  An irreverent, surprising, and entirely entertaining look at the little-known history surrounding the foods we know and love 
   
  Is Italian olive oil really Italian, or are we dipping our bread in lamp oil? Why are we masochistically drawn to foods that can hurt us, like hot peppers? Far from being a classic American dish, is apple pie actually . . . English? 
  “As a species, we’re hardwired to obsess over food,” Matt Siegel explains as he sets out “to uncover the hidden side of everything we put in our mouths.” Siegel also probes subjects ranging from the myths—and realities—of food as aphrodisiac, to how one of the rarest and most exotic spices in all the world (vanilla) became a synonym for uninspired sexual proclivities, to the role of food in fairy- and morality tales. He even makes a well-argued case for how ice cream helped defeat the Nazis. 
  The Secret History of Food is a rich and satisfying exploration of the historical, cultural, scientific, sexual, and, yes, culinary subcultures of this most essential realm. Siegel is an armchair Anthony Bourdain, armed not with a chef’s knife but with knowledge derived from medieval food-related manuscripts, ancient Chinese scrolls, and obscure culinary journals. Funny and fascinating, The Secret History of Food is essential reading for all foodies. 
  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

  Read by the author. 
  Is it possible to disagree politically and love unconditionally? The reaction of evangelicals to political and cultural shifts in recent years revealed what they value most. Lurking beneath our Bible-laced rhetoric, faith claims, books, and sermons is a relentless drive to WIN! 
  But the church is not here to win. By every human measure, our Savior lost. On purpose. With a purpose. And we are his body. We are not in it to win anything. We are in it for something else entirely. That something else is what this book is about. 
  You'll discover:How to take a stand the right way. You'll learn how to make your case with a posture of humility and understanding, rather than being fueled by the fear of losing something.How to view politics through the lens of faith. Learn curiously, listen intentionally, and love unconditionally.How the life of Jesus and his teaching applies to modern-day challenges in a fresh way. The "biblical" stand may not be what we've been taught. 
  Jesus never asked his followers to agree on everything. But he did call his followers to obey a new command: to love others in the same way he has loved us. Instead of asserting our rights or fighting for power, we need to begin asking ourselves: what does love require of me?

Diop proposes a unified state for greater global influence, emphasizing cultural revival and a common African language. Though debated, his vision continues to inspire Pan-Africanism and discussions on African unity and development.

  Every child should be able to manage their anger. Uncontrolled anger can destroy relationships and even stunt growth. You have to be deliberate when teaching your children about emotions and anger management. We have compiled beginner-friendly guides and tips in this book to assist parents in explaining emotions to their young children. The earlier children learn about their emotions, the better equipped they will be later in life. 
  Are you a guardian or parent who is unsure how to explain feelings and emotions to your children? Do you have trouble understanding and labeling your emotions? Do your children always throw tantrums? Is your child feeling left out because of a lack of emotional intelligence? Perhaps they are unaware of what triggers them or how to avoid a meltdown. This book has been written to answer all of your questions. 
  You will learn about emotions and the most basic ways to explain them to children aged 5-8. Children who struggle with their emotions, especially anger, benefit greatly from learning self- control.
