History of Havana: Cuba Libre!
Summary
Get to know the ups and downs of Havana. Are you planning to visit Havana for your next vacation or to cool off your brain as you learn about Havana’s culture and history? Have you heard many confusing stories about Havana, or worse still, learned for several weeks without getting the real picture of Havana in your previous learning escapades? This audiobook, History of Havana: Cuba Libre! Havana’s History from Christopher Columbus to Fidel Castro, by Carlos Fernando Alvarez, is the right resource to quench your historical thirst on Havana. This audiobook details the discovery and establishment of Havana and shows the people behind Havana’s establishment and the specific timelines. It also captures the location, the colonial masters, and the activities therein. Havana was and still is one of the most strategic and adventurous city in the world. Havana has a lot of history to give to the world. Despite the difficulties, Havana was and still is able to compete with other major cities. As I said in this audiobook, the economic experts estimate that tourism will be able to produce 12 percent of the country’s total GDP. This could be true, if a saying by the former president (Fidel Castro) is anything by which to go. Fidel Castro said tourism could save Cuba as a country. In 2008, an all-time high tourism record tipped to nearly 2.7 billion. With the emergence of foreign investors, primarily investing in the hospitality industry, the tourism index is set to rise to new levels. More income will be required though to take care of the city’s infrastructure. The city is having a face-lift to attain the status of a modern tourist destination hub, with around 10 percent under rehabilitation. There is still more work that needs attention in order to reap maximum benefits from tourism.

Summary: 12 Rules for Life
Summary
A comprehensive summary of the book 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, by Jordan B. Peterson. Jordan B. Peterson’s 12 Rules for Life is quite thought provoking. The Canadian clinical psychologist puts forth his ideas about personality, being, existence; the interconnectedness of order and chaos, two forces evident in all of life; the gender roles assignment discourse; the source of the world’s greatest evils; and many other controversial topics. It is refreshing, and sometimes confusing, how he weaves biblical accounts and characters into the telling of his stories. But what might raise the hairs of most are his views on political correctness regarding postmodernism, white privilege, cultural appropriation, and everything in between. One thing is clear about Peterson. He is a man unapologetic for his views, which are largely unpopular, closely conservative, and politically incorrect. This audiobook contains a comprehensive, well-detailed summary and key takeaways of the original book by Jordan B. Peterson. It summarizes the book in detail to help people effectively understand, articulate, and imbibe the original work by Peterson. This audiobook is not meant to replace the original book, but to serve as a companion to it. Contained you will find: Executive summary of the original book Key points of each chapter Brief chapter-by-chapter summaries Disclaimer: This is a summary review of the book 12 Rules for Life and not the original book.
