  In this fascinating, refreshingly clarifying book about food, food myths, and how sloppy science perpetuates misconceptions about food, a medical doctor on his way to a conference gets drawn into conversations that answer the following questions: Does vitamin C prevent the common cold? And if it works, why does it only work in Canadian soldiers, ultramarathon runners, and skiers? Was red meat really declared a carcinogen by the WHO? Does that mean I should become a vegetarian? And who decides what gets labeled as red meat and white meat? Is salt really not that bad for you and did a group of researchers really want to experiment on prisoners to prove the point? Does coffee cause cancer or heart attacks? Why did a California court say coffee needed a warning label? Is red wine really good for your heart, and what makes the French Paradox such a paradox? Why did the New England Journal of Medicine link eating chocolate with winning a Nobel Prize? Why were eggs once bad for you but now good for you again? Does that mean I don't need to worry about cholesterol? Should I be taking vitamin D?

  The Future of Agriculture

  Record rain fall and extreme climates have become a common occurrence around the world. The television news shows farmers standing in front of their flooded fields; the ground too wet to harvest one season's crop, or to plant the next. Our climate is changing, but agriculture is not just the victim of climate change - it is one of the major drivers too. Our food systems are responsible for around a third of all greenhouse gases.
  
  
  
  In this book, Sarah Bearchell explores how agriculture is using targeted breeding, automation and precision inputs to produce more with less. She considers how we can reduce our impact by addressing problems in our food system, from packaging and transport to the incredible quantities of waste. As consumers, we can make small changes straight away and push for long term change in the wider system. Agriculture can become a force for good, but it needs our help.

  Coding For Beginners - Learn the...

  Coding is a very important part of our reality today. It is one of the fabrics that enable the modern world to run efficiently. I know you'd like to learn to code, or at least you know someone who would like to learn to code. But, perhaps you are being held back by the phrase "coding is too hard." I remember a friend telling me this once when I told him of my intention to learn to code. He was like, "Are you serious, it is very hard. You'd actually have to be a genius to learn how to code. In fact, you'd have to be some kind of mad man". We both knew I was neither a genius nor a madman. Fast forward 2 years later, now I know to code. Not just that, I'm also teaching everyday men and women the fundamentals of the subject. 
  There are lots of job opportunities for coders and programmers today. In fact, coding jobs are growing at an astounding rate. If the Internet and data are the infrastructures, then coders are the construction workers. As long as there is infrastructure to be built, construction workers will always have work. It is believed that this trend will continue for a long time. Now is the time to position yourself to benefit from this trend. 
  In this book, you'll be learning the fundamentals of coding languages, how to become an expert in the shortest time possible, and much more. I have attempted to demystify coding because coding is not that difficult, and all you need is a good teacher. This book has been written with you (a beginner) in mind. So there is no unnecessary jargon or words that will fly over your head.
