Synopsis

The Babees' Book: Medieval Manners for the Young offers a captivating glimpse into the etiquette and cultural norms of medieval society. Through a rich tapestry of poems, treatises, and instructional texts, this anthology unravels themes of courtesy and social conduct that were paramount to the education of youth in the Middle Ages. The collection embodies a range of literary styles, from the lyrical to the didactic, capturing the intricate dance of medieval life. Key pieces within the anthology shed light on the meticulous codes of behavior that shaped young minds, offering timeless reflections on respect and decorum without anchor to a singular voice, but rather through a complementary chorus of medieval thought. Helmed by the esteemed Frederick James Furnivall, a prominent figure in the study of early English literature, this anthology draws on the diverse works of unknown scribes and scholars. Furnivall's expert curation brings together a selection reflective of various historical and cultural strains within medieval society. Through the myriad contributions, the anthology aligns with the broader historical context of growing literacy and the gradual formalization of societal roles, portraying these historical voices as vital narrators of the young medieval experience, each contributing uniquely to the theme. The Babees' Book serves as a crucial portal into the past, beckoning readers to immerse themselves in a world both distant and familiar. For scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike, this collection offers a unique opportunity to explore a multiplicity of perspectives under one cover. Its educational value lies in the deep insights and the rich dialogue engendered between the works, encouraging readers to appreciate the complexity of past social mores and the underlying lessons that resonate across generations.

    Through the Magic Door by great mystery writer Arthur Conan Doyle is about Doyle's favorite books and the intelligent minds behind them. Excerpt: "I care not how humble your bookshelf may be, nor how lowly the room which it adorns. Close the door of that room behind you, shut off with it all the cares of the outer world, plunge back into the soothing company of the great dead, and then you are through the magic portal into that fair land whither worry and vexation can follow you no more. You have left all that is vulgar and all that is sordid behind you. There stand your noble, silent comrades, waiting in their ranks."

    WE ARE LIVING AT A CRITICAL POINT IN OUR HISTORY, and our human civilization as we know it is on the verge of a radical transformation. 
    In our attempt to regain that lost paradise, we can become obsessed with regaining a sense of security, even if for only a brief moment. The problem with that longing is that we often look in the wrong places. We learn, all too often, that most things that society promises will bring us happiness never really live up to expectations. The moral compass that defines our Western societies seems to spin toward decadence; people move away from patriotism, religion, and family values, while falling prey to ideologies that are the antithesis of those traditions. Then we find that intolerance, violence, anti-family agendas, and an overall lack of a moral compass lead us to a spiral into nowhere. 
    This book promises to free you from the mental prison we've been subjected to; you will finally be able to reclaim your true self, as well as:Discover who really rules the world and why.Uncover the great deception you've been subjected to in all aspects of life.Open your perspective to unknown dimensions.Regain control of your mind through critical thinking.Discover your truth and expand your consciousness to the unimaginable.Reconnect with your true, infinite self.Tap into the power of love to attain abundance and total freedom. 
    With A World of Illusions, I INVITE YOU TO JOIN OUR REVOLUTION─the revolution of awakened souls.

    A mid-level drug trafficker and self-proclaimed low-life with a big vocabulary comes to terms with his actions and his mental health. 
     
     
     
    Andrew Brobyn's relationship was in shambles before he took the terrible acid that sent him on an almost decade-long journey seeking redemption. His immediate plans following university were to liquidate his illicit assets, sell his client list, pack up shop, and retire to his parents' home in Toronto, while he figured out what to do with a bachelor's degree in philosophy and a quarter million in cash. As his drug use and bipolar disorder spiral, his situation gets stranger and stranger, taking him from his university campus to strip clubs, psych wards, and the slammer. 
     
     
     
    Equal parts hilarious and terrifying, Babble On is a psycho-philosophical memoir that tracks Brobyn as he navigates the consequences of his eccentric choices and struggles with profound ambivalence toward his own health and well-being.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Many doctors in Germany were convinced that they were the chosen people to create a healthy, racially pure Volkskörper (body of people) and by doing so, establish a racial utopia. As strong supporters of National Socialism, they welcomed the founding of the Third Reich. After Hitler acceded to power, German physicians joined the SS in particular. During the twelve years of the Nazi era, seven percent of German doctors became members of the SS. The average membership of the population was only 0.6 percent. Moreover, doctors were also overrepresented as a profession, with teachers consisting of less than half a percent and musicians only three percent. Only lawyers had a larger share in the SS than doctors. 
    The average income of German doctors increased extremely after 1933, even exceeding the income of lawyers. The Nazi doctors of the human experiments also joined the SS in large numbers. German doctors were far more reluctant to join the NSDAP than the SS. Before 1933, only seven percent of all German doctors joined the NSDAP (Nazi party). They joined the party when it seemed opportune to do so, in 1933, and particularly in 1937. In 1933, physicians made up almost a quarter of all academic professionals in the NSDAP. Most doctors joined the NSDAP in 1937, with a membership rate of 43 percent of the total profession. German physicians sat on the fence during the first years of the Nazi era, insecure about the effects of the new regime on their profession. By 1937, the Third Reich had won the trust of several reasons. The NSDAP had solved the economic crisis and had reorganized the medical profession. Moreover, the regime had solved “the Jewish question” in the medical sector.
