One of the best ways to absorb knowledge is listening to Audio books. Well, the name is somewhat paradoxical, as we have all learnt to associate books with the printed matter and find it difficult to imagine a book in an audio form. Well, audio books are the way to go these days when time is at a premium. The conventional book may be good enough if you are at home and want to spend some quite time with your favourite book, but when you are on the move, the printed book is not of much use. I can hear you saying that you always read when you are travelling. Of course you do. But then, is it such a good experience? The honest answer would be no. Reading on the move is an uncomfortable experience. The constant cacophony of the surrounding scenery added to the jerky movements of the vehicle you are travelling in makes it a forgettable experience. And from a medical point of view, it causes eye strain. From a logistic point of view, books eat up space at home and if you are an avid reader, you will soon find your home overflowing with books. 
Happy Listening !
