Leptin unlocks the truth. Everything else is noise. This is not a diet book. It’s a biological manhunt. You’ve been lied to about metabolism—from the gym floor to the doctor’s office. They told you insulin was the problem. That calories in vs. calories out still mattered. That hunger was a discipline issue. Meanwhile, your energy vanished, your fat burned out of control, your libido disappeared, and your doctor gave you another script for the symptoms. But none of it starts with insulin. It starts with leptin—the master signal of your metabolic system. When leptin goes offline, ...

[Excerpt] I found this piece about Mary Bradbury in a New York Times article in 1779: “Among the persons thus charged with witchcraft was Mary Bradbury, a woman of 75 years. The wife of one of the most prominent and honorable citizens of the town of Salisbury. She was a woman of exceptionally high standing in Christian life and character. She and her husband had been residents of Salisbury for over 50 years and were the lifelong friends of Robert Pike. Their son, Wymond Bradbury, had married Sarah Pike, eldest daughter of Robert, 30 years before. The families were thus associated by ties ...

For a boy coming of age during the 1930s and '40s, Greenville, Alabama, a small cotton-farming town in the Deep South, was a wonderfully rich environment. Greenville may have been small, but for author Clifton K. Meador, MD, life growing up there was anything but dull. In his memoir Sketches of a Small Town: Circa 1940, Meador lovingly retells the stories that formed his values and shaped his life.

Enchanting Rosie is born post-World War 1—1920—but into what? Those few (male) breadwinners who returned from the bloody combat, would find the East End of London Docklands, ravaged, with little hope of regular work—if they could work, with life-changing injuries and psychological trauma. The women remained strong, but in quiet despair. Families and communities supported each other, with their futures in question. Mothers reigned supreme, but alcohol and the public houses exerted their influence.

In the year 2070, humanity has taken its first bold steps into the cosmos, establishing colonies on Mars within a series of interconnected biodomes that mimic Earth's diverse ecosystems.

A collection of humorous boyhood stories from the 1950s and 1960s in pre-independent Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). Because of the era about which the book has been written, the author has stayed with the historical names of the towns in the country's eastern border region, where he grew up. Growing up in a farming community afforded ample opportunity for mischief and naughtiness, and it is served up on the pages of this hysterically funny book in large amounts. The book starts off with a story about how at age seven, the author and his indomitable friend 'Carshy' stalked the farm's stud dairy ...
