Paperback (1 to 2 lbs)

Get Strong. Get Lean. No Bullshit

This is your brain on Grant Petersen: Every comfortable assumption you have about a subject is turned upside down, and by the time you finish reading you feel challenged, energized, and smarter. In Just Ride--"the bible for bicycle riders" (Dave Eggers, New York Times Book Review)--Petersen debunked the bicycle racing- industrial complex and led readers back to the simple joys of getting on a bike.



In Eat Bacon, Don't Jog, Petersen upends the last 30 years of conventional health wisdom to offer a clear path to weight loss and fitness. In more than 100 short, compelling directives, Eat Bacon, Don't Jog shows why we should drop the carbs, embrace fat, and hang up our running shoes, with the latest science to back up its claims.



Diet and Exercise make up the bulk of the book, with food addressed in essays such as "Carbohydrate Primer"--and why it's okay to eat less kale--and "You'll Eat Less Often If You Eat More Fat." The exercise chapters begin with "Don't Jog" (it just makes you hungry and trains muscle to tolerate more jogging while raising stressors like cortisol) and lead to a series of interval-training exercises and a suite of kettlebell lifts that greatly enhance strength and endurance.



The balance of the book explains the science of nutrition and includes more than a dozen simple and delicious carb-free recipes.



Thirty years ago Grant Petersen was an oat-bran-, egg-white-, lean-meat-eating exercise fanatic who wasn't in great shape despite all that. Today, at sixty, he is in the best shape of his life with the blood panel to prove it.

Refined sugars are probably the most hazardous ingredients in modern food. They're extremely dense in calories and highly addictive--and this can make us fat. For most Americans today, one out of every four calories consumed is refined sugar. Excessive consumption of refined sugar increases the risk for many forms of cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes type 2, general inflammation, and premature aging.

In 50 Shortcuts to a Sugar-Free Life, Fredrik Paulún Sweden's number one nutritionist and author of 50 Ways to Boost Your Metabolism, explain why refined sugars are so dangerous to your health and how to avoid excess intake and addiction. He offers lifestyle tips and easy tricks for reducing consumption of sugar and making healthy choices. Paulún also shows how to enjoy a taste of sweetness from natural sources, for delicious food that provides only positive effects for the brain and body.

Paulún draws on the latest research to provide expert, scientifically-proven shortcuts to a better lifestyle. Whether you follow one sugar-cutting strategy or all fifty, the results on your health and waistline are guaranteed.

Joseph Panno

Theories and Potential Therapies

The New Biology offers an intriguing overview of the latest technologies in the study of living organisms, using straightforward language and striking line illustrations and photographs. Since the phrase was coined three decades ago, new biology has come to include nuclear transfer technology (animal cloning), recombinant DNA technology, gene therapy, and stem cell therapy, important advances that are all explored in this set. Aging tackles all aspects of this fascinating subject, from natural processes to technological developments, and describes past and present research into extending the human life span. Author Joseph Panno discusses scientists' attempts to understand the aging process and how their resulting theories, many generated from the studies of the fruit fly and housefly, have provided a basis of knowledge in the field of gerontology. The recent trend in gerontology, the study of the mechanisms of the aging process, is to search for genes that have a demonstrable effect on life span, the so-called longevity genes. Scientists have discovered a number of these genes, providing valuable insight into the cellular mechanisms of aging that may lead to the development of truly effective antiaging therapies. Panno examines not only the use of hormone therapy and antioxidants, including other possible ways to reverse the effects of aging, but also their side effects and monetary investments. In a clear and concise manner, this volume presents the efforts, progress, and realities of this intriguing topic. Aging includes an index, a glossary of terms, a helpful list of Internet resources, and an array of historical and recent print sources. Keyed to topics not always covered in science classes, The New Biology set is essential for young readers who require information on contemporary issues in biology. There are almost as many theories about the aging process as there are researchers working in the field. This stems from the fact that scientists do not know why animals grow old and examine every aspect of an animal's physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology in attempting to answer this important question. The current trend among biologists studying the way animals grow old is to keep the theories in mind, but to focus their attention on dominant age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's or cardiovascular disease. This new volume in The New Biology set tackles the fascinating subject of aging, from natural processes to technological developments, and descibes past and present research into extending the human life span. Different theories about aging and the studies of the fruit fly and housefly, which have provided a basis of knowledge in this field, are presented in a clear and concise manner. The use of hormone therapy is explored as a possible way to reverse the effects of aging, the use of antioxidants is discussed as another area being pursued by scientists seeking to find the key to extending the human life span, and possible side effects and monetary expenses are also examined. Aging presents the full story about the hopes, efforts, progress, and realities of this timeless topic.

Jodi Thomas

In this dramatic series, the lives, loves and ambitions of four families will converge, set against a landscape that can be as unforgiving as it is beautiful, where passion, property and pride are worth fighting--and even dying--for.

Rancher Staten Kirkland, the last descendent of Ransom Canyon's founding father, is rugged and practical to the last. No one knows that when his troubling memories threaten to overwhelm him, he runs to lovely, reclusive Quinn O'Grady...or that she has her own secret that no one living knows.

Young Lucas Reyes has his eye on the prize--college, and the chance to become something more than a ranch hand's son. But one night, one wrong decision, will set his life on a course even he hadn't imagined.

Yancy Grey is running hard from his troubled past. He doesn't plan to stick around Ransom Canyon, just stay long enough to learn the town's weaknesses and how to use them for personal gain. Only Yancy, a common criminal since he was old enough to reach a car's pedals, isn't prepared for what he encounters.
