Summary

Food Cravings offers a comprehensive look into the science behind those overwhelming urges for specific foods, addressing the complex relationship between cravings, eating patterns, and weight management. Unlike simple hunger, cravings involve intricate biological, psychological, and environmental factors. For example, the book explores how dopamine and serotonin, key neurotransmitters, play a crucial role in the brain's craving response. It also reveals how emotional eating and stress can significantly intensify these urges. The book uniquely integrates diverse fields like neuroscience, psychology, and nutrition, moving past simple willpower solutions to offer a holistic understanding. Readers will discover that managing cravings effectively involves dietary modifications, exercise, and behavioral interventions. Beginning with fundamental concepts and the difference between hunger and cravings, the book progresses through neurological and hormonal underpinnings, then psychological influences, and finally, practical strategies for craving management.

    You were never meant to fit in. 
    You were meant to remember. 
    A Knew Knowledge doesn't shout—it stirs. It pulls back the curtain on a world that feels familiar but never quite made sense. It doesn't offer answers so much as it sharpens your questions. The kind that changes how you see everything. 
    Each chapter peels back a layer of the world you thought you knew—revealing not something new, but something forgotten. 
    You won't find conclusions here. You'll find doors. 
    And once opened, they don't close.

    An empathetic, funny, and sharply critical collection of essays exploring the Christian pop culture of the 2000s and its influence on today’s politically powerful evangelicalism
    		 
    “Braiding relentless curiosity, sharp argument, and wry comedy, Kidd offers a lucid critique of evangelicalism that is always attentive to, and respectful of, the mysteries of faith. This is cultural criticism at its finest. I’ll read anything Kidd writes.” — Tajja Isen, author of Some of My Best Friends
    		
    		 
    In 1999, after three years of secular living in Eastern Europe, Joelle Kidd moved back to Canada and was enrolled in the strange world of an evangelical Christian school. Immediately, she found herself in a strange world of upbeat Christan pop music, purity education, and desperately trendy Bible redesigns, trying to make sense of this unfamiliar preteen cultural landscape.
    		 
     In Jesusland, Joelle writes about the Christian pop culture that she was suddenly immersed in, from perky girl bands to modest styling tips, and draws connections between this evangelical subculture and the mainstream, a tense yet reciprocal relationship that both disavows the secular while employing its media markers. But none of this was just about catchy songs; every abstinence quiz in a teen magazine was laying the foundation for what would become a conservative Christian movement that threatens women’s healthcare, attacks queer and trans rights, and drives present-day political division.
    		 
    Through nine incisive, honest, and emotional essays, Jesusland exposes the pop cultural machinations of evangelicalism, while giving voice to aughts-era Christian children and teens who are now adults looking back at their time measuring the length of their skirts, and asking each other if their celebrity crush was Christian enough. With care and generosity, Jesusland shows us how the conservative evangelical movement became the global power it is today by exploring the pop culture that both reflected and shaped an entire generation of young people.

    Born with the proverbial silver spoon in her mouth, the Honorable Diana Frances Spencer attained wealth, power, and title with her marriage to Charles, Prince of Wales. But her ultimate triumph owed nothing to those circumstances and everything to her inner qualities: an innate ability to understand and connect with ordinary people, particularly the desperately sick, the rejected, the "unloved." Biographer and journalist Peter Donnelly recounts the remarkable story of Diana's unhappy childhood, her fairy tale marriage, and the recriminations and unhappiness surrounding her divorce—and in particular, how Diana captured hearts all over the world to become the people's princess.

    Fighting Back is the story of Stan Andrews, an assimilated American Jew and World War II veteran who became one of the first fighter pilots in the history of the Israeli Air Force. 
     
     
     
    In 1948, Stan Andrews left a comfortable postwar life in Los Angeles to travel to the war-torn Middle East, where a four-front Arab invasion threatened to destroy the newly-declared State of Israel. There he joined the Israeli Air Force and became one of its first fighter pilots. Andrews was an unexpected volunteer for the fight for a Jewish state. He was many things—an artist, writer, assimilated Jew, ladies' man, pilot, and combat veteran of the Pacific War. He had previously been aloof from the struggle for Jewish independence but found himself so roused by the anti-Semitism of 1940s America that he decided to go to Israel and risk everything. Stan made the most of his time in Israel, serving in fighter and bomber squadrons and leaving his mark on an Israeli Air Force that has since become the stuff of legend.
