When an explosion devastates a peaceful neighborhood, Dr. Rami Amar receives news his son was the perpetrator. Shocked by their son's apparent radicalization, Dr. Amar and his wife, Lyda struggle to make sense of their loss, which is further intensified by the investigator, Major Shani of the Israeli Defense Forces. For Shani, this is personal. His childhood friend was killed in the attack. Following protocol, Shani confiscates Dr. Amar's travel documents and destroys his home, and the undercurrent of distrust between the two men is unmistakable. With only questions and no answers, Dr. Amar decides to fix up a dilapidated local school to get the stone-throwing youths off the streets and into the classroom. But when it's impossible to acquire proper supplies, he turns to an unlikely source of help: Major Shani. To keep the students in school, learning lessons of peace, not hate, Dr. Amar promises after-school soccer matches. However, to keep his word, Dr. Amar needs even more help from Shani to break through a seemingly unmovable obstacle. Will Dr. Amar ever find out what really happened to his son? Will the men be able to unite for a common cause, or does the pain of past events run too deep? | |||

| Life of the Qur'an:From Eternal Roots to Enduring Legacy - Mohamad Jebara | 27 Feb 2024 | 09:53:06 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Life of the Qur'an:From Eternal Roots to Enduring Legacy Author: Mohamad Jebara Narrator: Sarah Al Saeedi Format: Unabridged Length: 9:53:06 Language: English Release date: 02-27-2024 Publisher: G&D Media Genres: Self Development, Health & Wellness Summary: """Appropriately epic and consistently erudite, yet accessible for lay readers.""―Kirkus (Starred review) Based on extensive scholarship, an innovative biography of the central text of Islam Over a billion copies of the Qur`an exist – yet it remains an enigma. Its classical Arabic language resists simple translation, and its non-linear style of abstract musings defies categorization. Moreover, those who champion its sanctity and compete to claim its mantle offer widely diverging interpretations of its core message – at times with explosive results. Building on his intimate portrait of the Qur`an’s prophet in Muhammad the World-Changer, Mohamad Jebara returns with a vivid profile of the book itself. While viewed in retrospect as the grand scripture of triumphant empires, Jebara reveals how the Qur`an unfolded over 22 years amidst intense persecution, suffering, and loneliness. The Life of the Qur`an recounts this vivid drama as a biography examining the book’s obscured heritage, complex revelation, and contested legacy. The Qur`an re-emerges with clarity as a dynamic life force that seeks to inspire human beings to unleash their dormant potential despite often-overwhelming odds – in order to transform themselves and the world." | |||

Unfortunately, Smooshie's help includes digging out a mummified body from the living room wall. Lily is still recovering from the last murder investigation she got involved in-and she's not looking forward to being in the middle of another one. The case gets even stickier when Lily's landlord is murdered, rumors of a heist gone wrong run rampant, and Parker's old high school buddies have returned to Moonrise, thus increasing the suspect pool. Lily's attempts to become a bona fide citizen of Moonrise might well be thwarted by this newest complication-especially when the murderer sets sights on her. | |||

On that night, in a penthouse in the Upper West Side’s stately Apelles, a crowd gathered for a wild party. And on that night, Mr. Albert Haynes Caldwell―a partner emeritus at Swank, Brady & Plescher; Harvard class of '26; father of three; widower; atheist; and fiscal conservative―hatched a plan to fake a medical emergency and toss himself into the Hudson River, where he would drown. In the eye of this storm: Hazel Saltwater, age six. The strange events of that night irrevocably altered many lives, but none more than hers. The Blizzard Party is Hazel’s reconstruction of that night, an exploration of love, language, conspiracy, auditory time travel, and life after death. Cinematic, with a vast cast of characters and a historical scope that spans WWII Poland, the lives of rich and powerful Manhattanites in the late 1970’s, and the enduring effects of 9/11, The Blizzard Party is an epic novel in the form of a final farewell. | |||

Created in Paris in 1875, Chloé, Jules Lefebvre's depiction of a naked water nymph, was brought to Melbourne's Young & Jackson Hotel in 1909, where it has hung ever since. In this passionate, luminous retelling, Katrina Kell seeks to unlock the riddle behind the girl on the canvas, known to history only as Marie. In doing so, she weaves the compelling story of an incandescent spirit - a woman with the strength to defy the boundaries of class and convention in order to survive, and an enduring power to influence the lives of others across time and distance. | |||
| First Fossil Hunters: Dinosaurs, Mammoths, and Myth in Greek and Roman Times - Adrienne Mayor | 23 Feb 2021 | 08:59:49 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: First Fossil Hunters: Dinosaurs, Mammoths, and Myth in Greek and Roman Times Author: Adrienne Mayor Narrator: Donna Postel Format: Unabridged Length: 8:59:49 Language: English Release date: 02-23-2021 Publisher: Tantor Media Genres: Non-Fiction, Science & Technology, History, Social Science, General Summary: Griffins, cyclopes, monsters, and giants-these fabulous creatures of classical mythology continue to live in the modern imagination through the vivid accounts that have come down to us from the ancient Greeks and Romans. But what if these beings were more than merely fictions? Through careful research and meticulous documentation, Adrienne Mayor convincingly shows that many of the giants and monsters of myth did have a basis in fact-in the enormous bones of long-extinct species that were once abundant in the lands of the Greeks and Romans. As Mayor shows, the Greeks and Romans were well aware that a different breed of creatures once inhabited their lands. They frequently encountered the fossilized bones of these primeval beings, and they developed sophisticated concepts to explain the fossil evidence, concepts that were expressed in mythological stories. Like their modern counterparts, the ancient fossil hunters collected and measured impressive petrified remains and displayed them in temples and museums; they attempted to reconstruct the appearance of these prehistoric creatures and to explain their extinction. By listening to these neglected narratives for the first time in the light of modern scientific discoveries, Adrienne Mayor illuminates a lost world of ancient paleontology. | |||
| Wild Mind: A Field Guide to the Human Psyche - Bill Plotkin | 23 Feb 2021 | 09:29:40 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Wild Mind: A Field Guide to the Human Psyche Author: Bill Plotkin Narrator: Paul Brion Format: Unabridged Length: 9:29:40 Language: English Release date: 02-23-2021 Publisher: Tantor Media Genres: Non-Fiction, Psychology Summary: Our human psyches possess astonishing resources that wait within us, but we might not even know they exist until we discover how to access them and cultivate their powers, their untapped potentials and depths. Wild Mind identifies these resources-which Bill Plotkin calls the four facets of the Self, or the four dimensions of our innate human wholeness-and also the four sets of fragmented or wounded subpersonalities that form during childhood. Rather than proposing ways to eliminate our subpersonalities (which is not possible) or to beat them into submission, Plotkin describes how to cultivate the four facets of the Self and discover the gifts of our subpersonalities. The key to reclaiming our original wholeness is not merely to suppress psychological symptoms, recover from addictions and trauma, or manage stress, but rather to fully embody our multifaceted wild minds, commit ourselves to the largest, soul-infused story we're capable of living, and serve the greater Earth community. | |||
| Black Holocaust For Beginners - S.E. Anderson | 23 Feb 2021 | 03:00:39 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Black Holocaust For Beginners Author: S.E. Anderson Narrator: William Andrew Quinn Format: Unabridged Length: 3:00:39 Language: English Release date: 02-23-2021 Publisher: Tantor Media Genres: Non-Fiction, Social Science Summary: Virtually anyone, anywhere knows that six million Jewish human beings were killed in the Jewish Holocaust. But how many African human beings were killed in the Black Holocaust-from the start of the European slave trade (c. 1500) to the Civil War (1865)? And how many were enslaved? The Black Holocaust, a travesty that killed millions of African human beings, is the most underreported major event in world history. A major economic event for Europe and Asia, a near fatal event for Africa, the seminal event in the history of every African American-if not every American!-and most of us cannot answer the simplest question about it. Here is a sample of what you will get from the painstakingly researched, painfully honest The Black Holocaust For Beginners: 'The total number of slaves imported is not known. It is estimated that nearly 900,000 came to America in the 16th Century, 2.75 million in the 17th Century, 7 million in the 18th, and over 4 million in the 19th-perhaps 15 million in total. Probably every slave imported represented, on average, five corpses in Africa or on the high seas. The American slave trade, therefore, meant the elimination of at least 60 million Africans from their fatherland.' | |||

Bynum, explores the key turning points in the history of Western medicine-such as the first surgical procedures, the advent of hospitals, the introduction of anesthesia, X-Rays, vaccinations, and many other innovations, as well as the rise of experimental medicine. The book also explores Western medicine's encounters with Chinese and Indian medicine, as well as nontraditional treatments such as homeopathy, chiropractic, and other alternative medicines. Covering a vast amount of information, this Very Short Introduction sheds new light on medicine's past, while at the same time engaging with contemporary issues, discoveries, and controversies, such as the spiraling costs of health care, lack of health insurance for millions, breakthrough treatments, and much more. | |||
| Delusions Of Crowds: Why People Go Mad in Groups - William J. Bernstein | 23 Feb 2021 | 17:19:30 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Delusions Of Crowds: Why People Go Mad in Groups Author: William J. Bernstein Narrator: Tom Parks Format: Unabridged Length: 17:19:30 Language: English Release date: 02-23-2021 Publisher: Tantor Media Genres: History, Non-Fiction, World, Psychology Summary: Inspired by Charles Mackay's 19th-century classic Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, Bernstein engages with mass delusion with the same curiosity and passion, but armed with the latest scientific research that explains the biological, evolutionary, and psychosocial roots of human irrationality. Bernstein tells the stories of dramatic religious and financial mania in western society over the last 500 years-from the Anabaptist Madness that afflicted the Low Countries in the 1530s to the dangerous End-Times beliefs that animate ISIS and pervade today's polarized America; and from the South Sea Bubble to the Enron scandal and dot com bubbles of recent years. Through Bernstein's supple prose, the participants are as colorful as their motivation, invariably 'the desire to improve one's well-being in this life or the next.' As revealing about human nature as they are historically significant, Bernstein's chronicles reveal the huge cost and alarming implications of mass mania: for example, belief in dispensationalist End-Times has over decades profoundly affected US Middle East policy. Bernstein observes that if we can absorb the history and biology of mass delusion, we can recognize it more readily in our own time, and avoid its frequently dire impact. | |||

Today a national icon, Robinson was a complicated man who navigated an even more complicated world that both celebrated and despised him. Many are familiar with Robinson as a baseball hero. Few, however, know of the inner turmoil that came with his historic status. Featuring piercing essays from a range of distinguished sportswriters, cultural critics, and scholars, this book explores Robinson's perspectives and legacies on civil rights, sports, faith, youth, and nonviolence, while providing rare glimpses into the struggles and strength of one of the nation's most athletically gifted and politically significant citizens. Featuring a foreword by celebrated directors and producers Ken Burns, Sarah Burns, and David McMahon, this volume recasts Jackie Robinson's legacy and establishes how he set a precedent for future civil rights activism, from Black Lives Matter to Colin Kaepernick. | |||

| Power of Student Agency: Looking Beyond Grit to Close the Opportunity Gap - Anindya Kundu | 23 Feb 2021 | 07:28:40 | |

Anindya Kundu argues that we can fight against deeply rooted inequalities in the American educational system by harnessing student agency-each person's unique capacity for positive change. To make his case, Kundu draws powerful narratives from a population of individuals who beat the odds to become academically and professionally successful. These strivers have overcome challenges such as broken families, homelessness, unexpected pregnancies, forms of abuse, incarceration, and more, to make it in the world. But it wasn't simply individualism, tenacity, resilience, or grit that helped them. Rather, as Kundu illustrates, it was a combination of social and cultural supports that paved the path towards their dreams, harnessing the inherent power of their agency. | |||

Thorne Format: Unabridged Length: 8:11:03 Language: English Release date: 02-23-2021 Publisher: Tantor Media Genres: Non-Fiction, Psychology Summary: Every sports fan loves a great comeback. Is there a special quality shared by top athletes who triumph over great challenges? And can anyone acquire it? In The Comeback Quotient, celebrated sports writer Matt Fitzgerald supplies the answer to both questions. He identifies these mega-achievers of astounding athletic comebacks as 'ultrarealists,' men and women who succeed where others fail by fully accepting, embracing, and addressing the reality of their situations. From ultrarunners like Rob Krar to triathletes like Mirinda Carfrae to rowers, skiers, cyclists, and runners all over the world, Fitzgerald highlights and speculates on just what makes these comebacks so compelling. As for whether anyone can stage his or her own great comeback, the answer is a resounding yes: Anyone can become an ultrarealist to some degree. In the tradition of his bestselling How Bad Do You Want It?, The Comeback Quotient combines gripping sports stories with mind-blowing science to deliver a book that will forever change how you perceive the challenges you face, giving you the inspiration and the tools to make the next great comeback you witness your own. | |||
| Philosophers and the Mere: A Modern Myth Without a Tower - Brian Capleton | 24 Feb 2024 | 11:15:11 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Philosophers and the Mere: A Modern Myth Without a Tower Author: Brian Capleton Narrator: Brian Capleton Format: Unabridged Length: 11:15:11 Language: English Release date: 02-24-2024 Publisher: Authors Republic Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Non-Fiction, Health & Wellness, Religious Fiction, Philosophy, Naturopathy & New Age Summary: The inner circle of the philosophers of Pavi Bujdam are a close group of friends who include a renowned artist, a mathematician, musicians, dancers, theologians and an astrologer, who all live with the great philosophical question of what lies beyond the mere surrounding their almost trouble-free land. In their meetings together they are always exploring their philosophies, an exploration in which the reader is invited to share in the form of the entertainment of the story. In a setting of symbolism and literary device, through the storytelling in The Philosophers and the Mere we tacitly meet Buddhism, ancient Greek philosophy, the Hindu Puranas, Renaissance Neoplatonism, Christianity, the subject matter of great paintings by Poussin and Botticelli, and even the deep philosophical questions of modern physics, all in an original, progressively poetical setting. The tenor of The Philosophers and the Mere is outside the mould of ordinary stories of troubles and strife in personal affairs of human love and relationships. In The Philosophers and the Mere such trouble regularly appears only in the annual masquerade which takes place at the Mereage, the most beautiful part of Pavi Bujdam in which all the friends live. As the story progresses, the philosophy of the friends begins to come to life. In the language of Mythic Symbolism the very landscape of the tale itself undergoes its own metamorphosis. Its final unfolding reveals a post-contemporary myth within whose fabric is woven a message about love and human existence. | |||

Brueggemann shows listeners how keeping the Sabbath allows us to break this restless cycle and focus on what is truly important: God, other people, all life. Perfect for groups or self-reflection, Sabbath as Resistance offers a transformative vision of the wholeness God intends, giving world-weary Christians a glimpse of a more fulfilling and simpler life through Sabbath observance. | |||

Professionally, Croy goes in, gets the job done, and doesn't allow for anything that might resemble interest-which mirrors the way he handles his personal life as well. When Croy is assigned to act as bodyguard to a billionaire during a long weekend trip to Las Vegas, he expects another in and out job made all the more tedious by the company he'll be keeping, and his loathing of Sin City. What he ends up with, however, is far more than he bargained for.

Then Croy Esca comes crashing into his life, and it doesn't take long before he's struck by how desperate he is to make sure the fixer doesn't become the one that got away. When Croy's assignment evolves into something so much more dangerous and complicated than he could have ever predicted, and his and Dallas's lives collide, the fixer finds himself in a fix.

A journey as much of the heart and soul as of the body, it will find the lovers struggling against the expectations of gender, the oppression of class, and even, at times, each other. What they find at the end of their journey is not a new Eden, but a land of hope and opportunity that offers them the chance to live out their most cherished dream-a life together.

As the foundational text of Judaism and Christianity, the Bible has been interpreted and reinterpreted over millennia, utilized to promote a seemingly endless run of theological and political positions. Adherents and detractors alike point to different passages throughout to justify wildly disparate behaviors and beliefs. Translated and retranslated, these texts lead both to unity and intense conflict. Influential books on any topic are typically called 'bibles.' What is the Bible? As a text considered sacred by some, its stories and language appear throughout the fine arts and popular culture, from Shakespeare to Saturday Night Live. In Michael Coogan's eagerly awaited addition to Oxford's What Everyone Needs to Know series, conflicts and controversies surrounding the world's bestselling book are addressed in a straightforward Q&A format. This book provides an unbiased look at biblical authority and authorship, the Bible's influence in Western culture, the disputes over meaning and interpretation, and the state of biblical scholarship today. Brimming with information for the student and the expert alike, The Bible: What Everyone Needs to Know is a dependable introduction to a most contentious holy book. | |||
