This work documents the surprising logarithmic pacing of human evolution. Starting at 8 million years ago with the first hominin, we keep halving units, revealing a series of distinct leaps in symbolic capacity. Ten major nodes include the first bipedal humans, the making of stone tools, ornaments, and figurines, the ritual burial of the dead, and drawing images in deep caves. We are given considerable cause to wonder about the beauty and meaning of symbols. Read this book if you want to become open to the deepest layers of symbolizing found in our humanity.

Zoe and Tod, who have been married for many years, seek to reignite their relationship with a trip abroad. Zoe wants to go to Europe, and Tod agrees on the condition that they do one wild thing in each country. This leads to complications from accidentally ingesting mushrooms in Dionysian Greece, having their clothes eaten by goats after having a vision of a medieval saint in a waterfall, and a crash amid windmills in Don Quixote's Spain. In the end their adventures and misadventures touch upon an essence of each country and leads them to discover something deeper about their relationship.

Zoe and Tod go on vacation, and outside of Yosemite Park have a near death experience. Transported to a Way-Station world, they are joined by an angelic being who becomes their guide.

The couple encounter people who still carry their hurts and earthly possessions, which they need to discard. The end holds a surprise for which the reader will have to answer. Read this book to gain a novel perspective on the immediate afterlife.
