Pox Americana: The Great Smallpox Epidemic of 1775-82
by Elizabeth Anne FennThe story that follows is about Variola major, the virus that causes smallpox. From 1775 to 1782, Variola ravaged the greater part of North America, from Mexico to Massachusetts, from Pensacola to Puget Sound. For the virus, the great pestilence represented a phenomenal success: It found countless new hosts, it multiplied rapidly, and it traveled vast distances. But in its wake it left death and despair, killing more than a hundred thousand people and maiming many more. With no respect for boundaries of race, class, or nationality, the opportunistic microbe swept an astonishing array of people and events into its maelstrom: missionaries, mariners, fur traders, explorers, planters, fishermen, hunters, farmers, homemakers, warriors, neophytes, trappers, soldiers, prisoners, and runaway slaves. By the time the pestilence was over, it had reshaped human destinies across the continent...
The Brain Health Kitchen: Preventing Alzheimer's Through Food
by Annie FennA physician and chef identifies the top ten brain-smart ingredients and shows that eating to maintain brain health is easy, accessible, delicious, and necessary for everyone. The foods we choose to eat—or not—sit at the core of the Alzheimer&’s epidemic. They are also the heart of the solution. Annie Fenn, a doctor turned chef turned doctor/chef once she started taking care of her mother who was suffering from dementia, presents a whole new way to think about brain health: it begins in the kitchen. Scientific studies show it&’s even simpler than that. There are 10 powerfully neuroprotective foods, and by making them the center of your diet, which is what The Brain Health Kitchen shows readers how to do, you will keep your brain younger, sharper, more vibrant, and much less prone to dementia. None of these brain superfoods will come as a surprise—berries, leafy greens, whole grains, fatty fish, and beans and lentils have been touted for their health-giving properties since researchers put a name to the Mediterranean diet. The Brain Health Kitchen takes this many steps further to create a unique food-based first-and-best line of defense against the heartbreak of Alzheimer&’s. There are 100 recipes to put brain-healthy choices into every meal, from Caramelized Apple and Quinoa Pancakes for breakfast to Mushroom and White Bean Socca for lunch to dinners like Miso-Glazed Cod with Rice and Gingery Green Beans and Marinated Steak with Warm Kale Salad and Sweet Potatoes. Followed, perhaps, by Roasted Strawberries with Vanilla Bean–Cashew Cream. But it&’s not just a diet—it&’s a dietary pattern, which includes the healthiest ways to cook, making diverse choices, what foods you combine, and what you drink. Science bites throughout the book explain the research behind the facts.

Come Sconfiggere L'influenza
by Laura Fenati Richard StookerGli esperti di influenza concordano: l'arrivo di una grave pandemia è solo questione di tempo, ma ci sono molti modi per proteggere voi e le vostre famiglie. Si tratta di possibilità poco costose e ampiamente disponibili. Tutti possono prendere provvedimenti al fine di proteggere se stessi e le proprie famiglie. L'incubo è che possa ripresentarsi un'altra epidemia influenzale come quella del 1918 (la "Spagnola") che si riveli altamente contagiosa e al contempo letale. Potrebbe uccidere decine di milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. L'influenza stagionale comune uccide dai 20 ai 40 mila americani all'anno e chissà quante altre persone negli altri paesi. L'influenza suina ha già subito mutazioni in forme resistenti sia ai vaccini, sia al Tamiflu. COME SCONFIGGERE L'INFLUENZA è una guida dettagliata che offre consigli su come rafforzare il sistema immunitario, prevenire e curare l'influenza. COME SCONFIGGERE L'INFLUENZA vi parlerà del "Sistema di difesa in 7 mosse" e dei "Magnifici 7", ossia 7 precise sostanze potenziatrici del sistema immunitario. Opinioni dei lettori su COME SCONFIGGERE L'INFLUENZA "Ci viene offerta una TONNELLATA di informazioni che possono letteralmente salvarci la vita. Le soluzioni fornite sono semplici e facili da attuare. Qualunque sia il prezzo di questo libro, vale la pena pagarlo: dopo tutto.... quale potrebbe mai essere il prezzo della vita vostra e dei vostri familiari?" -- Enigma Valdez "Il Sistema di difesa del sistema immunitario in 7 mosse" è un piano dettagliato per il potenziamento di quest'ultimo. Se seguito in modo corretto, contribuirà letteralmente a offrire una grande protezione interna contro l'influenza aviaria. Questo sistema salverà delle vite! Ho visto libri in vendita a un prezzo doppio, ma che non trattano nemmeno la metà delle informazioni presenti invece in questo libro". - Clint Fountain "Ho studiato medicina alternativa per molti anni...... e ancora mi imbatto in molte notizie e consigli interessanti cui non avevo pensato, che avevo scordato, oppure non conoscevo affatto prima di addentrarmi in questo libro sulle influenze. Ben fatto!" - Jim Van Wyck "I fatti sono riportati con stile chiaro e ben scritto. Sono fornite approfondite spiegazioni biologiche facendo ricorso a parole comuni comprensibili a tutti. La capacità di comunicare concetti complessi con linguaggio comune è fenomenale. Sono decisamente molto colpito". -- Dot Pecson

Walking Boston
by Robert Todd FeltonBoston is a walker's town. It's as clear as the brick red path marking the Freedom Trail, the bright blue signs of the Harborwalk, and the green of the Emerald Necklace series of parks. Boston's nearly 400-year history has led to the development of hidden neighborhoods, historic sites, and iconic parks that tempt both Bostonians and visitors out onto the sidewalks, paths, and trails lacing this close-knit city. In addition, the Big Dig project, which helped revive downtown and the waterfront by moving Interstate 93 underground, has created an energy and excitement that has driven projects like the Harborwalk and the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway. Walking Boston offers the best of Boston's new and old rambles. This portable guide features detailed maps, original photos, and public transportation information for every trip. Route summaries make each walk easy to follow, and a "Points of Interest" section summarizes each walk's highlights.
Been There, Done That: A Rousing History of Sex
by Rachel FeltmanA rollicking, myth-busting history of sex that moves from historical attempts at birth control to Hildegard von Bingen&’s treatise on the female orgasm, demystifying plenty of urban legends along the way.Roman physicians told female patients they should sneeze out as much semen as possible after intercourse to avoid pregnancy. Historical treatments for erectile dysfunction included goat testicle transplants. In this kaleidoscopic compendium of centuries-old erotica, science writer Rachel Feltman shows how much sex has changed—and how much it hasn&’t. With unstoppable curiosity, she debunks myths, breaks down stigma, and uses the long, outlandish history of sex to dissect present-day practices and taboos.Feltman&’s mischievous humor dismantles fear and brings scientific literacy to a subject surrounded by misinformation, and indeed, as it gravitates toward the strange, Been There, Done That delivers some sorely needed sex ed. Explorations into age-old questions and bizarre trivia around birth control, aphrodisiacs, STIs, courtship rituals, and more establish that, when it comes to carnal pleasures and procreation, there&’s never been a normal, and sex isn&’t something to be scared of.

Toward Post Ageing
by Katarina Friberg Felsted Scott D. WrightThis book examines the emergent and expanding role of technologies that hold both promise and possible peril for transforming the ageing process in this century. It discusses the points and counterpoints of technological advances that would influence a reconstruction of what it means to age when embedded in a post-human vision for a post-biological future. The book presents a provocative interdisciplinary meta-analysis that contrasts paradigms with inflection points, making the case that society has entered a new inflection point, provisionally labeled as Post Ageing. It goes on to discuss the moderate and radical versions of this inflection point and the philosophical issues that need to be addressed with the advent of post ageing activities: postponing and possibly ending ageing, primarily through technological advances. This book will be a valuable resource for professionals who wish to review the continuum of varied constructs and intersects of technologies ranging from those purporting to enhance the activities of daily living in older adults, to those that would enable the older worker to stay competitive in the labor market, to those that propose to extend longevity and ultimately, claim to transcend ageing itself--moving toward a transhumanistic domain and more specifically, a post-ageing inflection point.
