Synopsis

Surprising Food Myths tackles the pervasive food-related beliefs that shape our eating habits and cultural identities. It examines common myths, like whether sugar truly causes hyperactivity in children, and explores the surprising realities behind them, drawing from scientific literature, historical records, and expert interviews. The book reveals how folklore, marketing, and scientific misunderstandings contribute to the creation and persistence of these myths, often impacting our health and dietary choices. Did you know the "five-second rule" has some basis in surface science, or that the advice to wait before swimming after eating is more about pool crowding than cramps?

 
The book begins by exploring the origins and psychology behind food myths, then dismantles specific myths related to nutrition, food safety, and cooking techniques. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the science behind our food beliefs to make informed decisions. By presenting complex information in an accessible style and avoiding technical jargon, Surprising Food Myths empowers readers to critically evaluate food-related information, unravel cultural biases, and adopt healthier eating habits. The book concludes with actionable advice on navigating dietary choices.

    If a friendship lasts longer than fifteen years, you're no longer friends. You're family. 
    Since childhood, Lorna has been curious about Germany and her ancestral roots there. She was fourteen when her great-grandfather died, a man who was born in what is now part of Ukraine but who was a self-proclaimed, proud German. 
    Having grown up during the Cold War, Lorna had always viewed the former East and West Germany as being starkly different until 1999, when she met Christine, a woman from the former East Germany who became one of Lorna's closest lifetime friends. 
    Over twenty-five years, Lorna made several trips to Germany in search of the world's largest cuckoo clock, a hotel in Berlin where guests can sleep in a coffin or prison cell, another hotel along the Rhein River that is owned by a family who may or may not be Lorna's distant relatives, sausage that meets the Nuremberg Sausage Protection Association's standards, and the best view of Neuschwanstein Castle. 
    In her most recent memoir, travel and humour writer Lorna Stuber tells of her adventures in Germany while she reconnects with and learns more about her familial ties to Europe.

    'I often sit by the bank of the small river that flows through our farm in County Wicklow, fascinated by its many moods ... Getting to know a river is like reading the story of a person's life ...  from its young energetic stages in the hills to the slower-moving mature river, through to the tranquil water of lakes and finally to its resting place in the sea.'
    Richard Nairn is an ecologist who has been visiting waterways around Ireland for over half a century, fascinated by how they sustain and enrich our lives. Here he sets out on a year-long adventure to explore every stretch and tributary of the Avonmore River, which runs through Co. Wicklow. From source to sea, he immerses himself in the wildlife, archaeology, history and people connected to the river. Travelling to explore more of Ireland's rivers, lakes, wet woodlands, ponds and canals, Richard details encounters with dragonflies, crayfish, otters and great flocks of migratory waterbirds, and finds himself awestruck by the sense of a lost wilderness they convey.
    With our waterways now under serious threat, this is a love letter to Ireland's rivers and lakes, and a reminder of what we stand to lose.
    'Opens the window into a watery world. Personal yet panoramic.' Colin Stafford-Johnson, filmmaker.

    The aeroplanes of the Shuttleworth Collection span the first 40 years of aviation from the 1909 Blériot to the late 1940s; these rare and often unique machines are still regularly flown and displayed over the aerodrome at Old Warden in Bedfordshire. This book, written by the Collection's pilots, past and present, puts the reader in the cockpits of these amazing machines as they fly over the English countryside. THE SHUTTLEWORTH COLLECTION is a private collection begun by Richard Shuttleworth – pilot, racing driver, self-taught mechanic and heir to the Old Warden Park Estate in Bedfordshire. He had a passion for rescuing old aircraft and vehicles, which he brought to the Estate to restore and maintain. Richard died in 1940 whilst flying with the RAF; after the war his mother set up a charity to preserve his heritage.
