Major life transitions such as leaving the protected environment of school or starting a new career can be daunting. It is scary to face a wall of choices, knowing that no one is going to tell us if we make the right decision. There is no clearly delineated path or recipe for success. Even figuring out how and where to start can be a challenge. As head of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, Tina Seelig’s job is to guide her students as they make the difficult transition from the academic environment to the professional world.

In this revolutionary guide, Stanford University professor and international best-selling author of inGenius adapts her popular course material to teach everyone how to make imaginative ideas into realities.

Listeners will learn how to work through the four steps of The Invention Cycle: Imagination (envisioning things that do not yet exist), Creativity (applying your imagination to address a challenge), Innovation (applying creativity to generate unique solutions), and Entrepreneurship (applying innovation to bring ideas to fruition, where our ideas then gain the power to inspire the imaginations of others). Using each step to build upon the last, you can create something complex, interesting, and powerful.

Poucos autores foram tão lidos, comentados e traduzidos ao longo dos últimos cem anos quanto Paul Valéry. Contudo, só agora chega ao Brasil uma tradução completa dos seus Feitiços. Trata-se de uma obra que, após a experiência radical de A jovem parca, flutua entre diversas possibilidades poéticas que produziriam obras-primas como "O cemitério marinho", um dos mais famosos poemas do século XX, e outros tantos como "Esboço de serpente", "A Pítia", "Fragmentos do Narciso", "Os passos".

A obra que originou a lenda do Rei Arthur e os Cavaleiros da Távola Redonda, pela primeira vez em audiobook no Brasil, traz as incríveis aventuras do Jovem Arthur, Excalibur, sua subida ao trono, seus fieis (mas nem sempre) cavaleiros, a busca pela imortalidade e a queda de um ícone anglo-saxão.
