  Dr. Hunt presents his first medical book, The NO GUESSWORK Diet, based on his unique program that has helped thousands of his patients lose weight and keep it off. Dr. Hunt's weight management center in Princeton, New Jersey is the only one of its kind in the area. Now, in this book, he shares all the guidance and information that is available in his clinic.With so many gimmicks out there about how to lose weight, many people are confused about what to do. This book takes the guesswork out of weight management, explaining the science simply and laying out the research that shows that this plan is the most effective approach for losing weight and not regaining it. How does the plan work? By taking into account the bodily processes that lead to obesity and explaining what it takes to reverse those processes. Dr. Hunt has devised a unique system that teaches the reader to find their individualized carb number (#WhatsYourCarbNumber) that will allow them to predictably lose 1lb to 2lbs per week. His easy-to-follow, low-carb program leaves readers feeling full and satisfied, and includes an extensive follow-up plan for maintaining your weight. Through it all, Dr. Hunt takes the radical position that a person with obesity is not at fault and that losing weight and maintaining that loss is about more than just will power. In doing so, he takes away the blame and allows readers to focus on the science to help them get to a healthier, sustainable weight for longevity. In his three previous books Dr. Hunt worked to motivate readers and help them to see a different life for themselves. NGW is no different. It is written to inspire readers to desire a healthier lifestyle and begin doing the work to get there, for your health but more importantly for healthspan and longevity.

  Some investigators have argued that emotions, especially animal emotions, are illusory concepts outside the realm of scientific inquiry. However, with advances in neurobiology and neuroscience, researchers are demonstrating that this position is wrong as they move closer to a lasting understanding of the biology and psychology of emotion. In Affective Neuroscience, Jaak Panksepp provides the most up-to-date information about the brain-operating systems that organize the fundamental emotional tendencies of all mammals. Presenting complex material in a readable manner, the book offers a comprehensive summary of the fundamental neural sources of human and animal feelings, as well as a conceptual framework for studying emotional systems of the brain. Panksepp approaches emotions from the perspective of basic emotion theory but does not fail to address the complex issues raised by constructionist approaches. These issues include relations to human consciousness and the psychiatric implications of this knowledge. The book includes chapters on sleep and arousal, pleasure and fear systems, the sources of rage and anger, and the neural control of sexuality, as well as the more subtle emotions related to maternal care, social loss, and playfulness. Representing a synthetic integration of vast amounts of neurobehavioral knowledge, including relevant neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neurochemistry, this book will be one of the most important contributions to understanding the biology of emotions since Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals. 
   
  PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

  The Human-Agent Orchestrator -...

  From the authors of a Forbes "Top 10 Must-Read Tech Book" for 2025. 
   
  “The magic isn’t in bigger AI models, it’s in Orchestration.” 
  —Andrew Ng, Founder, DeepLearning.AI and Coursera 
  “The era of the user is ending. The era of the Orchestrator has begun.” 
  —Marshall Goldsmith, two-time Thinkers50 #1 Global Leadership Thinker 
   
  We are the last generation to manage only humans. The next will manage hybrid teams of humans and AI agents. Most leaders are not ready. 
   
  The rare organizations achieving 200% productivity gains from AI are not using better technology than those achieving 20%. They are managing it differently. 
  The authors learned this from failure. Across many AI deployments, the pattern became clear: capable agents failed not from weak technology, but from a missing management layer. 
  Human-Agent Orchestration is that layer: a new discipline for designing, directing, and scaling work across humans and AI agents. Built from four years of research across 432 organizations and hard lessons learned in the field. 
   
  Not how to build AI agents. How to lead them.  
  Not another tool. A new management discipline. 
   
  What you will learn: 
  • The 70/30 Rule: which management skills transfer to agents, and which will quietly sabotage your team. 
  • The Supervision Trap: why the way you currently work makes you the bottleneck instead of the leader. 
  • The Orchestration Design Canvas: six layers to build a system that runs without you: Source, Success, Safety, Steering, Switch, and Sharpen. 
  • The Autonomy Dial: when to give agents the keys, and when to keep humans at the wheel. 
  • Default Governance: agents do not take control. Humans abdicate it. 
  • The Identity Shift: how to save your team from Scope Collapse, Mastery Vacuum, and Purpose Drift. 
   
  This book is for leaders using AI, deploying agents, and trying to scale impact without scaling chaos. 
   
  Old leadership controlled the work. New leadership designs the system that produces it.
