Professor Mitchell Cameron was quite content existing as he was, numb, uncaring, and uninvolved. He had given up on anything that might awaken his senses, except for Jessie he believed in Jessie. He loved her. But Jessie's view of life was quite different from his she cared too much about everything, which is too much for anyone. In the end, she felt so empty from trying so hard, it finally killed her. Now all Mitchell had left was his loss. He felt no rage or disgust, just numb until that one day. He walked into the woods, as he had many times before, but this time things were very different. He was led to what so many, including myself, had assumed didn't exist: the Forest. The place where creatures discuss all kinds of matters like life, love, hate, war, peace, abuse, murder, punishment, goodness, happiness, grief, marriage, trust, faith, and on and on. Everyone in the Forest, young and old, is fully alive and vibrant and, as Dr. Cameron found out, this place can be found easily if you follow the guidelines. After all, it is only a Whisper away.

In this thoroughly engaging book, Natalie Haynes brings her scholarship and wit to the most fascinating true stories of the ancient world. The Ancient Guide to Modern Life not only reveals the origins of our culture in areas including philosophy, politics, language, and art, it also draws illuminating connections between antiquity and our present time, to demonstrate that the Greeks and Romans were not so different from ourselves: is Bart Simpson the successor to Aristophanes? Do the Beckhams have parallel lives with The Satiricon's Trimalchio? Along the way Haynes debunks myths (gladiators didn't salute the emperor before their deaths, and the last words of Julius Caesar weren't "et tu, brute?") from Athens to Zeno's paradox, this irresistible guide shows how the history and wisdom of the ancient world can inform and enrich our lives today.

Geoff and his friends live in Phocaea, a distant asteroid colony on the Solar System's frontier. They're your basic high-spirited young adults, enjoying such pastimes as hacking matter compilers to produce dancing skeletons that prance through the low-gee communal areas, using their rocket-bikes to salvage methane ice shrapnel that flies away when the colony brings in a big (and vital) rock of the stuff, and figuring out how to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance motes that are the million eyes of 'Stroiders, a reality-TV show whose Earthside producers have paid handsomely for the privilege of spying on every detail of the Phocaeans' lives. Life isn't as good as it seems, though. A mysterious act of sabotage kills Geoff's brother Carl and puts the entire colony at risk. And in short order, we discover that the whole thing may have been cooked up by the Martian mafia, as a means of executing a coup and turning Phocaea into a client-state. As if that wasn't bad enough, there's a rogue AI that was spawned during the industrial emergency and slipped through the distracted safeguards, and a giant x-factor in the form of the Viridians, a transhumanist cult that lives in Phocaea's bowels. In addition to Geoff, our story revolves around Jane, the colony's resource manager -- a bureaucrat engineer in charge of keeping the plumbing running on an artificial island of humanity poised on the knife-edge of hard vacuum and unforgiving space. She's more than a century old, and good at her job, but she is torn between the technical demands of the colony and the political realities of her situation, in which the fishbowl effect of 'Stroiders is compounded by a reputation economy that turns every person into a beauty contest competitor. Her manoeuverings to keep politics and engineering in harmony are the heart of the book.

I began to write, and as I did, everythingmany things which I had forgotten or never thought of came flooding my memory as if he was reminding me of what I needed to write. Inside, between the covers of this book, you will find a riveting, amazing encounter. Because it is the story of my life, it starts out a bit slow as I relive my childhood years, but please keep reading because a little way in, you will discover suspense, intrigue, and experiences that are so amazing that you will say, no, those cannot be true, but they are, and it is my story.
