Summary

Dietary Reference offers a comprehensive guide to understanding the science of nutrition and its impact on overall health, emphasizing informed dietary choices through a clear understanding of dietary guidelines, nutrient requirements, and food composition. This book uniquely bridges the gap between complex nutritional science and practical application, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to optimize their health through diet. It highlights the evolution of nutritional science from preventing deficiencies to promoting optimal health, driven by our deeper understanding of how macronutrients and micronutrients support bodily functions. Did you know that dietary needs vary significantly based on age, sex, and activity level? The book systematically progresses through key areas: foundational concepts of nutrition, detailed explanations of Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) including Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) and Tolerable Upper Intake Levels (ULs), and an extensive exploration of food composition data using resources like the USDA Food Composition Database. Providing a clear, evidence-based approach, the book also includes practical meal planning examples for different needs and discusses special dietary considerations. The approach taken is to present complex information in an accessible format, using tables, charts, and infographics to enhance understanding. It connects to fields such as medicine and exercise physiology, making it a valuable reference for both healthcare professionals and individuals aiming to improve their understanding of nutrition for healthier eating habits.

There are no graphs, no charts (Monty can’t read them) and definitely no calculus!How to Teach Economics to Your Dog tackles the knotty question of what economics actually is. Is it a mathematical science like physics? Or a moral and philosophical investigation of how societies should manage scarce resources?Along the way we meet some of the great thinkers from Adam Smith to Thomas Piketty, and ponder questions such as: What on earth does quantitative easing mean? And why are some countries so much richer than others?

  • A Life Lived Chronically - Memoir of a DES Daughter - cover

    A Life Lived Chronically -...

    A Life Lived Chronically: Memoir of a DES Daughter is a compelling and emotionally resonant memoir written by Claire R. Silverstone-Bright, brought to life through the narration of Kimberly Rog and published by Panda Publishing Agency UK. 
Long before her birth, Claire’s life was already influenced by diethylstilbestrol (DES), a drug once widely prescribed to pregnant women and promoted as a safeguard against miscarriage. What was once considered a medical advancement was later linked to serious and lasting health effects for daughters exposed to it in the womb. 
In this powerful audiobook, Claire shares her personal journey as a DES daughter—growing up with chronic illness, facing repeated medical procedures, and living under constant medical observation. Her story goes beyond physical struggles, delving into themes of identity, strength, and perseverance. 
Far more than a traditional medical memoir, A Life Lived Chronically examines the wider emotional and social implications of inheriting a medical condition shaped by past decisions. With insight drawn from her background in criminology and justice, Claire critically explores the systems of authority, healthcare, and silence that allowed DES to impact generations of women without their knowledge or consent. 
Blending intimate storytelling with thoughtful analysis, this audiobook offers a meaningful reflection on trust in medicine, the consequences of unchecked scientific progress, and the importance of giving voice to overlooked experiences. 
Honest, insightful, and deeply moving, A Life Lived Chronically: Memoir of a DES Daughter stands as both a story of resilience and a call to recognize the hidden legacy carried by DES daughters across the world.

    An engaging account of innovation in healthcare and why the results fall short for patients and society. 
 
 
 
The evolution of the cell phones we carry in our pockets demonstrates that quality can increase while prices fall. Why doesn't healthcare also get better and cheaper? 
 
 
 
In Why Not Better and Cheaper?, James B. Rebitzer and Robert S. Rebitzer offer an answer to this question. Bringing together research on incentives, social norms, and market competition, they argue that the healthcare system generates the wrong kinds of innovation. It is too easy to profit from low-value innovations and too hard to profit from innovations that reduce the costs of care. The result is a healthcare system that is profusely innovative yet remarkably ineffective in discovering ways to deliver increased value at lower cost. 
 
 
 
Why Not Better and Cheaper? sheds new light on the trajectory of innovation in healthcare, and how to point innovation in a better direction.
