  A psychotherapist's candid memoir of addiction and recovery, exploring the intersection of Asian culture, mental health, and assimilating into American culture as an ethnic minority. 
   
   
   
  Sam Louie grew up torn between cultures as part of a first-generation Chinese immigrant family from Hong Kong living in a predominantly African American neighborhood in the United States. He experienced the duality of existence with the tension of two vastly different worldviews, his identity intertwined with the country he lives in and his ancestral ties. What traditions and cultural beliefs get preserved, what gets discarded, and what gets lost in translation? Beneath it all was the presence of three generations of addiction, trauma, and shame. 
   
   
   
  In this insightful book, he documents the challenges of immigrant experiences and how maladaptive coping mechanisms in the form of compulsive behaviors were a means to gain a sense of adequacy due to the cultural tide of shame and ostracism within his own ethnic heritage and the world. 
   
   
   
  Louie's journey of resiliency in navigating multiple cultural forces in the face of adversity can give listeners a new understanding of hope, perseverance, and the resources to heal.

  Canada Defies Annexation is a bold exploration of one of North America’s most enduring questions: why has Canada resisted every attempt by the United States to absorb it? 
  From the War of 1812 to modern trade wars, author Majdi Altaamneh traces over two centuries of political pressure, economic coercion, and cultural resilience. This audiobook blends history, politics, and personal perspective to show how Canada has preserved its independence and identity in the shadow of its powerful neighbor. 
  Whether through battles fought with muskets, negotiations at the trade table, or the quiet strength of cultural pride, Canada has continually defied annexation. Today, as new debates resurface, this story is more relevant than ever. 
  For Canadians, Americans, and anyone curious about how a nation can stand firm against a giant, this is a journey into history, resistance, and the promise of sovereignty.

  A History of Some of China’s...

  China has always fascinated outsiders, much in the same way that distant light fascinates someone looking down a dark road. It is both familiar and mysterious, ancient and new, and fully understanding it seems to always remain just out of reach. From the Great Wall to the ancient teachings of Confucius, China’s natural and man-made wonders have been topics of interest among Westerners since the Middle Ages and the pursuit of trade routes both by land and sea, amazing Marco Polo and 19th century British expeditions in similar ways despite the passage of several centuries between them. 
  The Great Wall of China is perhaps the wonder of the world that has most captured the human imagination, and as the quotes about it indicate, the wall has acquired special significance even outside of China. The places and ways in which it has taken hold vary greatly, but one thing is certain: the Great Wall of China is as amazing as it is mysterious, and it’s as mundane as it is magical. Naturally, the Wall has become the most recognizable symbol of China, used for both aggrandizement and criticism. Nationalists see it as a symbol of China's peaceful nature, engineering capability, and historic longevity, while detractors see the Wall as the embodiment of China's backwardness, closed-mindedness, and hubris. Though the wall can symbolize all of these things about China, it is important to remember that the many long walls. upon some of which the current landmark was constructed, were put up by specific people for specific purposes. 
  People across the world were excited when it was revealed in 1974 that archaeologists had uncovered a new and amazing find: an underground army consisting of thousands of clay soldiers, still standing at their posts despite being over 2,000 years old. In addition to the remarkable feats of craftsmanship and the size and scale of the Terracotta Army, modern people could not quite wrap their minds around.
