Most diets fail because they rely on willpower alone. In this book surgeon and expert on metabolism Dr Andrew Jenkinson shows you how to unlock the secret to lasting weight loss through a better understanding of your brain, body and environment, allowing you to eat well and lose weight, forever.

Using a combination of cutting-edge metabolic science, together with strategies like aversion, habit creation and mental reprogramming, expert in the science of appetite Dr Andrew Jenkinson will show you how your body and brain work when it comes to what you eat, and how to arm yourself against the malicious presence of food marketing, junk food and the harmful effects of the Western diet.

You will learn:

· Why exercise is of secondary importance to energy balance
· How we can learn to 'crave surf', being more mindful of hunger cravings when they arise
· How junk foods affect our brains, influencing our behaviour and creating bad habits
· How to maintain a good metabolic rate when losing weight
· The science behind popular weight loss techniques and why they work, including hot water and lemon; raw foods; time restricted eating; keto diets and high intensity training

Filled with science-backed tips and techniques, this book will help you implement lasting changes, eat well and feel good.

This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It contains classical literature works from over two thousand years. Most of these titles have been out of print and off the bookstore shelves for decades. The book series is intended to preserve the cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of international literature classics available in printed format again - worldwide.

This book has everything students need to prepare effectively for the BTEC First in Application of Science exam (Unit 8: Scientific Skills). Each topic is clearly and colourfully summarised on a double-page spread, followed by two pages of accessible practice questions to test understanding of the key facts. There's also realistic Unit 8 practice paper for final exam preparation. All the answers are included at the back, making it ideal for independent study and revision.

South Africa's recent higher education protests around fees and decolonizing institutions have shone a spotlight on important issues and inspired global discussion. The educational space was the most affected by clashes between languages and ideas, the prioritizing of English and Afrikaans over indigenous African languages, and the prioritizing of Western medicine, literature, arts, culture, and science over African ones. Ethical Research Approaches to Indigenous Knowledge Education is a cutting-edge scholarly resource that examines forthcoming methodologies and strategies on educational reform and the updating of curricula to accurately reflect cultural shifts. The book examines the bias and problems that bias creates in educational systems around the world that have been dominated by Western forms of knowledge and scientific processes. Featuring a range of topics such as andragogy, indigenous knowledge, and marginalized students, this book is ideal for education professionals, practitioners, curriculum designers, academicians, researchers, administrators, and students.

Sea fortune has always been an issue of good faith and good navigation. While in antiquity, fortuna gubernatrix was praised for shielding the seaborne trade, in the Renaissance fortuna symbolized the conquest of chance and danger. Under such auspices, while relying on risk technologies modern seafaring has never lost its adventurous dimension. Understanding their origin remains a challenge for the history of science and the history of literature.

"Diabetes; Alternative Thoughts" takes a different approach to diabetes management. The book tries to explain the disease, its complications in simple language and gives evidences for effect of lifestyle and exercises in diabetes management. The chapters gives glimpses of Ayurvedic outlook for diabetes and some commonly used herbs in diabetes with scientific evidences.The author is not refuting the importance of conventional approaches in diabetes management or consider this book as a self help guide to treat diabetes.On the contrary tries to create an awareness among medical practitioners and the public to have a serious consideration of alternative methods which are equally powerful as prescription pills. It would serve as a mini reference book for medical practitioners and public.

Full color publication. The Coastal Engineering Manual (CEM) assembles in a single source the current state-of-the-art in coastal engineering to provide appropriate guidance for application of techniques and methods to the solution of most coastal engineering problems. The CEM provides a standard for the formulation, design, and expected performance of a broad variety of coastal projects. These projects are undertaken to provide or improve navigation at commercial harbors, harbor works for commercial fish handling and service facilities, and recreational boating facilities. As an adjunct to navigation improvements, shore protection projects are often required to mitigate the impacts of navigation projects. Beach erosion control and hurricane or coastal storm protection projects provide wave damage reduction and flood protection to valuable coastal commercial, urban, and tourist communities. Environmental restoration projects provide a rational layout and proven approach to restoring the coastal and tidal environs where such action may be justified, or required as mitigation to a coastal project's impacts, or as mitigation for the impact of some previous coastal activity, incident, or neglect. As the much expanded replacement document for the Shore Protection Manual (1984) and several other U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) manuals, the CEM provides a much broader field of guidance. Part II "Coastal Hydrodynamics" is organized to lead the reader from the fundamental principles of linear and other wave theories, including irregular waves and spectral analysis, to ocean wave generation and through the process of transformation as the wave approaches and reacts with the coastline. Analysis of water level variations including astronomical tides and storm surges are presented along with the hydrodynamics of coastal inlets and harbors are included in other chapters.

The book is a review of some basics notions in optics. The first chapter starts with a review of Newton's laws and planetary motion and some related equations. The second chapter deals with the planet earth's atmosphere; the third is an introduction to remote sensing. Chapter 4 and 5 introduce a background on Maxwell's laws in electromagnetism and light polarization. Some other topics of interest have been also developed. Among these topics are the light interaction with spherical surfaces and related equations, light Interference, linear polarization by anisotropy, Fourier transform spectroscopy, and an introduction to Lidar.

Challenge the scientific denial of the soul's existence with a book that proves that the brain is not the sole explanation behind human thought and behavior.

Casimir J. Bonk, a longtime engineer and student of metaphysics, has found physical scientific evidence of the nonphysical soul through his investigations of reincarnated subjects who can recall experiences from previous lives.

Discover why Descartes Was Right Souls Do Exist and Reincarnation Proves It. For instance: Dr. Ian Stevenson and others have shown that reincarnated subjects can recall details from past lives, proving that the brain is not the prime location of memory. If memory were physical, it would cease upon death. By contrasting metaphysical views of the world with scientific theories, an original description of human duality explains the true nature of humanity. Using an engineer's approach, uncover how the brain really works and why science fails to explain the memories of the reincarnated. Close the gap between the physical and nonphysical worlds and answer the questions about human nature that have haunted the world forever in Descartes Was Right Souls Do Exist and Reincarnation Proves It.

HARDBACK - A collection of essays on time by Samuel K. K. Blankson. His basic argument is that units of time (such as the year and its subdivisions down to the seconds and even the cesium units, etc.), replicate to make us see time as passing by. Time travel is not possible from his point of view and he goes on to reject the Minkowski theory of space-time as a distortion of relativity and physics as a whole.
