***THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*** "Jessie (a.k.a. the
Glucose Goddess) takes you on a fun and informative journey to
understand how food affects your sugar spikes and your health. This
practical guide is full of wonderful tips and hacks on how and what
to eat; a must for anyone who wants to understand their body and
improve their health." - Professor Tim Spector, author of Diet Myth
and Spoon Fed, professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College,
London "Glucose Revolution will help you feel better, cut cravings,
connect with yourself, balance your hormones, live longer, teach
you science and put a smile on your face along the way. This book
is one of my references - don't wait to read it." - Davinia Taylor,
British actor and #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of It's not a
Diet Dietary science is on the move. For decades, people were
wrongly focused on reducing fat and calories, whereas we now know
that the real trouble-makers are the foods that deregulate our
blood sugar levels. In writing both clear and empathetic,
biochemist Jessie Inchauspe explains why blood sugar spikes are so
bad for us and how to flatten those spikes to transform our health.
By analysing decades of research and running thousands of original
experiments on herself wearing a continuous glucose monitor, she
has distilled 10 simple and surprising hacks that can be easily
incorporated into everyday life. By the end of this book, you'll be
aware of how food impacts your biology. You'll know which breakfast
choices may be causing your cravings, in which order you should eat
the food on your plate, what not to do on an empty stomach, which
foods lead to mood swings, and how to avoid being sleepy at 3pm.
You'll evolve the way you eat, take control of your health, and
your life will flourish.
A life-changing guide to reclaiming your relationship with your
body-and yourself Have you ever thought that if only you could
change the way you looked, your life would be better? It's so easy
to imagine that by changing the outside of our bodies, we'd feel
better on the inside. But we all know that even if we could
magically attain a so-called "perfect" body, our problems wouldn't
actually be solved. That's because body image issues are never just
about the body: they're always about something deeper inside. As a
longtime personal trainer and coach, Jessi Kneeland has seen
hundreds of clients achieve their fitness goals but still feel
trapped in a web of body hatred, anxiety, obsession, and
dysmorphia. Searching for a solution, Kneeland set out on a quest
to discover what it truly takes to help people understand, process,
and heal their body image issues for good. They share their
discoveries in Body Neutral, where you'll learn: The power of "body
neutrality"-the ability to accept and respect your body, even if it
isn't the way you'd prefer it to be. Which of the four "body image
avatars"-each of which represents a different root cause for body
image issues-aligns with you and your relationship with your body:
the self-objectifier, the high achiever, the outsider, or the
runner. Actionable and unique methods to help you strip away the
layers of false meaning, excess power, moral significance, and
shame that have been preventing you from both connecting to and
appreciating your body, and feeling truly worthy as a person. There
is a reason you're unhappy with your body, and Body Neutral will
help you discover what that reason is and how to defuse its power,
freeing you to enjoy a life of true confidence, security, and
satisfaction.

Once a renowned textile artist, she's now the sole proprietor of an
arts supply store in Lower Manhattan. Divorced, alone, at loose
ends, C is stuck with a struggling business, a stack of bills, a
new erotic interest in her oldest girlfriend, and a persistent
hallucination in the form of a rogue garden gnome with a pointed
interest in systems collapse . . . C needs to put her medical debt
and her sex life in order, but how to make concrete plans with this
little visitor haunting her apartment, sporting a three-piece suit
and delivering impromptu lectures on the vulnerability of the
national grid? Moreover, what's all this computer code doing in the
story of her life? And do the answers to all of C's questions lie
with an eco-hacktivist cabal threatening to end modern life as we
know it? The Visitors is mordantly funny as it follows a woman
dealing with debt, lust and an unwelcome visitor in the last days
of a broken status quo. It peers into How We Got Here and asks What
We Do Next, whatever our personal hallucinations may be.
'A wise SatNav for what is often a bewildering, or even scary, zone
of parenting. The book offers real-world, road-tested, child-first
and family-friendly advice; while also highlighting the twin truths
that autism is not a tragedy, and that adaptation and acceptance
are not resignation' David Mitchell, bestselling author and
co-translator of The Reason I Jump 'A must-read for anyone with an
autistic child in their life' Laura James, author of Odd Girl Out
Written by Jessie Hewitson, an award-winning journalist at The
Times, Autism is the book she wishes she had read when her son was
first given the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. It combines
her own experiences with tips from autistic adults, other parents -
including author David Mitchell - as well as advice from autism
professionals and academics such as Professor Simon Baron-Cohen.
Autism looks at the condition as a difference rather than a
disorder and includes guidance on: · What to do if you think your
child is autistic · How to understand and support your child at
school and at home · Mental health and autism · The differences
between autistic girls and boys 'It is incredibly useful and
informative, full of new research and interviews that put right an
awful lot of misinformation. I cannot recommend this highly enough'

The Song of Achilles and Circe 'Gives the serpent-headed monster of

Ariadne and Elektra _________________ If I told you that I'd killed
a man with a glance, would you wait to hear the rest? The why, the
how, what happened next? Monster. Man-hater. Murderess. Forget
everything you've been told about Medusa. Internationally
bestselling author Jessie Burton flips the script in this
astonishing retelling of Greek myth, illuminating the woman behind
the legend at last. Exiled to a far-flung island after being abused
by powerful Gods, Medusa has little company other than the snakes
that adorn her head instead of hair. Haunted by the memories of a
life before everything was stolen from her, she has no choice but
to make peace with her present: Medusa the Monster. But when the
charmed and beautiful Perseus arrives on the island, her lonely
existence is blown apart, unleashing desire, love... and betrayal.
Adapted from the hardback illustrated by Olivia Lomenech-Gill, this
paperback edition is perfect for readers who loved Circe and
Ariadne, as Medusa comes alive in a new version of the story that
history set in stone long ago. _________________ '... a must-read

Niro), who was his father's partner. Malo, however, discovers that

Volodymyr Zelensky captivated the world when his country was
invaded by Russia in February 2022. His appearances were
accompanied by countless inspiring statements. But there's a single
one that informs Unlocking Your Inner Zelensky: "We are all simple
people." Jessie Kanzer sees Zelensky as a Spiritual Leader for Our
Times. As a native Russian speaker (like Zelensky himself), she
picks up on the deep philosophical ramifications behind his words.
Rich and yet easy-to-read, the life lessons in Unlocking Your Inner
Zelensky are accessible and wise, and are more about starting where
you are than about war. Kanzer herself has a bit part in Zelensky's
life story, acting in one of his movies filmed in the States. She's
a self-described "spiritual nerd" who followed Zelensky long before
he stood before a blue and yellow backdrop on the national stage.
She writes, "What is so incredible about our man Volodymyr is that
his belief in himself stems not from seeing himself as special, but
from seeing himself as ordinary and from knowing there is great
power in this ordinariness."

With her novels The Exhibition of Persephone Q and The Visitors,
Jessi Jezewska Stevens has proven herself as our preeminent
purveyor of comical, techno-millenarian unease. Now, with this
first collection of her acclaimed short fiction--originally
appearing in such venues as The Paris Review, Harper's and Tin
House--some of her very best work is at last readily available to
readers. Stevens's women throw disastrous parties in the post-party
era, flirt through landscapes of terror and war, and find
themselves unrecognizable after waking up with old flames in new
cities. They navigate the labyrinths of history, love, and ethics
in a fractured American present, seeing first-hand how history
influences the ways in which we care for--or neglect--one another.
With each story exemplifying Stevens's ability to examine the big
questions through the microscope of a shambolic human perspective,
Ghost Pains is a triumphant statement of purpose from one of our
greatest young writer-thinkers.
