  1742: the famous dome atop Saint Peter's Basilica, designed by Michelangelo, is fractured and threatened with collapse. The dome is the pride of Italy and the largest of its kind anywhere in the world. And no one knows how to fix it. 
   
   
   
  This engaging and colorful narrative tells the overlooked story of how Michelangelo's Dome was saved from disaster by three mathematicians and Pope Benedict XIV, who had asked them for help. It is a gripping story of decisive leadership, crisis management, and scientific innovation, and the resistance that was faced when sailing into the headwinds of conventional thought. 
   
   
   
  In Saving Michelangelo's Dome, Stanford-trained engineer Wayne Kalayjian illustrates how new ideas in science and mathematics established an entirely new way of looking at the world—as well as solving its complex problems. In the end, listeners will appreciate that in saving Michelangelo's Dome from collapse, these three mathematicians and one determined pope unknowingly invented the profession of engineering as we practice it today. With it, they transformed the architectural world and ushered in generations of future buildings and structures that, otherwise, would never have been built.

  A Grateful Dead concert, Ray Robertson argues, is life. 
   
   
   
  Like life, it can be alternately compelling and lackluster; familiar and foreign; occasionally sublime and sometimes insipid. Although the Grateful Dead stopped the day Jerry Garcia's heart did, what the band left behind is the next best thing to being there in the third row, courtesy of the group's unorthodox decision to record all of their concerts. Meaning that it's possible to follow the band's evolution (and devolution) through their shows, from the R&B-based garage band at the beginning, to the jazz-rock conjurers at their creative peak, to the lumbering monolith of their decline. 
   
   
   
  In All the Years Combine: The Grateful Dead in Fifty Shows, Robertson listens to and writes ecstatically about fifty of the band's most important and memorable concerts in order to better understand who the Grateful Dead were, what they became, and what they meant—and what they continue to mean.

  Edvard Munch - The Scream and...

  Edvard Munch (1863-1944), a Norwegian painter involved in Expressionism, was so attached to his work that he called his paintings his children, which is rather unsurprising given that they were deeply personal. Indeed, Munch expressed much of his own inner turmoil through his art, particularly in the earlier part of his career. He painted not what he saw, but what he felt when he saw it, allowing his morbidity and illness to imbue his paintings with a sombre tone. These darker paintings, including his famous The Scream, endured and would greatly influence German Expressionism.

  The Scarlet Plague

  A world wiped out. A survivor who remembers. A warning that feels eerily close to our own.
  Set in a devastated future, The Scarlet Plague follows an old man guiding his grandsons through the ruins of a once-thriving civilization. As they wander the empty landscape, he recounts the terrifying plague that swept across the globe—how society crumbled overnight, how fear replaced order, and how humanity was forced back to primitive survival.
  
  Praised as "one of the earliest and most chilling visions of global collapse," Jack London's novella blends suspense, stark beauty, and unsettling realism. Its portrait of fragility, resilience, and the lessons forgotten by future generations remains strikingly relevant.
  
  If you enjoy dystopian fiction, survival stories, and classics that echo with modern resonance, this powerful tale will grip your imagination.
  
  Open the book—and walk through a world where one plague changed everything.
