Don't Kiss Them Goodbye is an audio book written by Allison DuBois.

Her visions have helped solve crimes; her instincts have helped find missing people; she can predict future events and sense your thoughts. These are some of the extraordinary gift that define the remarkable Allison DuBois, the real-life medium, wife, and mother whose life is the inspiration for the hit NBC television series Medium.

When she was six years old, Allison's deceased great-grandfather came to her with a message for her mother: "I am okay, I am still with you. Tell your mom there's no pain. " Allison shared his comforting words with her mother and thus began a lifetime of creating connections between loved ones and those they have lost. The purpose of her gifts became clear when Allison worked as an intern in the homicide bureau of the district attorney's office and found that she visualized the crime as she handled the evidence. Allison now works as a profiler on criminal investigations.

In this stunning audiobook, Allison shares fascinating stories of her encounters with people who have passed and her adventures as a profiler for various law enforcement organizations. With wit and compassion, Allison shows us what it is like to live with these special gifts and talents and also tells about her struggle to live a normal life as a devoted wife and mother.

If you have ever questioned whether there is an afterlife, this audiobook will help you see that there is a living energy beyond death.

Discover Your Sales Strengths is an audio book written by Benson Smith and Tony Rutigliano.

In the ever-changing world of sales, there is no single, surefire, tried-and-true method that can be readily imitated by anyone to miraculously improve performance. In fact, the world's best salespeople are not characterized at all by their technique. But they do share one common trait: Successful sales reps use their individual aptitudes to succeed in their work environment.

Discover Your Sales Strengths is an extraordinary program built upon the concept that every person already possesses the tools necessary to become an amazing salesperson. Grounded in extensive Gallup research conducted over 40 years and based on hundreds of thousands of interviews with sales managers, salespeople, and consumers, it teaches individuals to focus on personal strengths and talents, and them guides them to transform those assets into solid sales skills - and successful careers.

For four decades, The Gallup Organization has been gathering information and offering data-driven advice-conducting millions of interviews, compiling thousands of statistics, and building a wealth of facts about what really makes people successful (and happy) in their fields. Now Gallup uses its expertise to offer a unique, interactive StrengthsFinder.com Profile that will identify your top five talents and character traits-and help you start getting the most from them in your sales career.

Debunking the most-repeated myths about sales-from the myth that anyone can sell to the myth that a good salesperson can sell anything - Discover Your Sales Strengths shows you:

-How to understand your top five talents in sales-and focus on the ones that will help you most effectively plan your career
-How to use your strengths to have an impact on other people-and gain a competitive advantage
-How to find the right field, the right company, and the right boss for your talents
-Why different approaches to the same sale can both succeed. (There is no one right way to sell!)

A book that only The Gallup Organization could create, Discover Your Sales Strengths offers you a powerful new knowledge of who you are, what you're good at, and how you work best. And in today's world of sales, that is the most powerful tool of all.

The End of Poverty, Economic Possibilities for Our Time is an audio book written by Jeffrey Sachs.

Hailed by Time as one of the world’s one-hundred most influential people, Jeffrey Sachs is world-renowned for his work around the globe advising economies in crisis. He has advised a broad range of world leaders and international institutions on the challenges of hyperinflation, disease, post-communist transition, and extreme poverty.

Now, at last, he draws on all he has learned from twenty-five years of work to offer a uniquely informed vision of the keys to economic success in the world today and the steps that are necessary to achieve prosperity for all.

Marrying vivid, passionate storytelling with profound, rigorous analysis, Jeffrey Sachs first lays out a clear conceptual map of the world economy. He explains why, over the past two hundred years, wealth has diverged across the planet and why the poorest nations have so far been unable to improve their lot.

He explains how to arrive at an in-depth diagnosis of a country’s economic challenges and the options it faces. He leads readers along the same learning path he himself followed, telling the stories of his own work in Bolivia, Poland, Russia, India, China, and Africa as a way to bring readers with him to a deep understanding of the challenges faced by developing countries in different parts of the world.

Finally, he offers an integrated set of solutions to the interwoven economic, political, environmental, and social problems that most challenge the world’s poorest societies and, indeed, the world.
