  DESCRIPTION: 
  My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English. 
  
  WHAT WILL YOU LEARN 
  - Understand grammar concepts 
  - Learn how to use different vocabulary concepts taught through language-in-use 
  - Learn 21-century skills 
  - Develop deeper understanding of and appreciation for literature 
  - Have clearer pronunciation through a better understanding of phonics

  Secret Societies: Control and...

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  From the dawn of mankind there have been secret societies. Groups of men and women coming together to gain and maintain power for themselves. As populations grew so too did the power and the need to be extremely creative in methods of control. 
   
  Over the centuries there have been a few elite brotherhoods that have developed incredibly subtle and complex ways to manipulate the people. They have invented religions and mysteries; they have seeded revolution and started wars. Literature, plays, fables, movies, games, belief systems and the internet are all weapons in their growing armoury. 
   
  In this book we will explain how these secret societies manipulate mankind. We will delve into the psychology they use to control the way we buy, vote and believe. Everything we do and think is created for us. Even if we believe we are free. And all of this began many thousands of years ago when they created the religions of the globe. The exact same processes used to entice people to believe are now used to manipulate us. But more than that, we will reveal the people behind the creation of Christianity, Islam and more and the hidden secrets that they guard to this day. From Jesus to Buddha, from Muhammad to Zoroaster, the patterns are the same because they were all created by the same elite group. 
   
  They have made history and rewritten it. They hide in plain sight. We have worshipped them from afar. They are our gods, leaders, priests and revolutionaries. They are the secret societies of the globe and this is their story.

  Sulla and Gaius Marius: The...

  Caesar is still remembered for winning a civil war and helping bring about the end of the Roman Republic, leaving a line of emperors in its place, but it’s quite possible that none of what Caesar did would’ve happened without the template for such actions being set 40 years earlier. At the time, when Caesar was in his teens, war was being waged both on the Italian peninsula and abroad, with domestic politics pitting the conservative, aristocratic optimates against the populist, reformist populares, and this tension ultimately escalated into an all-out war. One of the leading populares was Caesar’s uncle, Gaius Marius, a military visionary who had restructured the legions and extended the privileges of land ownership and citizenship to legionaries on condition of successful completion of a fixed term of service. In the late 2nd century BCE, Marius had waged a successful campaign against several Germanic tribes, and after earning eternal fame in the Eternal City, Marius was appointed a consul several times. In 88 BCE, he entered into conflict with his erstwhile protégé, the optimate Sulla, over command of the army to be dispatched against Mithridates VI of Pontus, a long-time enemy of Rome and its Greek allies.   
  	Ironically, Marius’s reforms had made the legions fiercely loyal to their individual generals rather than the state, which allowed Sulla to march his army against Rome and force Marius into exile. With that, Rome’s first civil war was officially underway, but Sulla’s triumph proved short-lived. Just as Sulla departed for a campaign, Marius returned at the head of a scratch army of veterans and mercenaries, taking over the city and purging it of Sulla’s optimate supporters, and though Marius died in 86 BCE, his party remained in power.
