Summary

Alternative Sweeteners tackles the growing need to understand sugar substitutes in our food supply. As awareness of sugar's negative impacts on metabolic health rises, this book explores whether alternative sweeteners truly offer a healthier path. It investigates the science behind these substitutes, their effects on our bodies, and their role in reshaping the food industry.

 
For example, some sweeteners can impact insulin response and gut bacteria, aspects not always considered by consumers. The book uniquely analyzes the effect of alternative sweeteners on the gut microbiome, highlighting the complex relationship between these compounds, our gut bacteria, and overall health.

 
It progresses systematically, first categorizing sweeteners by origin, then detailing their metabolic impacts, and finally examining their applications in food manufacturing and long-term health implications. This approach offers a comprehensive understanding for health-conscious consumers and food industry professionals alike, going beyond simple narratives to provide a balanced view of these increasingly prevalent food components.

    If you could pose one question to a dolphin, what would it be? And what might a dolphin ask you? For forty years, researcher and author Denise L. Herzing has investigated these and related questions of marine mammal communication. But the dolphins are not the only ones talking, and in this wide-ranging and accessible book, Herzing explores the astonishing realities of interspecies communication, a skill that humans currently lack. 
 
 
  
Is Anyone Listening? connects research on dolphin communication to findings from Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, Dian Fossey on mountain gorillas, Cynthia Moss on African elephants, and others driving today's exploration of possible animal languages. As Herzing reveals, researchers are finding fascinating hints of language in nonhuman species, including linguistic structures, vowel equivalents, and complex repeated sequences. By looking at the many ways animals use and manipulate signals, we see that we've only just begun to appreciate the diversity of animal intelligence and the complicated and subtle aspects of animal communication. 
 
 
  
Considering dolphins and other nonhuman animals as colleagues instead of research subjects, Herzing asks us to meet animals as both speakers and listeners, as mutually curious beings, and to listen to what they are saying.

    An entertaining deep dive into muscle, from the discovery of human anatomy to the latest science of strength training. 
 
 
 
Muscle tissue powers every heartbeat, blink, jog, jump, and goosebump. It is the force behind the most critical bodily functions, including digestion and childbirth, as well as extreme feats of athleticism. We can mold our muscles with exercise and observe the results. 
 
 
 
In this lively, lucid book, orthopedic surgeon Roy A. Meals takes us on a wide-ranging journey through anatomy, biology, history, and health to unlock the mysteries of our muscles. He breaks down the three different types of muscle—smooth, skeletal, and cardiac—and explores major advancements in medicine and fitness, including cutting-edge gene-editing research and the science behind popular muscle conditioning strategies. Along the way, he offers insight into the changing aesthetic and cultural conception of muscle, from Michelangelo's David to present-day bodybuilders, and shares fascinating examples of strange muscular maladies and their treatment. Brimming with fun facts and infectious enthusiasm, Muscle sheds light on the astonishing, essential tissue that moves us through life.

    All companies use information to set strategies and accomplish  business objectives. But how many CEOs and CIOs would say they are  satisfied that their companies get maximum value from information?  Not many. How many have a systematic plan for evolving their  information capabilities to the next level? Fewer still.  SAS has developed an Information Evolution Model (IEM) to aid  companies in assessing how they use information to drive business.  The model outlines how information is managed and utilized as a  corporate asset and enables organizations to objectively evaluate  their use of information and accurately lay out a roadmap for  improvements that optimize business returns. This book shows how  the IEM can be used together with analytics.  The book  provides the necessary information that managers need to introduce  and promote the use of analytics and insight across the  organization and how to identify the starting point and develop a  roadmap. Examples of global companies that have successfully been  through this process are provided as well as best practices.
