Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

=======
Ghulam Murtaza, SI(C) FPAS (Urdu: غلام مرتضى) (born 3 January 1939), is a Pakistani plasma physicist and mathematician. He is the Professor of the Physics at research Centre, known as the Salam Chair in Physics, at the Government College University, while also become the acting Director General of Abdus Salam School of Mathematical Sciences. Previously, Murtaza served as Director National Centre for Mathematics at the Government College University from 2004 to 2006. He was also worked as Director General National Tokamak Fusion Program, PAEC from 2007 to 2008. Specialized in the Thermonuclear fusion, Murtaza is known for his contribution to the field of Theoretical and controlled solar plasmas.Murtaza obtained his DIC & Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from Imperial College London and has held several research positions abroad – Commonwealth Academic Staff Fellow at Oxford University England; Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at Ruhr University, Bochum Germany and a visiting Research Fellow (twice) at Toronto University Canada.
He has more than 57 years of university teaching and research experience and has published well over three hundred research papers in various International Journals of repute. He carries high Citation Index and Journal Impact Factor. For his meritorious performance as a university professor, Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU) promoted him to BPS-21 in March 1993 and then to BPS-22 in July 1998.Murtaza pioneered the important subject of Modern Plasma Physics and Controlled Thermonuclear Fusion in the Country and established Plasma Physics Laboratories at QAU and at CASP GCU, Lahore, which specialize in the investigation of Plasma characteristics in Pinch (Focus) devices. He has supervised a large number of MPhil and PhD students both at QAU Islamabad and GCU Lahore.
In his capacity as Dean at QAU, Murtaza was responsible for executing various research and development programs of the university. Also as Chairman as well as a senior faculty member, he was instrumental in contracting collaborative research programs with other institutions both home and abroad. He has promoted the cause of physics in general and of plasma physics in particular by organizing series of symposia and conferences, both national and regional.
As Salam Chair in Physics at GC University Lahore, Murtaza has been actively engaged in developing the postgraduate program and in strengthening the research activity at the University.
