  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  How deeply have religious traditions shaped your values, assumptions, and worldview even if you consider yourself secular today? Rachel Thornfield explores the profound influence of religious thinking on modern culture, law, and psychology in this illuminating audiobook about hidden foundations. Discover how concepts you consider universal or obvious actually derive from specific religious traditions that became invisible through cultural dominance over centuries. Through historical analysis and cross-cultural comparison, Thornfield reveals the religious origins of ideas about time, morality, human nature, and society that seem self-evident today. Learn how Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and other traditions embedded themselves so thoroughly in Western civilization that their influence goes unrecognized by most people. This guide examines how religious assumptions shape secular institutions including education, government, and science in ways practitioners rarely acknowledge openly. Understand how your deepest beliefs about right and wrong, purpose and meaning, likely trace to theological frameworks whether or not you practice any religion actively. Thornfield provides perspective for both believers and skeptics on how religious heritage continues operating in contemporary life pervasively. Whether you follow a faith tradition or reject religion entirely, this audiobook will transform your understanding of where your ideas actually come from historically. Perfect for anyone interested in the hidden foundations of modern thought, culture, and social organization.

  The science is in: being good is actually good for you. In The Biology of Kindness—the first in a trilogy on the topic of daily wellness—the science of mindfulness and the findings of biology come together to show how kindness and optimism improve overall well-being in profound, organic, and demonstrable ways. Daniel Lumera, an expert in meditation and mindfulness, and Immaculata De Vivo, a preeminent researcher in molecular epidemiology, outline a revolutionary approach to health, longevity, and quality of life—and explain the scientific evidence that supports their work. 
   
   
   
  Identifying five fundamental values and describing six essential strategies for cultivating these values, De Vivo and Lumera chart a practical course for pursuing a long, healthy, and happy life. Along the way they provide the scientific data that reveal the impact such behavior has on biology. The Biology of Kindness offers incontrovertible evidence that what is commonly ascribed to "spiritual" well-being has a clear and direct impact on physical health, helping to buffer premature aging and decrease the incidence of chronic disease. 
   
   
   
  At a time when life seems to be ruled by a desire to get "everything and immediately," Lumera observes, there is a compelling case to be made for the discipline of devotion, dedication, and passion—for the good of the body and soul.

  Winston Churchill was born in a palace and was given a funeral worthy of a king. His family had enjoyed an intimate association with the British monarchy stretching back centuries. As King Edward VIII said of him, "I have never met anyone of royal blood who exemplified in such high degree the ideal of the 'good king.'"Churchill and the Crown tells the story of Churchill's relationship with the various kings and queens he served during his long political career, from young journalist under Edward VII, through his dramatic fall from grace in the First World War under George V, the frustrations of appeasement during the interwar period and his relationship with Edward VIII during the abdication crisis of 1936, culminating in his Finest Hour in the Second World War under George VI and the coda of Churchill's public service to his final monarch: Queen Elizabeth II.Ted Powell analyzes Churchill's writings on monarchy and his role in preserving and establishing monarchies outside Britain. At the core of the book is a series of studies of Churchill's relationships with the monarchs he served. These studies offer a two-way perspective, examining both Churchill's view of individual monarchs and their attitudes towards him. They shed light not only on Churchill's career but also on the changing role of the monarchy in twentieth century Britain.
