Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It

[
An eye-opening myth-shattering examination of what makes us fat from acclaimed science writer Gary Taubes.

In his New York Times best seller Good Calories Bad Calories Taubes argued that our diet’s overemphasis on certain kinds of carbohydrates—not fats and not simply excess calories—has led directly to the obesity epidemic we face today. The result of thorough research keen insight and unassailable common sense Good Calories Bad Calories immediately stirred controversy and acclaim among academics journalists and writers alike. Michael Pollan heralded it as “a vitally important book destined to change the way we think about food.”

Building upon this critical work in Good Calories Bad Calories and presenting fresh evidence for his claim Taubes now revisits the urgent question of what’s making us fat—and how we can change—in this exciting new book. Persuasive straightforward and practical Why We Get Fat makes Taubes’s crucial argument newly accessible to a wider audience.

Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in calories-out” model of why we get fat and the good science that has been ignored especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue. He also answers the most persistent questions: Why are some people thin and others fat? What roles do exercise and genetics play in our weight? What foods should we eat and what foods should we avoid?

Packed with essential information and concluding with an easy-to-follow diet Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it.[]

Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness Medicine and the Murder of a President

[
James A. Garfield was one of the most extraordinary men ever elected president. Born into abject poverty he rose to become a wunderkind scholar a Civil War hero and a renowned and admired reformist congressman. Nominated for president against his will he engaged in a fierce battle with the corrupt political establishment. But four months after his inauguration a deranged office seeker tracked Garfield down and shot him in the back.

But the shot didn’t kill Garfield. The drama of what hap­pened subsequently is a powerful story of a nation in tur­moil. The unhinged assassin’s half-delivered strike shattered the fragile national mood of a country so recently fractured by civil war and left the wounded president as the object of a bitter behind-the-scenes struggle for power—over his administration over the nation’s future and hauntingly over his medical care. A team of physicians administered shockingly archaic treatments to disastrous effect. As his con­dition worsened Garfield received help: Alexander Graham Bell the inventor of the telephone worked around the clock to invent a new device capable of finding the bullet.

Meticulously researched epic in scope and pulsating with an intimate human focus and high-velocity narrative drive The Destiny of the Republic will stand alongside The Devil in the White City and The Professor and the Madman as a classic of narrative history.[]

The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right

[

The New York Times bestselling author of Better and Complications reveals the surprising power of the ordinary checklist

We live in a world of great and increasing complexity where even the most expert professionals struggle to master the tasks they face. Longer training ever more advanced technologies—neither seems to prevent grievous errors. But in a hopeful turn acclaimed surgeon and writer Atul Gawande finds a remedy in the humblest and simplest of techniques: the checklist. First introduced decades ago by the U.S. Air Force checklists have enabled pilots to fly aircraft of mind-boggling sophistication. Now innovative checklists are being adopted in hospitals around the world helping doctors and nurses respond to everything from flu epidemics to avalanches. Even in the immensely complex world of surgery a simple ninety-second variant has cut the rate of fatalities by more than a third.

In riveting stories Gawande takes us from Austria where an emergency checklist saved a drowning victim who had spent half an hour underwater to Michigan where a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection. He explains how checklists actually work to prompt striking and immediate improvements. And he follows the checklist revolution into fields well beyond medicine from disaster response to investment banking skyscraper construction and businesses of all kinds.

An intellectual adventure in which lives are lost and saved and one simple idea makes a tremendous difference The Checklist Manifesto is essential reading for anyone working to get things right.
