the attack surface for cybercriminals, creating more opportunities for exploitation. Attacks now can come from anywhere, targeting not just computers but mobile devices, servers, and even connected appliances. 
    At its core, modern cybersecurity is about understanding the various threats and the methods used by attackers. These threats can range from malware, phishing, and ransomware to more advanced persistent threats (APTs) often launched by state-sponsored actors. The motives behind cyberattacks are diverse, from financial gain and intellectual property theft to causing widespread disruption and damage to critical infrastructure. As these threats become more varied and complex, cybersecurity professionals must constantly adapt and stay ahead of emerging risks. This has led to the creation of more advanced cybersecurity practices, including penetration testing, threat intelligence, and security information and event management (SIEM) systems.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    In 1983, humanity stood on the precipice of nuclear annihilation. Two superpowers—the United States and Soviet Union—held their fingers over the nuclear button, ready to unleash destruction that could end civilization forever. In this moment of unprecedented danger, one man held the fate of the world in his hands. 
    Oleg Gordievsky: The Spy Who Stopped Armageddon tells the extraordinary true story of the Soviet KGB agent who became history's most crucial double agent. Born into a distinguished intelligence family, Oleg was raised to serve the Soviet state without question. But when he witnessed the brutal suppression of Czechoslovakia in 1968, his worldview shattered forever. 
    Working as a double agent for British MI6 while maintaining his cover as a high-ranking KGB officer, Oleg provided intelligence that prevented nuclear war during the most dangerous moments of the Cold War. When NATO's "Able Archer 83" military exercise pushed the Soviets to the brink of launching a preemptive nuclear strike, it was Oleg's critical intelligence that averted global catastrophe. 
    This gripping narrative reveals the human cost of heroism—the family destroyed, the life sacrificed, and the moral complexity of betraying one's homeland to save humanity. From the shadowy world of Cold War espionage to a daring escape operation that reads like a thriller, this audiobook exposes how close the world came to ending and celebrates the courage of one man who chose conscience over country. 
    A story of sacrifice, redemption, and the thin line between heroism and treason.
