The liturgy of the Catholic Church is the action by which Jesus Christ unites the members of the Church in glorifying God. It makes people holy through words, music, action and signs. The Eucharist is intended to be the most powerful means of union with our God, with the saints in heaven and with each other, and is to be a foretaste of the praise of God given in joy by the saints in heaven. As we move through the whole of the year, the Church is united with the mysteries of Christ’s earthly life so as to come closer to her Lord and Saviour.Monsignor Peter Elliott provides scholarship and many years’ experience and love of the liturgy. His previous workCeremonies of the Modern Roman Ritehas helped many people to celebrate our liturgy with attention and devotion. This present work is a guide to the most important moments of the Church year from Advent and Christmas to Holy Week, Corpus Christi and to the Solemnity of Christ the King. His book has been a long-awaited guide to those who wish to celebrate the events of the Church year with dignity, devotion, and deep faith.

Author: Sarah Chaney
Narrator: Stephanie Racine

A deep dive into the strange science of the ‘Normal’, and the roots of an anxiety-ridden modern obsession. Before the nineteenth century, the term normal was rarely ever associated with human behaviour. Normal was a term used in maths, for right angles. People weren’t normal; triangles were. But from the 1830s, this branch of science really took off across Europe and North America, with a proliferation of IQ tests, sex studies, a census of hallucinations-even a UK beauty map (which concluded the women in Aberdeen were ‘the most repellent’). This audiobook tells the surprising history how the very notion of the normal came about, how it shaped us all, often while entrenching oppressive values.
