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.

SUMMARY
=======
Bionovo (NASDAQ: BNVI.OB) was an American biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of botanically derived treatments for women's health and cancer based in Emeryville, California. The company had two drug candidates in U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clinical trials- Menerba (formerly known as MF101) a selective estrogen receptor beta agonist for hot flashes associated with menopause and Bezielle (formerly BZL101) for advanced breast cancer. The company has ceased activity and its stock, although still listed, not moved from 0,00 USD since the end of 2012. No statement has been made by the management, nor any indication has been given that the company is still active. The last press statement was about the sell of all the technical equipment and lay off of 90% of the staff. In short words, the company is as good as bankrupted and shut down, although the management never officially admitted it.
