What Āyureda is not - Discovering the Essence of Indian Medical Thought

Antonio Morandi, Carmen Tosto

Beschreibung

This book explores Āyurveda's authentic nature through a unique "via negativa" approach, examining eight common misconceptions. By systematically analyzing what Ayurveda is not, the text builds a comprehensive understanding of this traditional medical system's true scope and identity.

Each chapter addresses specific misconceptions: Āyurveda as merely a wellness system, alternative medicine, massage technique, religion, exclusive practice, simple methodology, herbal medicine, or Indian nutrition. By dispelling these limited views, the book reveals Āyurveda as a sophisticated traditional medical system recognized by WHO, offering comprehensive healthcare approaches based on individual constitution and environmental connection.

The text demonstrates how Āyurveda, while maintaining its complexity, remains accessible to everyone through practical applications in daily life. It explains how ayurvedic principles extend beyond herbal remedies and physical treatments to encompass a complete understanding of health, including nutrition, lifestyle, and preventive care.

The book concludes by examining challenges and opportunities for Āyurveda in contemporary global healthcare. Through this systematic deconstruction of misconceptions, it establishes Ayurveda's position as a traditional medical system offering practical tools for maintaining health while honoring both individual nature and environmental connection. The conclusion transforms these initial negations into positive affirmations, revealing Āyurveda's complete nature and its relevance to modern healthcare needs.

Catching Hell - The Insider...

Allen Ricca, Joe Muto

In Catching Hell, longtime seafood mogul Allen Ricca and author Joe Muto take readers behind the scenes of the high-end restaurant world and the international market for seafood, and how that industry has been impacted perhaps like no other due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This book exposes the fact that the American diner is being lied to on a regular basis. The culprit varies – sometimes it’s a chef or restaurant owner trying to cut corners to save money; other times it’s an unscrupulous supplier looking to pass off poor product to an unwitting receiver. And the cost of that scam eventually gets passed on to the consumer, whether it be in the form of higher prices at restaurants and markets, lower quality (or even counterfeit) product getting delivered onto your plate, or – God forbid – food poisoning. Furthermore, Ricca argues, the pandemic has only increased corruption in this industry.

This book serves as both an exposé and a call to arms, empowering consumers with the knowledge to make more informed choices when dining out.

Some of the things this explosive book reveals:

-The one fish you should never order, one that’s always a rip-off. (And the one fish that’s always a delicious, virtually-unknown bargain.)

-Why restaurants that advertise “fresh” fish are almost always lying.

-How to get your favorite restaurant to treat you like royalty – without dropping thousands of dollars.

-How the covid-19 pandemic has impacted our food supply chain and what it has meant for the everyday worker.
