The short life of A.J.A. Symons (1900-41) was described by his biographer as an intricate and largely harmless confidence trick. His many interests included the collection of musical boxes and rare books as well as the study and practice of forgery; they left him time to edit an anthology of Edwardian verse and compose studies of H.M. Stanley and other notable figures. He is remembered for The Quest for Corvo, one of the most remarkable biographies ever written, and for co-founding the Wine and Food Society.

- More intelligence? No problem. 
- Eating pizza, burgers, drinking beer and being strong, fit and lean? Of course. 
- A wild sex life? Yes, there’s drugs-free fix for that too… 
 
The solution is in this book. Written by health pioneers and advisors to key influencers, including Tim Ferriss and Gary Vaynerchuk, Man 2.0 presents a unique 4-week diet and fitness plan to make you look and feel like the man you want to be. 
 
Clear and simple, the authors’ game-changing plan is the culmination of 10 years of work and research into the science of natural hormone optimisation.

Within the first week you will feel better in terms of brain functioning, energy and sex drive; within two you will start to notice fat loss; and by the end of four weeks you can expect to have lost on average 8–11lbs (3–5kg) of fat and gained about 1–3lbs (½–1 ½kg) of muscle.

In Japan, people live longer than anywhere else on Earth; obesity is virtually unknown, and 40-year-old women look like they're 20. The secret: Japanese homestyle cooking, and an approach to eating that is not about self-deprivation, but about celebrating and savouring food. 
 
Raised in Tokyo and on her grandparents' mountainside farm, author Naomi Moriyama first travelled to the West as a college student, and promptly gained 25 pounds eating an American diet. Returning home for the holidays, she found that the weight melted off as she returned to the healthy, soulful food of her mother's tiny kitchen: satisfying soups, fresh vegetables, delicate grilled fish; mouthwatering meals that never left her feeling hungry. 
 
Filled with delicious healthy recipes and evocative reminiscences, this book is for all those who are tired of counting calories and carbs, and finding themselves on diets that don't work. Japanese Women Don't Get Old or Fat offers a delightfully fresh and easy approach to weight loss and promises readers a healthier, slimmer, and longer lifestyle.

The New 5 Day Miracle Diet is a weight-loss and high-energy programme that changes your body chemistry so you will never have to diet again. Based on the simple idea that the reason we gain weight is because we cannot control food cravings, this programme alters our body's biochemistry so that we don't crave sugary, fatty foods. In just five days, Adele Puhn teaches you how to control these cravings by learning to eat certain foods at certain times. You begin the morning 'in low blood sugar'; by noon, you have raised your blood sugar level; throughout the afternoon and evening you will maintain it. The result is that you will not only lose weight, but you will have more energy than you have ever had before. The New 5 Day Miracle Diet is a diet that really works. Try it today and change your life for ever.

Gudrun Jonsson

There is no such thing as a panacea diet to suit every digestion. Each one of us comes into the world with our own individual set of generic strengths and weaknesses, which we tend either to capitalise on or undermine through food fads or preferences. Good health and its maintenance depend on our ability to assess the state of our digestion and to select and prepare foods that are appropriate to that state. 
 
These simple truths form the cornerstone of Gudrun Jonsson's new book The Gut Reaction Eating Plan. It demonstrates that it is possible to enjoy a delicious and broad range of foods against a background of what may seem to be chronic difficulties with digestion - simply by recognising your problem and eating only what is best for you. The book is packed with mouthwatering recipes that are coded to tie in with the many and varied eating plans, as well as tips for overcoming colds and hangovers. It even suggests how you can stay better once you are better.
