Description: She's the most famous woman in history, yet almost nothing is known about her. Although she's portrayed as the gentlest and most tragic of all women, her name has been used as an excuse for internecine hatred and wars between peoples. But who was Mary, mother of Jesus Christ? What type of family did she have? What was the community like in which she grew from child to teenager forced to marry a man three times her age? And why have virtually all the details of her early life been obscured and censored by the writers of the Bible? In The Book of Mary, novelist Alan Gold looks at first century Israel under the iron heels of Roman occupation and uncovers what life was like for a young woman in a distant outpost of the most aggressive and merciless Empire in history. Following Mary's story from teenager to a young woman married to a widower, to mother, and then to become a devotee of the new religion her Son had created. This tragic yet virtually unknown woman is forced to witness the excruciating pain of her son's crucifixion. Alan Gold has written over 30 books, both fiction and non-fiction. He became interested in medical scandals concerning incontinence and chronic pelvic pain in 2014. Alan has spent the past 5 years intensively investigating every aspect of the incontinence story, the mesh controversies, why the most recent discoveries in the understanding of the pelvic floor aren't taught in medical schools, as well as the pervasive influence of the $35 billion p.a. drug industry. He uncovered disturbing evidence that women are being told by existing experts in the field that cures for bladder, bowel and chronic pain problems is not available. They ARE! As are cures for bed wetting. When Alan heard of the early results from the bed wetting studies, he, like the two Professors of Medicine who have authored this book, had some difficulty in understanding how such a simple method as exercises could possibly have so profound an effect. As it happened, one of his colleagues had a 10-year old son with a severe bed wetting problem. After discussions with Professor Petros, Alan suggested the child do 10 squats every morning and every night. It was, after all, minimally invasive and the child's mother had nothing to lose. Remarkably, the child became dry within one week and with regular exercises, has stayed dry since. This gave Alan a strong incentive to persuade the authors that they should make their discoveries known to the world at large. As an internationally published and translated novelist and opinion columnist, Alan has assisted Professors Petros and Garcia Fernandez with the book's structure, planning and content.
