Sinossi

In "The Physiology of Digestion Considered with Relation to the Principles of Dietetics," Andrew Combe presents a foundational exploration of the digestive system, artfully intertwining scientific inquiry with practical dietary considerations. Emphasizing a physiological perspective, Combe delves into the mechanics of digestion, elucidating how anatomical and functional processes influence nutritional health. His clear and didactic style invites readers to grasp complex concepts, while his integration of contemporary debates in dietetics situates the work within the broader discourse of 19th-century health reform and hygiene movements. Andrew Combe, a prominent figure in the field of physiology and an advocate for health education, drew inspiration from his extensive studies in medicine and philosophy. His career was marked by a commitment to public health and preventative medicine, leading him to investigate how lifestyle and diet could transform human well-being. Combe's unique background, combining empirical observation with a holistic view of health, was instrumental in crafting this seminal text that aimed to educate and improve dietary practices among the public. This book is indispensable for anyone interested in the intersection of physiology, nutrition, and health. Combe's insights remain relevant, prompting readers to reflect on the importance of diet in maintaining optimal health. For students, health practitioners, and general readers alike, this work serves as both a historical document and a practical guide, advocating for informed dietary choices based on the principles of human physiology.

    Parkour, the art of displacement, or freerunning—whatever the name, this new discipline born in the Paris suburbs is rapidly being adopted by people throughout the world. Not satisfied to suffer through urban life, these athletic artists or artistic athletes want to thrive in it, all the while earning dignity by daringly reappropriating three fundamental motor skills: running, jumping, and climbing. Vincent Thibault explores the philosophical and spiritual aspects of the art of movement and offers ideas on health, sports, urban living, and the relationship between the body and the environment. Reflecting on the culture of effort, he also avoids the misguided notion that depicts parkour as just another of those elitist extreme sports, instead providing a thoughtful, lyrical adventure into martial arts and chivalry in an urban setting.

    This is a warm and life-affirming account, honest but never whimsical. Despite some of the difficult subjects, this memoir is overwhelmingly positive and a tribute to love. 
    Modern families come together in all sorts of ways – one parent, two parents; same sex, opposite sex; planned, unplanned; biological, adopted. There are examples of different sorts of families all around us. 
    Finding Mac tells the story of how one family came together, as Richard and his wife Swee welcome eight-year-old Mac into their lives. It recounts the highs and lows as they get to know and love each other becoming a successful family unit. Along the way it shares their experience of adoption, and particularly the experience of adopting an older child. From joining a local school, figuring out your family’s new traditions, going on holiday for the first time, and navigating the bureaucracy of the social care system. 
    But all that changed when Mac was killed on his motorbike, just a few months after his sixteenth birthday. Finding Mac deals honestly with the feelings of a parent who faces the death of his child, and coping with the aftermath.

    "I was tired of feeling this way. I was tired of everything, and I just wanted it to end . . . What would happen if I lit the entire place on fire? What if I just stayed perfectly still and did nothing?"Kicking ASSpergers is the triumphant memoir of one man's journey with autism and his quest for happiness and self empowerment despite the many challenges life throws at him. Detailing his struggles with acute anxiety, depression, OCD, psychosis, suicidal ideation, as well as social stigma and medical bias, Jeremy Tolmie moves through his childhood, from the moment he was adopted by loving parents, through brutal school years being bullied and teased, and into adulthood, where he attempts to hold down a job, attend college, and live semi independently. Over time, Jeremy starts to alienate the people in his life with his erratic and dangerous behaviour, and finds himself in and out of various living situations, including psych wards. When he meets Dave Ray, a home share provider, Jeremy starts to learn how to "trust the process" and how not to let autism rule his life.Written with humour, honesty, and compassion, Kicking ASSperger's breaks down stigma and dismantles myths and assumptions about autism. This unique voice tells an inspirational story of friendship, trust, and perseverance in the face of adversity.
