Empty Harvest
by Dr Bernard JensenNearly twenty years after its initial publication, Dr. Bernard Jensen's sobering picture of just how interconnected man is with the earth, and how this connection is being destroyed - link by link - still resonates powerfully. In this eye-opening account of the inherent dangers in our agricultural system, Jensen looks at the better-known manmade disasters, such as the greenhouse effect, as well as the ecological and subsequent health related problems hidden from the general public at the time. Empty Harvest is a groundbreaking book that examines just what the total problem was and still is. "In a day when it is cheap and easy to be a doomsday prophet, Empty Harvest shines like a bright beacon of hope and ecological sanity. While exposing the dire consequences of thinking we can grow healthy food with poisons, this excellent book defines positive alternatives, and demonstrates their power to restore us to true health. Empty Harvest lights the way toward living in harmony and happiness with the forces of life." --John Robbins, author of Diet for a New America

Empty Pleasures: The Story of Artificial Sweeteners from Saccharin to Splenda
by Carolyn De La PeñaSugar substitutes have been a part of American life since saccharin was introduced at the 1893 World's Fair. In Empty Pleasures, the first history of artificial sweeteners in the United States, Carolyn de la PeÑa blends popular culture with business and women's history, examining the invention, production, marketing, regulation, and consumption of sugar substitutes such as saccharin, Sucaryl, NutraSweet, and Splenda. She describes how saccharin, an accidental laboratory by-product, was transformed from a perceived adulterant into a healthy ingredient. As food producers and pharmaceutical companies worked together to create diet products, savvy women's magazine writers and editors promoted artificially sweetened foods as ideal, modern weight-loss aids, and early diet-plan entrepreneurs built menus and fortunes around pleasurable dieting made possible by artificial sweeteners. NutraSweet, Splenda, and their predecessors have enjoyed enormous success by promising that Americans, especially women, can "have their cake and eat it too," but Empty Pleasures argues that these "sweet cheats" have fostered troubling and unsustainable eating habits and that the promises of artificial sweeteners are ultimately too good to be true.

En Sintonía con la Vida después de la Muerte: Cómo continuar comunicados con el Otro Lado
by Richard MartiniEste es el noveno libro del viaje de Richard Martini al Otro Lado. Comenzando con “El Otro Lado: Guía del turista para abrirse camino en la otra vida”, Richard ha filmado a personas que, bajo hipnosis, hablaban sobre la otra vida, y además ha filmado a personas que, sin estar bajo hipnosis, también hablaban de la otra vida. Ha realizado entrevistas con médiums que trabajan en colaboración con las fuerzas policiales en todo el país sobre casos de desaparición de personas (“Pase entre bastidores al Otro Lado” con Jennifer Shaffer, volúmenes 1, 2 y 3). Él y Jennifer llevan adelante un podcast donde semanalmente hablan directamente con personas que ya no se encuentran en el planeta. (HackingTheAfterlife.com) Su último libro es “Architectura de la Vida después de la Muerte” (“Architecture of the Afterlife”), en el cual utilizó el ejemplo de su padre, R. Charles Martini, arquitecto de Chicago quien le enseñó a leer anteproyectos. En este libro, él se concentra en el conocimiento que le impartió su madre, concertista de piano que solía actuar regularmente en Washington durante la 2ª Guerra Mundial, y a menudo invitaba a los principales músicos de la Sinfónica de Chicago, a su casa. Eso dio comienzo a una vida con la música, incluyendo actuaciones con bandas en Los Ángeles (“Imminent Disaster”), composición de música para largometrajes (“Point of Betrayal”, “Cannes Man”). En sus entrevistas con médiums (Jennifer Shaffer, Kimberly Babcock, Raylene Nuanes), diferentes músicos se presentaron para comentar cómo era para ellos estar en el otro lado. Al darse cuenta de que podía formular preguntas más detalladas a personas que ya no están en el planeta, se embarcó en este viaje musical hacia “la vida después de la muerte”. Tal como lo dijo Gary Schwartz PhD acerca de “El Otro Lado”: “Una vez que hayas leído este libro, nunca más volverás a ver el mundo de la misma manera”. Como autor de best sellers, Richa

En tiempos de contagio
by Paolo GiordanoGiordano nos obliga a coger aire ante la crisis del COVID-19 y reflexionar sobre nuestra responsabilidad colectiva, porque, «en tiempos de contagio, somos un solo organismo, una comunidad». Un nuevo virus irrumpe en un país lejano, aunque no tan lejano. La Tierra se ha vuelto pequeña. Día tras día, billones de impulsos digitales transportan la información a la velocidad de la luz de un punto a otro del planeta; infinidad de aviones surcan los cielos, borrando fronteras a su paso y trasladando sin pausa a millares de personas; y, a menor velocidad, miles de toneladas de mercancías se mueven en todas direcciones en un incesante intercambio mercantil que nutre la economía global. Y si los bienes materiales llegan hasta los lugares más recónditos con inusitada fluidez, con mayor celeridad aún se transmiten los elementos intangibles consustanciales al ser humano: la palabra, las ideas, los sentimientos, las emociones. Así pues, ante la amenaza de un virus letal de alcance universal, una miríada de opiniones, conjeturas y teorías de todo tipo -desde aquellas basadas en el rigor de la ciencia hasta las que brotan de la fértil imaginación de iluminados y charlatanes- nos envuelve como un sofocante alud que nos dificulta ver, pensar y decidir con sensatez. En este contexto tan especial, Paolo Giordano comparte con encomiable honestidad y valentía una serie de reflexiones y emociones que le provoca esta inaudita situación, poniendo de manifiesto otra vez una rara virtud para aunar dos mundos supuestamente irreconciliables: la contundente racionalidad del científico con la vulnerabilidad y las incertezas propias de un escritor sensible y comprometido.
