  On his deathbed, Dr. Joanne Intrator's father poses two unsettling questions: 
   
   
   
  "Are you tough enough? Do they know who you are?" 
   
   
   
  Joanne soon realizes that these haunting questions relate to a center-city Berlin building at 16 Wallstrasse that the Nazis ripped away from her family in 1938. But a decade is to pass before she will fully come to grasp why her father threw down the gauntlet as he did. 
   
   
   
  Repeatedly, Joanne's restitution quest brings her into confrontation with yet another of her profound fears surrounding Germany and the Holocaust. Having to call on reserves of strength she's unsure she possesses, the author leans into her professional command of psychiatry, often overcoming flabbergasting obstacles perniciously dumped in her path. 
   
   
   
  The depth and lucidity of psychological insight threaded throughout Summons to Berlin makes it an attention-grabbing standout among books on like topics. As a listener, you'll come away delighted to know just who Dr. Joanne Intrator is. You'll also finish the book cheering for her, because in the end, she proves far more than tough enough to satisfy her father's unnerving final demands.

  The Untold Magellan Story Second...

  The Untold Magellan Story: Second Edition is not a work of fiction—it's a gripping journey through real history. In a bold and imaginative narrative, acclaimed historian Charles Avila brings the legendary Ferdinand Magellan across the Great Divide to speak directly to you, offering personal insights into his life, unprecedented achievements, and hard-earned reflections from five centuries past. 
  Through Avila’s masterful storytelling, Magellan recounts the epic voyage that changed the world: the first circumnavigation of the globe, the discovery of the strait that bears his name, his awe at the Magellanic Clouds, his regret over the naming of an island, and his unintended role in the birth of a nation. 
  This second edition goes further, revisiting the colonial legacy left in the wake of European expansion. In a striking historical turn, even Pope Francis—before his passing—challenged the long-held doctrine of the “right of discovery,” a decree once issued by Pope Alexander VI. Was Magellan’s arrival in the Philippines a heroic feat or an immoral act of imperialism? 
  With fresh insights and provocative questions, this book invites you to rethink history through the eyes of the man who helped shape it. Read the story. Or better yet—listen as Magellan tells it himself.

  Could being Black in America make you sick? Over the last decade, Kevin Dedner has been on a mission to explore this powerful and troubling question, shining an unconventional spotlight on the impact of racism on mental health. In his debut book, The Joy of the Disinherited, Dedner articulates his call for urgent change: We must knock down the invisible barriers that make it harder for Black people to get the mental health care they need and deserve. Building on American author and civil rights leader Howard Thurman’s Jesus and the Disinherited, widely considered a manual of resistance for the oppressed, Dedner uses Thurman’s teachings to come to terms with the impact oppression has had on his own mental health and the mental health of Black Americans, digging into family stories as examples of the legacy of unresolved generational trauma of the disinherited.As a public health professional who has spent his career working on high-profile issues, Dedner uses his autobiographical essays to highlight the latest mental health research, while simultaneously interrogating the invisible barriers he has encountered along his own mental health journey. Dedner weaves together research, personal storytelling and a powerful sense of our shared history to drive the conversation about the future of mental health care. This audiobook is intended to be an immersive experience designed to help you navigate and better understand your own struggles with mental health. You are encouraged to listen to it chronologically. However, you may find that certain sections speak more to where you are, where you’ve been, or where you’re going on your personal mental health journey. In addition to the text, our reader has created a song entitled, “The Story of the Disinherited,” which summarizes the entire book. You will hear excerpts from the song at the end of each chapter. At the end of the reading, you can hear the entire song.
