  This special version of The Golden Tractate includes both the full audiobook in addition to an "ambient version" with relaxing medieval music. 
  "The golden tractate" (Aureus) by Hermes Trismegistus is a classic text of Hermetic and ancient Philosophy about natural and divine magic; it will strongly influence the later Alchemic literature. 
  The Golden Tractate of Hermes, first created in the Renaissance and rendered into English in 1850, is one of a number of texts from its era attempting to explain alchemy, along with the works of Pontanus and Artephius. Through a veil of symbolism it attempts to inform the reader of the process of creating Ixir, and thus the universal medicine of alchemy. 
  Hermes Trismegistus is a legendary Hellenistic period figure that originated as a syncretic combination of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth.

  The Golden Sayings of Epictetus

  'Asked, "Who is the rich man?" Epictetus replied, "He who is content."'
  
  A stunning compilation of meditations, conversations and aphorisms from the renowned Stoic philosopher, Epictetus.
  
  Initially born into slavery, Epictetus knew first-hand the true meaning of suffering. He argued that it is impossible to control external events, and therefore we should work to accept what the future holds calmly and dispassionately. Some say his work is comparable to Socratic literature, particularly in his approach to self-examination and self-discipline: ultimately, he believed individuals were responsible for their own actions, which can be controlled though hard work and willpower. The Golden Sayings of Epictetus offer a selection of his most pertinent teachings which remain relevant to this very day. With countless lessons on life, love, faith, death and more – as profound as they are wise – this classic text can be returned to again and again. This audio edition is brought to life by the talented Malk Williams.
  Epictetus (50 – 135 AD) was a Greek philosopher and one of the main proponents of Stoicism. Born in Phrygia (now western Turkey), he moved to Rome once he regained his freedom, before being banished to Greece where he founded a school of philosophy. His teachings have influenced some of the greatest minds in history, including Marcus Aurelius, Pascal and Diderot amongst others.

  Number 1 Best Selling book; Alcohol Stole My Mum... 
  In 1978 John Taylor is eight years old and is in love with life. At school he is top of his class and adored by all the teachers. On the football pitch, he exhibits skills way beyond his years and, better still, his beloved Arsenal have just reached the FA Cup Final. Everything is great for John until the day he comes home from school and sees his alcoholic mother lying in bed after being beaten to a pulp by his violent father. From then on, his world changes terribly. To escape his painful and turbulent childhood, John finds solace in sports, especially football. He becomes a huge Arsenal and Celtic fan and amongst those supporters, he experiences a 'real' family, a togetherness as he travels with them to stadiums up and down the country. When John reaches adulthood, he is able to build a good life for himself with his loving partner and two beautiful young daughters. However, like so many who carry unresolved childhood trauma in their hearts, John falls prey to his own addictions. With the demons worsening in his head, and in the midst of a mental breakdown, he begrudgingly checks himself into rehab. Whilst there, he was given a choice: does he want to see his girls grow up, or does he want to be just like his mother? Faced with a 'life or death' situation, John opens up about his childhood for the first time ever in his life. Alcohol Stole My Mum is a hugely brave examination of a man's life to date. It is a story of great redemption told with a depth and candour that seeks to inspire and to help others. It is a compelling tale of how alcoholism destroys the family unit, but, worse still, creates devastating consequences that endure for years. Yet it is also laced with great humour.

  Persian Corridor in World War II...

  Operation Barbarossa was the most fateful decision of World War II, and when it gave the Soviets common cause with the British (and subsequently the Americans), the purpose of the Lend-Lease Act changed in nature as well. The bulk of Germany’s formidable armed forces were committed to the offensive in the east, which relieved the pressure on the British and meant that a German attack on Britain or elsewhere in Western Europe was not going to happen, so keeping the Soviets in the war became the most essential goal of the supply program. 
  Getting supplies to the Soviets to help them resist the German armies became a strategic imperative, and Iran’s geography of bordering the Persian Gulf to the south and Soviet territory to the north brought Iran to the front and center in the strategic supply effort. The German invasion devastated much of European Russia, but also devastated Ukraine and Belarus, other member “republics” in the Soviet Union, and the portions of the Soviet Union that bordered on Iran were Armenia, Azerbaijan and east of the Caspian, Turkmenistan. 
  The Persian Corridor involved British and Dominion forces, as well as Soviet armed forces and personnel, but the operation and management of the Persian Corridor became largely an American show. Most of the immense amount of aid sent was for transshipment across Iran to the Soviets, but it also involved supplying British and Commonwealth forces in Iran, Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East. Some was used to feed and supply Iran’s people, and some was used to modernize and maintain Iran’s infrastructure. There was also the need to supply the American troops working in the Persian Corridor. While 80% or so of the aid came from the U.S., there was also a significant amount of aid sent from Canada, Australia, South Africa and especially India.
