  REALIGN YOUR LIFESTYLE TO YOUR NATURAL DESIGN 
  Break the fast-expanding bubble created by today’s new culture. Your modern lifestyle, enforced by the toxic cultural bubble, does not match your natural, inherited design and even acts against it. 
  The rapid progress of modern science and technology has provided us with incredible capabilities, yet it has also brought us more ways to harm ourselves. The toxicity of the bubble comes only in part from unnatural, artificial, harmful chemicals in our food and environment. Worse, it encourages us to replace healthy, good habits with new, harmful ones. 
  This mismatch between our lifestyle and our design, which humanity did not see until a few decades ago, is damaging our physical and mental health. It creates weakness and unnecessary suffering. It is the root cause of most chronic diseases today, which are increasing rapidly, even in the young. From the water we drink and the way we eat to how we give birth nowadays, many things have changed for the worse. 
  Aided by technological advances, our culture is resetting the values of previous generations and disconnecting us from who we are, from nature, and from our ancestors' wisdom. This greatly amplifies our self-destructive, natural human inclination to abuse and damage ourselves and others. But it doesn’t need to be this way anymore. 
  I provide step-by-step instructions on how to successfully detox and achieve true, complete health—physical, mental, and spiritual. I explain why so many modern diets work temporarily but fail to succeed long-term and show you how to overcome this issue.  
  Only you can harness your almost unlimited inner resources to steer yourself out of the damaging bubble and onto the road of health and purpose. Are you ready to break your bubble?

  The World According to Proust

  Joshua Landy

  Marcel Proust (1871-1922) was arguably France's best-known literary writer. He was the author of stories, essays, translations, and a 3,000-page novel, In Search of Lost Time (1913-27). 
   
   
   
  This book is a brief guide to Proust's magnum opus in which Joshua Landy invites the listener to view the novel as a single quest—a quest for purpose, enchantment, identity, connection, and belonging—through the novel's fascinating treatments of memory, society, art, same-sex desire, knowledge, self-understanding, self-fashioning, and the unconscious mind. 
   
   
   
  Landy also shows why the questions Proust raises are important and exciting for all of us: how we can feel at home in the world; how we can find genuine connection with other human beings; how we can find enchantment in a world without God; whether an artist's life can shed light on their work; what we can know about the world, other people, and ourselves; when not knowing is better than knowing; how sexual orientation affects questions of connection and identity; who we are, deep down; what memory tells us about our inner world; why it might be good to think of our life as a story. Finally, Landy suggests why it's worthwhile to read the novel itself—how the long, difficult, but joyous experience of making it through 3,000 pages of prose can be transformative for our minds and souls.

  Underground and Underwater in...

  Editors Charles River

  Most books and documentaries about the war focus on the carnage of the trenches, depicting the ceaseless bombardment and sniping, and the assaults and counterattacks that took millions of lives. This was the experience of most frontline soldiers during that great conflict, but it was not the only experience. There was another war going on beneath the trenches, a war of tunnels and mines fought by men who didn’t see sunlight for days at a time and who lived in constant fear of cave-ins and enemy detection. These men, who had mostly been miners in civilian life, lived a twilight existence, working long hours in silence and near darkness while great battles raged overhead. They suffered from fatigue, stress, and the knowledge that they could be killed at any time by an unseen enemy. Despite this, they persevered, and the mines they laid under enemy trench systems turned the tide of at least one major battle.  
  	The sleek hunter-killers lurking beneath the waves, using periscopes to close in unnoticed on their prey, added a new, nerve-wracking element to naval warfare. The mere threat of submarine attack immediately altered naval tactics and strategies employed by both the Western Allies and the Central Powers, shifting them towards a more cautious approach, especially at the war’s start when the submarine threat remained untested. 	During World War I, German U-boats operated solo except on one occasion. Initially, the British and nations supplying England with food and materiel scattered vessels singly across the ocean, making them vulnerable to the lone submarines. However, widespread late war re-adoption of the convoy system tipped the odds in the surface ships' favor.
