Korean Food

Meet Casey Han: a strong-willed, Queens-bred daughter of Korean immigrants immersed in a glamorous Manhattan lifestyle she can't afford. Casey is eager to make it on her own, away from the judgements of her parents' tight-knit community, but she soon finds that her Princeton economics degree isn't enough to rid her of ever-growing credit-card debt and a toxic boyfriend. When a chance encounter with an old friend lands her a new opportunity, she's determined to carve a space for herself in a glittering world of privilege, power, and wealth—but at what cost?

As Wendell Berry writes in his preface, the book "is valuable to us because it is at once practical and philosophical."

With intelligence and wit, author Jonathan Clements blends documentary and storytelling styles to connect the past, present, and future of Japan, and in broad yet detailed strokes reveals a country of paradoxes: a modern nation steeped in ancient traditions; a democracy with an emperor as head of state; a famously safe society built on 108 volcanoes resting on the world's most active earthquake zone; a fast-paced urban and technologically advanced country whose land consists predominantly of mountains and forests.

Over the last several years, there has been an increasing interest in the impact that nutrition plays on the health of women. For many years, the golden rule of nutrition has been to consume a well-rounded diet that features lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. On the other hand, this strategy has come under growing scrutiny as a result of new research which suggests that some foods may have a stronger influence on the health of women than others. The so-called "kimchi diet" is one of the most notable examples available today. Fermented vegetables like kimchi are a focal point of this diet, ...

Robert Egan could have been a roofing contractor, like his father. Instead, he opened a barbecue restaurant.
