JOHN LITTLE SIGNS AGREEMENT TO READ THE GREATEST MINDS AND IDEAS OF ALL TIME FOR CALIFORNIA-BASED AUDIO PARTNERS

Continuing on in the vanguard of “a healthy mind in a healthy body,” Max Contraction creator John Little together with the estate of Will and Ariel Durant have signed an agreement with the prestigious California-based audio publishing company, The Audio-Partners Publishing Corporation, to have audio adaptations made of philosopher/historian Will Durant’s most important books. The first release (now available in all bookstores) is Durant’s The Greatest Minds And Ideas Of All Time, a title that was edited by Little for publishing giant Simon and Schuster, and of which a Booklist review said:

“This compact work is a gem that elevates historical writing to the level of superb literature.”

By way of background on the title, Will Durant devoted his life to studying the most significant eras, individuals, and achievements of human history and here presents his summation of the best of world history – from “The 100 Best Books for an Education” to “The 10 Greatest Thinkers,” “The 10 Greatest Poets,” “The 10 Peaks of Human Progress” and “12 Vital Dates in World History.” Filled with Durant’s renowned wit, knowledge, and unique ability to explain events in simple and exciting terms, it is a concise liberal arts education. Little is considered the world’s foremost authority on the life, work, and philosophy of Will Durant, in addition to being an award-winning documentary filmmaker and author of works on philosophy and health. The Greatest Minds and Ideas of All Time is the first audio book in the series and the first to be read exclusively by Little. Remaining publications in the audio series will feature other audio talent with selected introductions voiced by Little. The Greatest Minds and Ideas of All Time is now available wherever audio books are sold, as is the book of the same title.
