  One Sunday in 2001 ear, nose and throat specialist Dr Peter Friedland received an unexpected call from Nelson Mandela's personal physician. The former president was struggling to hear. Could Peter visit him at home?
  Friedland discovered that Mandela was using antiquated hearing aids and was struggling to maintain them. Soon he became a regular visitor to Mandela's home in Houghton where he experienced the elderly statesman, in the frailty of old age, away from the crowds. He was full of stories and always bearing a lesson.
  But outside Mandela's quiet house, Friedland's life was ricocheting from treating one victim of violent crime to another. On many days he worked as a head and neck trauma surgeon and found himself drawn into the victims' families. When his own family and friends were exposed to violent crime, he was driven to make a life-changing decision.
  In Quiet Time with the President, Friedland also examines the powerful forces that push people away from South Africa and those that pull them back. Telling his famous patient that he was planning to leave the country was insurmountably difficult for Friedland, but Mandela surprised him.
  He'd accept his leaving, but on one condition . . .

  Chinese mythology is a rich and intricate tapestry of stories, legends, and beliefs that have shaped the cultural and spiritual landscape of China for millennia. These myths not only entertain but also convey moral lessons, cultural values, and historical narratives that resonate deeply with the Chinese people. In a society where tradition and heritage are highly esteemed, mythology plays a vital role in connecting individuals to their past, providing a framework for understanding their identity and place in the world. 
  The role of mythology in Chinese culture extends beyond mere storytelling; it serves as a lens through which people view the cosmos, nature, and humanity's place within it. Myths explain natural phenomena, the creation of the world, and the origins of important cultural practices, creating a sense of continuity and belonging across generations. Characters such as the Dragon, a symbol of power and auspiciousness, and the Jade Emperor, a central deity in Taoist cosmology, exemplify the deep-rooted connections between mythology and cultural identity. These figures embody qualities that the Chinese people aspire to, reinforcing ideals of strength, wisdom, and harmony.
