Sinossi

Puberty Craves Nutrients explores the vital connection between nutrition and adolescent health during the transformative years of puberty. It emphasizes how specific nutrients, especially zinc, profoundly impact hormonal balance, hormone production, and overall well-being. The book argues that adequate intake of key nutrients is essential for supporting healthy hormonal development and addressing common challenges during this period of rapid growth and change.

The book uniquely uses medical data to illustrate the direct impact of zinc levels on sex hormone production, growth, and immune function. For instance, it highlights that sufficient zinc, often found in nuts and seeds, is critical for optimal hormone production.

The book takes a comprehensive approach, beginning with an introduction to the physiological changes of puberty and the roles of hormones such as testosterone and estrogen, and then moving into detailed discussions of individual nutrients.

The book progresses from foundational knowledge of hormone and nutrient interactions to practical dietary guidelines. It emphasizes obtaining essential nutrients like zinc from whole food sources whenever possible, offering sample meal plans to optimize nutrient intake.

By bridging biology, nutrition, and adolescent health, this book offers valuable, data-driven insights for parents, educators, healthcare professionals, and adolescents seeking to support healthy pubertal development through informed dietary choices.

New York's Secret Subway - The...

Matthew Algeo

In the nineteenth century, Manhattan's streets were so choked with pedestrians, horses, vehicles, and vendors that a trip from City Hall to Central Park could take hours. Alfred Beach had the perfect solution: build a giant pneumatic tube underneath Broadway from the Battery to Harlem. Air pressure would shoot passengers up and down the island in clean, quiet carriages. But Beach was up against the operators of the horse-drawn streetcars and the politicians in their pay, most conspicuously William M. Tweed, the notorious "Boss" of Tammany Hall.New York's Secret Subway: The Underground Genius of Alfred Beach and the Origins of Mass Transit tells a classic story of good versus evil, pitting the mild-mannered Beach, a visionary inventor and entrepreneur, against the oafish tyrant Tweed, the exemplar of corruption in the Gilded Age. It also tells the story of one of the most astonishing feats of engineering in American history, the surreptitious creation of the nation's first operational subway. Unfortunately, political lethargy and greed would conspire to deny the city a subway for another thirty years. Yet Alfred Beach still proved conclusively the feasibility of underground railways in Manhattan, and paved the way for modern mass transportation systems. Although this true story took place more than a century ago, it will at times sound surprisingly familiar.

Bringing Up Beaver - Two...

John Aberth

A lively and engaging account of one human's relationship with a remarkable and charming orphaned beaver kit.On May 10, 2020, an orphaned beaver kit was found in St. Albans, Vermont and handed over to John Aberth, a licensed volunteer wildlife rehabilitator. Over the next two years, John raised the kit, whom he nicknamed "BK," and prepared him for release back into the wild. During that time, John and BK developed a special and unique bond, which John documented in a daily diary. That diary became the basis for Bringing Up Beaver, a lively and engaging account of one human's relationship with a wild animal.Bringing Up Beaver is more than just a feel-good story about human encounters with nature. Full of fascinating observations about beaver behavior and biology, Bringing Up Beaver also documents the unique challenges and obstacles to be faced and overcome in rehabbing a wild beaver kit. Populating the story are plenty of other wild creatures that John encountered in the course of his rehab, including other beavers—one of whom became BK's mate—as well as hawks, owls, mink, and weasels. For anyone who has been charmed by a beaver's smile or enjoyed books like Fox and I and Eager, Bringing Up Beaver is a must-listen that will give us a new perspective on the wildlife and nature that exists all around us.

Impasse - Climate Change and the...

Roy Scranton

A Next Big Idea Club "Must Read" for August 2025! 
 
Extreme heat, fires, floods, and storms are transforming our planet. Yet we get increasing emissions, divisive politics, and ersatz solutions that offer more of the same: more capitalism, more complexity, more "progress." 
 
The impasse we face is not only political and institutional, but cognitive, existential, and narrative. We're incapable of grasping the scale, speed, and impact of global warming. And we optimistically cling to a narrative that promises a better tomorrow if we just keep doing what we're doing. 
 
It's past time to free ourselves from our dangerous and dogmatic faith. Such unwarranted optimism will accelerate our disintegration. If we want to have hope for the future, it must be grounded in a recognition of human limits—a view Scranton calls ethical pessimism. 
 
Scranton describes the challenges we face in making sense of our predicament, from problems in communication to questions of justice, from the inherent biases in human perception to the difficulties of empirical knowledge. What emerges is a challenging but hopeful proposition: if we have the courage to accept our limits, we may find a way to embrace our future.
