Beginning with opium, the “joy plant,” which has been used for 10,000 years, Thomas Hager tells a captivating story of medicine. His subjects include the largely forgotten female pioneer who introduced smallpox inoculation to Britain, the infamous knockout drops, the first antibiotic, which saved countless lives, the first antipsychotic, which helped empty public mental hospitals, Viagra, statins, and the new frontier of monoclonal antibodies. This is a deep, wide-ranging, and wildly entertaining book.

Wonderful book all the way through. It was incredibly engaging. Interesting that it was written Pre-Covid. Take that for what you will while listening. Love how it follows the history of the times and the social norms that changed because of medications. For better or for worse. Highly recommend!!!

Tess McGarry is only supposed to deliver a silver dragon pendant to its rightful owner and she'll be paid handsomely. But this simple job gets complicated when she comes face to face with the hottest - and most difficult - man she's ever laid eyes on. A man who says he wants to claim her as his mate. Kaden St. George was once a fierce warrior, a leader among his kind. But pursued by hunters intent on exterminating dragons and stealing his treasure, Kaden has gone into hiding....

Is it possible that there exists an ancient mystery that holds the secret of America's future? That this mystery lies behind everything from 9/11 to the collapse of the global economy? That ancient harbingers of judgment are now manifesting in America? That God is sending America a prophetic message of what is yet to come? Before its end as a nation, there appeared in ancient Israel nine specific warnings and omens of national destruction - these same Nine Harbingers are now manifesting in America with profound ramifications.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
I purchased this because ancient mysteries are normally very interesting to me and provoke thought. I listened to this while driving across the country and literally had to turn it off every 45 mins because it was so dull. All the points are repeated, for effect I'm sure, but gets old really fast. I liked the concept behind the story and I think that it could have been presented in a different matter (more documentative style). I didn't agree with some of the first presented facts, as well, therefore making me question the rest of what was "fact". I wouldn't recommend this book.
