Povestea celui mai subestimat organ al corpuluiCheia unei vie?i mai s?n?toase ?i mai fericite se afl? ?n?untrul nostru.De?i intestinul este aproape la fel de important ca inima sau creierul, ?tim foarte pu?ine lucruri despre el. Giulia Enders ne arat? c?, departe de a fi doar acea parte utilitar? ?i – trebuie s? recunoa?tem – cam jenant? a corpului, a?a cum ne imagin?m, este unul dintre organele cele mai complexe, mai importante ?i chiar miraculoase ale anatomiei umane. Iar oamenii de ?tiin?? abia sunt pe cale s? descopere c?t de mult are acesta de oferit. Noi cercet?ri arat? c? bacteriile intestinale pot juca un rol ?ntr-o gam? larg? de afec?iuni, cum ar fi obezitatea, alergiile ?i Alzheimer.Pornind de la experien?a personal? a bolii care a inspirat munca ei de cercetare ?i continu?nd prin a explica totul de la fundamentele absorb?iei nutrimentelor la ultimele descoperiri ?tiin?ifice care leag? bacteriile intestinale de depresie, Enders a scris o carte de s?n?tate antrenant? ?i informativ?. ?armul discret al intestinului ne arat? f?r? t?gad? c? putem s? beneficiem cu to?ii de pe urma cunoa?terii minunatei lumi a func?ion?rii noastre interne.Mesajul autoarei este simplu: dac? ne trat?m bine intestinele, ?i ele ne vor trata le fel de bine. Dar cum ?i de ce trebuie s? facem asta? Putem afla citind aceast? surprinz?tor de agreabil? explorare a celui mai subestimat dintre organele noastre.?Cu entuziasm ?i un sim? al umorului foarte dezvoltat, Enders explic? tot ceea ce cititorii voiau ?i nu voiau s? ?tie despre intestinele lor... cartea aceasta sfideaz? plictiseala.“ – Publishers Weekly?Surprinz?tor, cartea se cite?te ca un thriller. Entuziasmul autoarei fa?? de subiectul tratat este contagios. Desenele alb-negru realizate de sora ei reu?esc s? aduc? un plus de informa?ii ?ntr-o manier? amuzant?. E ?mbucur?toare absen?a re?etelor ?i a limbajului tipic pentru c?r?ile de self-help.“ – Self Magazine

Ever wondered what to do in polite society if you find an insect in your food? Or how a gentleman should ask a lady to dance? And what on earth is the etiquette for smoking cigars? First published in 1860, Cecil B. Hartley's classic guide to gentlemanly behaviour is a veritable mine of information and indispensable advice for aspiring gentlemen. No matter if a man finds himself at a party, meeting someone new or travelling abroad, he has but to leaf through this book to learn how best to behave, and indeed how not to behave. And if he can find time between his numerous invitations to balls and hunting parties, he could benefit from a perusal of the sections on gentlemanly deportment and conversational technique. Not forgetting, of course, the all-important advice on how to treat ladies, surely an integral part of any true gentleman's training. Published here in a stunning edition alongside The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, this is the perfect gift for the would-be gentleman in your life. While it's an excellent volume for dipping into for hilarious nuggets of outdated advice, this guide also contains advice on all manner of topics, from beard-keeping to chivalry, that are just as relevant today as they were in Cecil B. Hartley's time. As he says himself: 'Once a gentleman always a gentleman' and be sure that you can so carry out the rule, that in your most careless, joyous moments, when freest from the restraints of etiquette, you can still be recognizable as a gentleman by every act, word, or look.
