Age Less
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'AMAZING.' NANA AKUA, GB NEWS'A perfect combination of candid personal insight and scientific research, this highly readable guide covers it all, from cigarettes to jumping jacks...' Dr Flaminia Ronca When journalist Sandra Parsons suffered a serious back injury in her mid-40s, she knew things had to change. Years of smoking, drinking and late-night takeaways at her desk had taken their toll; she was in pain, and she felt... well, old. In her quest to heal her body, Sandra delved into the science of ageing and was astonished by what she found - that ageing is now considered a treatable 'disease', and by addressing its root causes, we can turn back the clock and dramatically improve our health. Distilling all the latest medical science and with the help of the world's leading longevity experts, she presents a 3-step plan to embed new ways of eating, moving and, crucially, resting more deeply. The plan is designed to put you on the path to long-term change, but you will feel the effects in a matter of weeks. With quizzes at each step to assess your health and clever food swaps, this book introduces key changes to your daily routine that will repair years of damage and transform the way you feel. Now 61, Sandra discovered in a recent test that she has a biological age of 20. That's right - 61 on the outside, 20 on the inside. This book shows how she did it - and how you can too.

Understanding how these two sides of ourselves interact offers revealing and often surprising answers to some of the great questions of our lives.Discover a new perspective on human behaviour, and learn how we can better understand ourselves, our struggles, and our search for meaning.
Ourika, Édouard, and Olivier
''I have no secrets; my unhappiness is the story of my entire life.''A key figure in the literary world of post-Revolutionary Paris, Claire de Duras was a writer of exceptional talent, admired by Sainte-Beuve and Goethe, imitated by Stendhal, and influencing later writers such as Fromentin, Ourika describes the discrimination suffered by a young Black woman brought up in an aristocratic French family, her unconscious adoption of this racial disdain, and her redemption by faith. Édouard charts the impossibility of the bourgeois hero''s love for the daughter of the aristocratic family into which he has been adopted on his parents'' death. In the epistolary Olivier, the two central protagonists, clearly in love, are nevertheless prevented from marriage by Olivier''s secret. Now accepted as integral to French Romanticism and the history of women''s writing, the narratives showcase Duras''s empathy with the exceptional, the outcast, and the victims of social injustice, providing pioneering studies in race, class, and sexuality. Chris Miller''s new translations into English are accompanied by an introduction and notes by Pratima Prasad, highlighting major themes in the texts. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Animal Nightlife
Vikram, Ravi and Sean, childhood friends from south London, seem to be the only ones who have noticed that they have wings. As adults and ''multiples'' - their hybrid human/animal forms - they are all now dealing with the personal and political fallout of what is turning out to be an unexpectedly turbulent present in which ''singulars'' - narrow-minded, non-syncretic - are the ones making the weather. It feels like a dangerous time for anyone deemed an outsider. Human society has rarely been this reckless or rapacious, and the fragile ecosystem holding together all the unlikely alliances of ''animal nightlife'' has been placed in mortal danger. Consumerism, greed, violence, and prejudice of every kind are ranged against the brave souls taking a stand by lining the telegraph wires as a final showdown draws ever closer.

When he floats back to the beach—was it a few hours? a few minutes?—his mother is there at the water''s edge right where he left her. Perhaps it was a dream? And yet he has returned from his solo adventure with a gift pressed into his palm, a tiny seed that when planted will grow on its own.Separation from a parent, whether for a long period or just a few minutes, can fill a child with anxiety, but at other times that same child may long to do things on their own. Using gouache, collage and watercolor, Lundberg''s stunning illustrations in Nobody But Me convey both the child’s agency and the unbreakable bond with his mother. Here is a story that will bring joy to young and old readers alike. 4-7 years."The author invite us to witness the magic of a perfect childhood [story].”***August Prize jury**Special Mention Bologna Ragazzi Awards 2025, Fiction

Perimenopauza másképp
A Menopauza másképp New York Times-bestsellerlistás szerzője tabuk nélkül beszél mindarról, amit nőként tudnunk kell, hogy magabiztosan és felkészülten élhessük meg a perimenopauza gyakran félrediagnosztizált és orvosilag elhanyagolt éveit.
„Egyszerűen nem ismerek magamra!” – Nők millióinak ismerős ez az érzés. Bár a menopauzába való átmenet kiindulópontjának általában a menstruáció rendszertelenné válását és az ezzel együtt járó testi-lelki hullámvasút megindulását tekintik, a valóságban már akár 35 éves kortól, rendszeres ciklus mellett is felbukkanhatnak az első jelek: szorongás, kimerültség, ízületi fájdalom, agyi köd, alvászavarok, szexuális problémák, kiszámíthatatlan hangulatingadozások. Ez a sokféle tünet rendkívül megterhelő lehet, különösen ha az orvosok csak legyintenek rájuk, és elintézik azzal, hogy ez „csupán stressz”, vagy „csak beképzeli magának a tüneteket” – miközben valójában komoly hormonális átrendeződés zajlik a szervezetben.
A Perimenopauza másképp lapjain dr. Mary Claire Haver, a nők egészségügyi szemléletváltásának úttörője végre világos, tudományosan alátámasztott válaszokat ad. Közérthetően bemutatja, mi zajlik a szervezetben ebben az időszakban, és azt is elmagyarázza, hogyan fordíthatjuk ezt a hormonális káoszt a javunkra.
Hiánypótló, lendületes és gyakorlatias útmutatója segít, hogy
• megértsük, pontosan mi is történik a testünkben a ciklusváltozásoktól az energiaszint, a hangulat, az alvás és a szexuális egészség válozásaiig;
• felismerjük, hogy a most meghozott döntések alkotják a későbbi egészségünk alapjait;
• felkészülten és határozottan kommunikálhassunk az orvossal ellenőrzőlisták és konkrét kérdések segítségével;
• el tudjunk igazodni a legfrissebb kutatások között, különös tekintettel a hormonterápia előnyeire és lehetséges mellékhatásaira.
Akár tapasztalsz már tüneteket, akár csak szeretnél előre gondolkodni, ez a könyv feltárja a perimenopauza kevésbé ismert összefüggéseit, és visszaadja az irányítást a tested és az egészséged felett.
