  Greek mythology influences us today. For instance, did you know that the famous athletic brand Nike comes from the Greek goddess of victory? 
  Greek mythology has, without a doubt, some of the most well-known legends in the world. Like most people, the Olympians had their fair share of family drama. This audiobook pays strict attention to the genealogy of the Greek gods and the relationships they had with one another, whether they were good, bad, or incestuous. 
  These divine beings gifted humanity joy and despair, and the ancient peoples of Greece and other countries related their own world to the actions of the gods. However, the gods and Titans were all corporeal and capable of physical interaction with humanity. They were no different than the dirt on the ground or the clouds in the sky. They could be seen and touched—especially touched, given their numerous children produced from unions with gods and demi-gods alike. 
  The heavy amount of interaction that humans had with the gods and goddesses in Greek mythology allowed them to make sense of the world order in which they found themselves. It was a constant reminder that all beings in the heavens, earth, and below were all cogs of the same system.In this audiobook, you will discover:The intriguing relationships between gods, men, demi-gods, and monstersThe connection between divinity and weakness. Not only men make mistakes; even seemingly perfect beings screw up regularly.The importance of love as a guiding force of nature and life in generalA practical understanding of the motivations of both men and gods behind their less-than-honorable actionsHow hard work might end in tragedyThe importance of family in Greek mythologyAnd much more!

  The Case of Emily V

  "Part diary, part scientific journal, part detective story, part love story: The Case of Emily V is thoroughly post-modern in its deliberate blurring of the distinction between fact and fiction, its cavalier blending of literary genres. But Oatley's first novel … also resembles old 19th-century literature. His characters are dynamic, his storylines complex and suspenseful, his soial commentary broad and integral to the plot." - Marie Campbell, Quill& Quire Quotables

  Dr. Alicia Blando learned during the early days of the HIV epidemic that American medical practices fail to holistically support patients. Seeing a gap in medical care, Dr. Blando started seeking advice from unconventional counselors, such as psychics, mediums and astrologers, as well as learning from indigenous healers. “Open for Interpretation: A Doctor’s Journey into Astrology” follows Dr. Blando’s self-discovery journey through her astrological chart and demonstrates how readers can apply this ancient practice to their own path to self-discovery.  
  In conjunction with Western medicine, Dr. Blando believes that the tenets of astrology can support a person’s health, wellbeing, and self-understanding, and can even offer insight into predispositions for certain diseases and illnesses. Dr. Blando takes readers on her pursuit of life’s age-old question, “Am I walking the right path?” She travels from Manhattan to the Peruvian Amazon, Belize, and Bolivia, and learns about time-proven, holistic methods of healing. In her stunning memoir, she shares her story of finally finding the guide she’s been seeking—and explains how we can all use that map to access our higher selves and untapped potential.  
  In “Open for Interpretation”, Dr. Blando’s expedition off the beaten path leads her to true self-exploration and connection with the world around her, as well as a desire to share her knowledge and experience.
