Recipes for a healthier happier you

This is the most personal book I've ever written, and in order to write it I've been on a complete journey through the world of health and nutrition. Now, using the thing I know best—incredible food—my wish is that this book will inspire and empower you to live the healthiest, happiest, most productive life you can. Food is there to be enjoyed, shared, and celebrated, and healthy, nourishing food should be colorful, delicious, and fun. This book is full of well-rounded, balanced recipes that will fill you up and tickle your taste buds, and because I've done all the hard work on the nutrition front, you can be sure that every choice is a good choice. If you pick up just a handful of ideas from this book, it will change the way you think about food, arming you with the knowledge to get it right on the food front, most of the time. Love, Jamie xxx

The Bike Ride of Life

Larry McMurtry

“Every line is poetry down and dirty in the mud, right where it belongs.” — Publishers Weekly A stunning literary debut, Horseman, Pass By (1961) exhibits the “full-blooded Western genius” (Publishers Weekly) that would come to define McMurtry’s incomparable sensibility. In the dusty north Texas town of Thalia, young Lonnie Bannon quietly endures the pangs of maturity as a persistent rivalry between his grandfather and step-uncle, Hud, festers, and a deadly disease spreads among their cattle like wildfire.

Donald Hall

Former poet laureate Donald Hall selects the essential work from a moving and brilliant life in poetry.



Long-Listed for the 2016 National Book Award



Donald Hall was an American master, one of the nation's most beloved and accomplished poets. Here, in his eighties, having taken stock of the body of his work--rigorous, gorgeous verse that is the result of seventy years of "ambition and pleasure"--he strips it down. 



The Selected Poems of Donald Hall reflects the poet's handpicked, concise selection, showcasing work rich with humor and eros and "a kind of simplicity that succeeds in engaging the reader in the first few lines" (Billy Collins).



From the enduring "My Son My Executioner" to "Names of Horses" to "Without," Donald Hall's best poems deliver "a banquet in the mouth" (Charles Simic) and an "aching elegance" (Baltimore Sun). For the first-time reader or an old friend, these are, above all others, the poems to read, reread, and remember.
 
"However wrenching [Hall's poems] may be from line to line, they tell a story that is essentially reassuring: art and love are compatible, genius is companionable, and people stand by one another in the end" (New York Times Book Review).

How Our Obsession with Meat Is Killing Us and What We Can Do about It

An acclaimed surgeon specializing in weight loss delivers a paradigm-shifting examination of the diet and health industry’s focus on protein, explaining why it is detrimental to our health, and can prevent us from losing weight. Whether you are seeing a doctor, nutritionist, or a trainer, all of them advise to eat more protein. Foods, drinks, and supplements are loaded with extra protein. Many people use protein for weight control, to gain or lose pounds, while others believe it gives them more energy and is essential for a longer, healthier life. Now, Dr. Garth Davis, an expert in weight loss asks, “Is all this protein making us healthier?” The answer, he emphatically argues, is NO. Too much protein is actually making us sick, fat, and tired, according to Dr. Davis. If you are getting adequate calories in your diet, there is no such thing as protein deficiency. The healthiest countries in the world eat far less protein than we do and yet we have an entire nation on a protein binge getting sicker by the day. As a surgeon treating obese patients, Dr. Davis was frustrated by the ever-increasing number of sick and overweight patients, but it wasn't until his own health scare that he realized he could do something about it. Combining cutting-edge research, with his hands-on patient experience and his years dedicated to analyzing studies of the world’s longest-lived populations, this explosive, groundbreaking book reveals the truth about the dangers of protein and shares a proven approach to weight loss, health, and longevity.
