CNN chief medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta, MD, offers an accessible, data-packed answer to our biggest questions about Covid-19: What have we learned about this pandemic and how can we prepare for—or prevent—the next one?
As America’s favorite frontline Covid-19 health journalist, Dr. Sanjay Gupta has barely left his primetime seat in his makeshift studio basement since the pandemic began (other than to perform brain surgery). He’s had the insider of insider access to the drama’s unfolding, including exclusive conversations with the world’s top public health experts and behind-the-scenes scientists racing to find treatments and cures. And now he’s sharing what he’s learned in a book that will answer not only all our questions about what happened, but also about how our world will change in the years ahead, even once we’re back to “normal.”
Gupta argues that we need to prepare for a new era where pandemics will be more frequent, and possibly even more deadly. As the doctor who’s been holding America’s hand through the crisis with compassion, clarity, and well-earned wisdom, he gives you the unvarnished story behind the pandemic, including insights about the novel virus’s behavior, and offers practical tools to ready ourselves for what lies ahead. He answers critical questions: Can we stamp out the virus for good (and if not, how do we live with it)? Should we put our parents in a nursing home? Where should we live? What should we stockpile? What should we know before taking a trip? Does it make sense to spend more on health insurance to deal with any long-term effects? How do you decide when it’s safe to go to a public pool or schedule elective surgery? What should Covid survivors know about protecting their future health? What if you become a long-hauler with chronic health challenges stemming?
World War C will give you hope for the future along with real information that leaves you more resilient and secure.
We would all love to eat less carbohydrates and switch to a low-carb diet, but many of us think we just do not have the time. We believe that low-carb cooking and baking are time consuming, because you have to start from scratch, and it involves specialised ingredients which may be expensive or hard to find. Not so, says Vickie de Beer, who believes the problem lies in the fact that we have become afraid of the kitchen and lost the know-how of basic cooking techniques. The truth is that you can still cook nutritional and flavourful meals without refined carbohydrates even when you are pressed for time.
In Low-carb Express, Vickie shows that with a little planning and better time management, you can cook healthy meals in a cinch that will not only benefit you and your family’s overall health, but might also benefit your budget. In Low-carb Express, you plan your meals around your available time. Whether you have five minutes to whip up a nutritionally dense egg scramble or immune-boosting smoothie, or half an hour to make a delicious low-carb bobotie or the best-ever low-carb cupcakes, Vickie proves that there is no such thing as too little time to make healthy food choices.
With recipes that take between five and thirty minutes to prepare, there really are no more excuses!
Scattered Minds explodes the myth of attention deficit disorder as
genetically based - and offers real hope and advice for children
and adults who live with the condition. Gabor Mate is a revered
physician who specializes in neurology, psychiatry and psychology -
and himself has ADD. With wisdom gained through years of medical
practice and research, Scattered Minds is a must-read for parents -
and for anyone interested how experiences in infancy shape the
biology and psychology of the human brain. Scattered Minds: -
Demonstrates that ADD is not an inherited illness, but a reversible
impairment and developmental delay - Explains that in ADD, circuits
in the brain whose job is emotional self-regulation and attention
control fail to develop in infancy - and why - Shows how
'distractibility' is the psychological product of life experience -
Allows parents to understand what makes their ADD children tick,
and adults with ADD to gain insights into their emotions and
behaviours - Expresses optimism about neurological development even
in adulthood - Presents a programme of how to promote this
development in both children and adults
'Groundbreaking' Tara Brach Depression. Anxiety. Chronic pain.
Phobias. Obsessive thoughts. The evidence is compelling: the root
of these difficulties may reside in the traumas of our parents,
grandparents and even great-grandparents. The latest research
affirms that traumatic experience is passed on to future
generations and that this emotional inheritance, hidden in
everything from our gene expression to everyday language, plays a
greater role in our health than ever previously understood.
Building on the work of leading experts in neuroscience and
posttraumatic stress, Mark Wolynn has developed a pioneering
approach to identifying and breaking these inherited family
patterns. Having worked with individuals and groups on a
therapeutic level for more than twenty years, It Didn't Start With
You is his accessible, pragmatic and transformative guide to a
method that has helped thousands of people reclaim their lives.
'If you only read one diet or nutrition book in your life, make it
this one' Bee Wilson 'A devastating, witty and scholarly
destruction of the shit food we eat and why' Adam Rutherford --- An
eye-opening investigation into the science, economics, history and
production of ultra-processed food. It's not you, it's the food. We
have entered a new 'age of eating' where most of our calories come
from an entirely novel set of substances called Ultra-Processed
Food, food which is industrially processed and designed and
marketed to be addictive. But do we really know what it's doing to
our bodies? Join Chris in his travels through the world of food
science and a UPF diet to discover what's really going on. Find out
why exercise and willpower can't save us, and what UPF is really
doing to our bodies, our health, our weight, and the planet (hint:
nothing good). For too long we've been told we just need to make
different choices, when really we're living in a food environment
that makes it nigh-on impossible. So this is a book about our
rights. The right to know what we eat and what it does to our
bodies and the right to good, affordable food.

In 2018, Alastair McAlpine, a palliative paediatrician in Cape Town,
decided to share some inspiring thoughts from the children in his care.
He posted: ‘I asked some of my terminal paediatric palliative care
patients what they had enjoyed in life, and what gave it meaning. Kids
can be so wise, y’know. Here are some of the responses.’
Their simple yet profound answers went viral, found their way into
homes across the world and touched the hearts of millions. Yet it was
never McAlpine’s plan to find himself in this position. Challenged from
all sides by crippling addiction, a brutal internship and a deadly HIV
pandemic, McAlpine’s journey was very nearly derailed.
Prescription: Ice Cream is his engaging memoir about the highs and lows
of working as a medical doctor in South Africa and how, with a little
help from metal music and ice cream, he was able to struggle on, find
meaning in the chaos and inspire others.
