The Theological Tractates by Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius audiobook. Genre: philosophy Enter the austere, luminous mind of Boethius and follow one of the late antique world’s great thinkers as he brings classical reason to bear on the deepest questions of faith. In The Theological Tractates, Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius moves beyond aphorism to sustained, crystalline argument: what is the nature of God and the Trinity, how do divine foreknowledge and human freedom coexist, what is the origin of evil, and on what grounds can the soul claim immortality? These essays combine the precision of a logician with the piety of a believer, using dialectic to illuminate doctrine and to translate complex theological mysteries into rigorous, intelligible discourse. The audiobook invites listeners to savor the patient clarity of Boethius’s reasoning, to eavesdrop on a mind that shaped medieval thought and still speaks to contemporary concerns about providence, responsibility, and the meaning of the good. Whether you come for historical insight, philosophical challenge, or spiritual reflection, this recording renders a foundational bridge between classical philosophy and Christian theology—an essential listen for anyone who wants to trace the origins of Western metaphysical and theological debate.

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
