Food Noise
Is your Food Noise too loud?
Are you deafened by persistent chatter that sends you back to the kitchen or the coffee shop for a snack you probably don't need?
Food Noise can be relentless, it can worsen with chronic stress, or lack of sleep, and is dialled up by seductive advertising and the easy meals and treats we are surrounded by.
This book weighs up the pros and cons of the new GLP1's, the so-called 'miracle' weight loss drugs which promise to silence the food noise and deliver rapid weight loss. They also have a role to play in reversing Type 2 diabetes and can have other health benefits, but are they a game changer, or a health hazard?
Food Noise is an easy-to-read mix of the latest science, real-life stories, practical advice, delicious and healthy recipes, and a 7-day meal plan to help you eat well when you're eating less, on or off the drugs.
This book will help you to
· Understand the science
· Transform your diet and your health
· Sustain that change

The Cunning Farmer
A guide to restoring the ancient relationship between farming and magic• Explores how to reconnect with nature and use practical, nature-based magic for gardening and farming, fertility, and abundance• Examines Moon work, plant magic, forest deities, Earth energies, weather magic, the cosmology of ritual, and how to work with land spirits• Discusses folk magic traditions of North America and Western Europe, including the grimoire tradition, Western esotericism, alchemy, Kabbalah, and shamanism as well as Taoist principles and ReikiMagic and farming, in the minds of ancient people, were not separate realms of life, but both were woven inextricably into the way people lived. Through libations, prayers, hymns, dances, sacrifices, and rituals, ancient farmers connected to the sacred forces, the gods, nature spirits, and ancestors to make the crops grow, keep the herds healthy, the weather favorable, and release energies of fertility. These rural farmer priests and priestesses of the ancient past are the spiritual ancestors of today’s cunning farmers. This book explores folk magic traditions of North America and Western Europe, including the grimoire tradition and the practices of witches and cunning folk for increased fertility. Todd draws on Western esotericism, Taoist principles, alchemy, Kabbalah, Reiki, and shamanism to show how to use practical, nature-based magic, just like our ancestors, for more abundant gardening and farming. He shows how to work with land spirits, including meeting the place spirit of your land—the genius loci. He also explores working with Earth and Moon energies, plant magic and forest deities, and ritual. Learn how to deepen your connection to elemental and celestial forces and explore the idea of rewilding the imagination to enhance your relationship with nature and the spirits that call it home. This book is not just a guide to farming, but to forging a relationship with the living land. It shows that we are surrounded by spiritual powers and, with their help, we can re-enchant and reconnect with the land that gives us life.
Lightfall 4: A Place Between
In the fourth installment of the award-winning, critically acclaimed Lightfall series, Bea, Cad, and their friends continue their quest to restore light on their dark world. Perfect for fans of Amulet and Avatar, this next book dives deeper into the magical world of Irpa, where ancient secrets and adventures abound.
After surviving a shipwreck on the Fuerre Sea, Cad washes ashore on the shores of Pellidyr. There, he searches for Lorgon, the Water Spirit, but instead finds the other spirits of Irpa who question if their planet can be saved. One of them offers to help Cad and transports him to A Place Between, a strange liminal realm between the living and the dead, where Cad works to uncover the reason Lorgon summoned them to Pellidyr in the first place.
Meanwhile, Bea awakens within the walls of the capital city. While Pellidyr’s leader has heard the tales of Bea’s derring-do and believes her to be a hero with all the answers, she’s never felt more uncertain about the future. What she does know is that she can’t accomplish anything without her crew. When Bea’s escape plan also brings her to A Place Between, she makes a shocking discovery that changes her understanding of everything that came before her…and what could soon follow.

Drawing: Antony Gormley
A comprehensive overview of Antony Gormley's drawings from 1980 to the present, with insightful texts from the artist and major contributors.
'What is drawing?' the artist asks in the prologue to Drawing: Antony Gormley. 'What does it mean to draw?' This beautifully illustrated volume presents the first comprehensive overview of Antony Gormley's drawings from 1980 to the present day, offering an intimate and enlightening window into the artist's vision.
Illustrating over 400 works, many of which have never been seen or published before, this major new publication traces Gormley's exploration of drawing as a vital form of thought and feeling. The artist's own reflections punctuate the book with deeply personal insights into his process, including ruminations on drawing's possibilities - 'the act of drawing is its own experimental field, a journey into the unarmed parts of our internal landscape' - and meditations on 'the intrinsic qualities of substances and liquids', from charcoal, mushroom ink and blood to the earth beneath our feet.
Accompanying Gormley's writings are perceptive texts by Jeanette Winterson, Margaret Iversen, Daisy Hildyard, W.J.T. Mitchell and Merlin Sheldrake. Each contributor offers a unique perspective on Gormley's work and the wider meaning of drawing as an act of exploration and transformation.
Drawing: Antony Gormley stands as both a personal and artistic journey. As Gormley himself reflects, 'Drawings have immediacy. In a good session, drawing can be like going for a rugged, physical adventure on a blustery day with changing conditions of light and rain. A day passed without drawing is a day lost.'

Great Literary Sisters
Sisterly relationships feature prominently in some of our best-loved classic literature. From Jane and Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice to Hasina and Nazneen in Brick Lane, they have provided inspiration for novelists over the centuries. Sisters can be best friends, mother figures, rivals, heroes, sounding boards or partners in crime, depending on literary genre, era, or the demands of plot. They can bring into focus the changing roles of women in society, especially in literature that predates the twentieth century, such as Middlemarch, The Woman in White and The Old Wives’ Tale. Their bonds with younger or older siblings, like those of Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy in Little Women, are often complex and nuanced, and occasionally devastating. Covering childhood, adventure, affairs of the heart and mental health, this book explores the role of sisters in twenty individual entries, each one providing a synopsis and analysis of the work in question. Including writers as diverse as Charles Dickens, E.M. Forster, J.D. Salinger, Toni Morrison and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, it makes the perfect read for book-loving sisters whatever their connection.

Soft Core
A blazing novel following a young woman on a wild, hallucinogenic quest for love and selfhood in San Francisco's seedy underground.
Baby is a dancer at a strip club and at the age of 27, she's feeling lost. It seems that only Dino, her sweet, cross-dressing, drug-dealing ex-boyfriend can keep her afloat. So, when Dino disappears without so much as a kiss goodbye, she plunges headfirst into San Francisco's shady erotic underground to find him.
Baby searches through dive bars and old haunts, at the club and at the sex dungeon where she has a part-time dominatrix gig. She encounters clients like Simon, a recluse paying her for increasingly bizarre 'favours' and a philosophizing suicide fetishist named 'Nobody', as well as co-workers like Emeline, the balletic new hire who seems to want to steal Baby's whole identity, starting with her underwear.
It's not long before she starts to find cryptic notes hidden in her belongings and realises her search is attracting the wrong kind of attention. With her grip on reality loosening and the clock ticking, will Baby manage to put together the pieces and find the only man she's ever loved? Or might her past catch up with her first?
Manically smart, brutally funny and deeply sexy, Soft Core is a book about desire, fantasy and true love - like no other.

Manitoba
Třetí sbírka Davida Vody (nar. 1976), básníka a historika umění, je jako spirála, která se napíná, smršťuje, roste. Jeho poezie pulzuje od hmotného k duchovnímu a zpět. Lze jí propadnout jako papírovým dnem. Vidět ji v barevných kostkách poskládaných na holé zemi. Slyšet ji v altu hortenzií. Dotýkat se jí, když kráčíš po dně vrásky kolem milovaných úst. David Voda ve své Manitobě tvoří vše nové. Z nápisů tužkou po bílé stěně, z ladění zvonů, bzukotu pump, bobulí pámelníku, ze světla, v němž žijeme. Manitoba je v řeči kmene Krí místo, kde se prérie úží, aby duch prošel uchem jehly. Mezi životem a smrtí je trhlina, předkové přicházejí, aby pojedli z našich talířů, a mizejí syti našimi úlitbami. Kosmem zní jazyk jako chůze, láme bochníky sněhu, drtí skořápky popelavých vajec. Do úžiny ducha lze vstoupit odkudkoli, jen položit klepadla na své spánky.

The Age Code
From the rising incidence of cancer in the under-50s to increased infertility rates, there are signs everywhere that growing numbers of us are ageing too quickly. Why? Many believe there’s one major culprit: our diet.
Ageing reflects a fragile balance in our cells between damage and repair. Sugar, excess calories and gut inflammation are all common sources of damage, but if we instead fuel our body with valuable micronutrients, we can lower our disease risk and age markedly slower. Until recently this process was impossible to measure, but with new breakthroughs we can even assess the age of individual organs, giving rise to a new science of food that might save us.
Join Dr David Cox as he meets the experts attempting to understand what’s accelerating our biological clocks and what we can do about it. Along the way you’ll learn everything from why we become more acidic as we age, to why omega-3s are one of the most powerful anti-ageing supplements, to the simple adjustments to your cooking that will help you age better.
The Age Code urgently pinpoints why our eating habits must change and what we can all do to live longer and healthier lives.
A Biblia Éva, Judit és Mária Magdolna szerint
A Biblia történetei évszázadokon át formálták kultúránkat, mégis a magyarázatok és újramesélések gyakran háttérbe szorították a női szereplők hangját. Ez a kötet ezen változtat. A jól ismert eseményeket most Éva, Judit, Mária Magdolna és más bibliai nők mesélik el - saját szavaikkal, saját nézőpontjukból. A könyv érzékenyen és bátor frissességgel mutatja meg, miként élhették meg ők a teremtést, a hitet, a kísértést, a veszteséget és a reményt.
A mű nemcsak hiánypótló vállalkozás, hanem kifejezetten olvasmányos is: irodalmi igényességgel, mégis közérthetően közelít az ősi szövegekhez. Új fényt vet a legismertebb történetekre, miközben emberközelivé teszi a bibliai alakokat. Azok számára is élvezetes és befogadható olvasmány, akik kevésbé jártasak a Bibliában, hiszen a személyes hangvétel, az érzelmi mélység és a modern narráció hidat képez múlt és jelen között.
Ez a könyv egyszerre újraértelmezés és felfedezés: meghívás arra, hogy a Bibliát ne csak olvassuk, hanem meghalljuk benne azokat a hangokat is, amelyek túl sokáig maradtak csendben.
