Better sex, glowing skin, and more money…by going vegan Did you know that if you adopt a vegan diet you can enjoy better sex? Save money? Have glowing skin? You can ward off Alzheimer’s, Type 2 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and other metabolic diseases. You can eat delicious burgers. Help save the planet. Join the cool kids, like Gandhi, Tolstoy, Leonardo—and Kyrie Irving, Kat Von D, and Joaquin Phoenix. Oh, and did we mention have better sex? (It’s about blood flow.) Those are just some of the 72 reasons we should all be vegan, as compiled and persuasively argued by Gene Stone and Kathy Freston, two of the leading voices in the ever-growing movement to eat a plant-based diet. While plenty of books tell you how to go vegan, 72 Reasons to BeVegan is the book that tells you why. And it does so in a way that emphasizes not what you’d be giving up, but what you’d be gaining. "Bestselling vegan activist Kathy Freston and the movement’s best chronicler, Gene Stone, team up to give us 72 reasons to go plant based (and better sex is just one of them!) A must-read for anyone concerned about the future of our planet, their own health, or the moral ramifications of meat-eating.” —Dan Buettner, National Geographic Fellow and author of The Blue Zones

The founder and president of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk, and bestselling author Gene Stone explore the wonders of animal life with “admiration and empathy” (The New York Times Book Review) and offer tools for living more kindly toward them. In the last few decades, a wealth of new information has emerged about who animals are: astounding beings with intelligence, emotions, intricate communications networks, and myriad abilities. In Animalkind, Ingrid Newkirk and Gene Stone present these findings in a concise and awe-inspiring way, detailing a range of surprising discoveries, like that geese fall in love and stay with a partner for life, that fish “sing” underwater, and that elephants use their trunks to send subsonic signals, alerting other herds to danger miles away. Newkirk and Stone pair their tour through the astounding lives of animals with a guide to the exciting new tools that allow humans to avoid using or abusing animals as we once did. Whether it’s medicine, product testing, entertainment, clothing, or food, there are now better options to all the uses animals once served in human life. We can substitute warmer, lighter faux fleece for wool, choose vegan versions of everything from shrimp to marshmallows, reap the benefits of animal-free medical research, and scrap captive orca exhibits and elephant rides for virtual reality and animatronics. Animalkind provides a fascinating look at why our fellow living beings deserve our respect, and lays out the steps everyone can take to put this new understanding into action.

Did you know that it's actually our industrialized food system?

Minkälainen ruoka aiheuttaa sairauksia, ja mitä pitää syödä tervehtyäkseen? Lääkärin kirjoittama terveysraamattu käy läpi yleisimmät kansantaudit ravitsemuksen näkökulmasta. Teos esittelee sairauksien pääasialliset syyt ja tutkimuksiin perustuvan laajan todistusaineiston helppotajuisesti ja kiihkottomasti. Sen mukaan terveyttä edistävä ruokavalio sisältää kasviksia, marjoja, hedelmiä, siemeniä, pähkinöitä, kokojyväviljaa ja varsinkin paljon vihreitä vihanneksia, kaaleja ja papuja. Michael Greger haluaa tuoda ravintovallankumouksensa suoraan suuren yhteisön tietoisuuteen, jotta valistaminen ei jäisi lääkäreiden varaan. Innoittajana on toiminut Gregerin oma isoäiti, joka 65-vuotiaana oli kuolemaisillaan kroonisiin sydänsairauksiin. Lääkehoito ja leikkaukset eivät enää auttaneet, mutta kasvisruokavalion ansiosta isoäiti toipui kolmessa viikossa lenkkeilykuntoon ja eli 96-vuotiaaksi. Informatiivinen mutta viihdyttävä kirja on ollut myyntimenestys maailmalla. Michael Greger paketoi yhteen alan uusimman tutkimuksen ja käytännölliset ravinto-ohjeet - jotta emme kuolisi sydänsairauksiin, syöpään tai diabetekseen. Kirjoittaja on noudattanut itse jo pitkään kehittämäänsä ruokavaliota ja osaa antaa vinkkejä siitä, miten sen saa sujuvasti yhdistettyä perheen arkeen.

'An absolutely invaluable book by the founder of Atari and the man who launched Steve Jobs' career.' Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs

From the legendary founder of Atari and Chuck E. Cheese's and Steve Jobs's first boss, the secrets to finding, hiring, keeping, and nurturing creative talent. The business world is changing faster than ever, and every day your company faces new complications and difficulties. The only way to resolve these issues is to have a staff of wildly creative people who live as much in the future as the present, who thrive on being different, and whose ideas will guarantee that your company will prosper when other companies fail. A celebrated visionary and iconoclast, Nolan Bushnell founded the groundbreaking gaming company Atari before he went on to found Chuck E. Cheese's and two dozen other companies. He also happened to launch the career of the late Steve Jobs, along with those of many other bril-liant creatives over the course of his five decades in business. With refreshing candor, keen psychological insight, and robust humor, Bushnell explains in Finding the Next Steve Jobs how to think boldly and differently about companies and organizations--and spe-cifically the people who work within them. For anyone trying to turn a company into the next Atari or Apple, build a more creative workforce, or fashion a career in a changing world, this book will enlighten, challenge, surprise, and amuse.
