    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    “Pandemics Through Time: The History That Shaped Humanity” is a clear, human story of how diseases and people have shaped each other—from the first crowded cities to the age of jet travel and beyond. Blending vivid history with plain explanations of science, it shows how outbreaks begin, how they spread, how societies respond, and how each crisis leaves behind new tools, new ideas, and new responsibilities. 
    The journey starts in the ancient world, where the Plague of Athens revealed how war and crowding turn illness into disaster, and moves through the Justinianic Plague, where rats, fleas, grain ships, and empire combined to send buboes and fear across continents. It then meets the Black Death, the great turning point that reordered labor, faith, and power in Europe, and taught hard lessons about quarantine, care, and the costs of blame. 
    Crossing oceans, the book shows how smallpox and measles traveled with conquest during the Columbian Exchange, and how Indigenous and African knowledge, along with early variolation and vaccination, began a long fight back. In the nineteenth century, cholera raced through booming cities and forced a revolution in sewers, water, and the birth of epidemiology—John Snow’s map, Joseph Bazalgette’s pipelines, and the first international health rules. Tuberculosis then becomes the mirror of the Industrial Age, revealing how housing, wages, sunlight, and stigma shape a “social disease,” and how sanatoria, X‑rays, and later antibiotics changed fate without erasing inequality.

    The Apocalypse of Mark is a Christian book written in the ancient style of apocalyptic literature designed to read like a short narrative book one would find in the Bible, like Job, Ruth, or Esther. Narrator John Mark presents a linear retelling of the Biblical meta-narrative, heavily quoting from and alluding to the Biblical text. Beginning prior to creation and ending in the "new heavens and earth" incorporating enigmatic Biblical passages, it demonstrates how they are indispensable to the overall redemption story. The text also offers the reader hope by exposing the Gospel of Jesus as the central focus of God's relational plan. The text is packed with theological teachings and shows how they are all interconnected. The author began the project by trying to solve the question, "Where do demons come from?" Bolstered by years of research, he presents his findings in a creative and engaging narrative style.

    A New York Times bestseller and enduring classic, All About Love is the acclaimed first volume in feminist icon bell hooks' ""Love Song to the Nation"" trilogy.  All About Love reveals what causes a polarized society, and how to heal the divisions that cause suffering. Here is the truth about love, and inspiration to help us instill caring, compassion, and strength in our homes, schools, and workplaces. 
    “The word ‘love’ is most often defined as a noun, yet we would all love better if we used it as a verb,” writes bell hooks as she comes out fighting and on fire in All About Love. Here, at her most provocative and intensely personal, renowned scholar, cultural critic and feminist bell hooks offers a proactive new ethic for a society bereft with lovelessness--not the lack of romance, but the lack of care, compassion, and unity. People are divided, she declares, by society’s failure to provide a model for learning to love.  
    As bell hooks uses her incisive mind to explore the question “What is love?” her answers strike at both the mind and heart. Razing the cultural paradigm that the ideal love is infused with sex and desire, she provides a new path to love that is sacred, redemptive, and healing for individuals and for a nation. The Utne Reader declared bell hooks one of the “100 Visionaries Who Can Change Your Life.” All About Love is a powerful, timely affirmation of just how profoundly her revelations can change hearts and minds for the better.
