And All For Love... - Bookworms CollectionAnd All For Love... - Bookworms Collection

What sad, appalling, and
surprising things people
do in the name of love and
for the sake of love. These
short stories give us love won
and love lost, love revenged,
love thrown away, love in
triumph, love in despair. It
might be love between men
and women, children and
parents, even humans and
cats; but whichever it is,
love is a force to be
reckoned with.

Civilization and Its DiscontentsCivilization and Its Discontents

First published in 1930, Civilization and Its Discontents is one of the most influential works of pioneering psychologist Sigmund Freud. Focusing on the tension between the primitive drives of the individual and the demands of civilization for order and conformity, Freud draws upon his psychoanalytic theories to explain the fundamental structures, conflicts, and consequences of society. Written in the aftermath of World War I, Civilization and Its Discontents advances the idea that humans' instinctive desires-violent urges and sexual drives-create the need for law and structure, which, when implemented, create constant feelings of discontent.

Age of Myth

Age of Myth

Since time immemorial, humans have worshipped the gods they call Fhrey, truly a race apart: invincible in battle, masters of magic, and seemingly immortal. But when a god falls to a human blade, the balance of power between humans and those they thought were gods changes forever. Now only a few stand between humankind and annihilation: Raithe, reluctant to embrace his destiny as the God Killer. Suri, a young seer burdened by signs of impending doom. And Persephone, who must overcome personal tragedy to lead her people. The Age of Myth is over; the time of rebellion has begun.

The Mythical Zoo: An Encyclopedia of Animals in World Myth, Legend, and LiteratureThe Mythical Zoo: An Encyclopedia of Animals in World Myth, Legend, and Literature

In this fascinating encyclopedia about animals in world myth, legend, and literature, author Boria Sax documents how profoundly animals and their symbolism are integrated into human values.
