Author: Jean-Martin Bauer
Narrator: Jean-Martin Bauer
A humanitarian leader with more than two decades of experience working for the United Nations takes aim at the global food crisis-revealing how hunger anywhere affects lives everywhere and what steps we can take to change course. At the turn of the twenty-first century, more than 150 countries pledged to eradicate hunger by 2030. But with only a few years left, we’re far from reaching that goal. Instead, hunger is on the rise-America itself recently experienced levels of food insecurity not seen since the Great Depression. How could the richest nation in the world have so many people going hungry? In The New Breadline, aid worker and activist Jean-Martin Bauer unravels this paradox. Bauer’s family fled to America during the terrors of the Duvalier dictatorship in Haiti. Now on the brink of mass starvation, Haiti and its grim history inspired Bauer to make food justice his life’s work.

Author: David Sherer
Narrator: Chuck Bowler
Preventable diseases are skyrocketing. Even our brains are changing. Here’s the science: New evidence shows that foods high in saturated fat, refined carbohydrates and sugar are causing hypothalamic inflammation and metabolic dysfunction, disrupting the normal function of the hunger and fullness hormones, ghrelin, and leptin. What does that mean? We’re making ourselves and our kids sick. We are chronically ill, overweight, seriously damaged people. HUNGER HIJACK is a blunt, pull-no-punches book by physician, author, and journalist Dr. David Sherer. In it, he reveals the evidence linking our diets and our ever-worsening health.

On September 13, 2016, in the small town of Ashland, Ohio, emergency dispatchers received a 911 call from a terrified woman who claimed to be kidnapped. The man holding her hostage was Shawn Grate, a serial killer whom the press later dubbed "The Ladykiller." A key to his conviction and death sentence were Grate’s extensive recorded confessions-all extracted by one woman: Detective Kim Mager. As an experienced specialist in sex offenses, Detective Mager was one of the officers assigned to Grate’s case upon his arrest.

English | 2006 | pages: 272 | ISBN: 0465071651, 0465071635 | EPUB | 0,4 mb
Every day, we wake up hungry. Every day, we break our fast. Hunger explores the range of this primal experience. Sharman Apt Russell, the highly acclaimed author of Anatomy of a Rose and An Obsession with Butterflies, here takes us on a tour of hunger, from eighteen hours without food to thirty-six hours to seven days and beyond. What Russell finds-both in our bodies and in cultures around the world-is extraordinary. It is a biological process that transcends nature to shape the very of fabric of societies. In a fascinating survey of centuries of thought on hunger’s unique power, she discovers an ability to adapt to it that is nothing short of miraculous. From the fasting saints of the early Christian church to activists like Mahatma Gandhi, generations have used hunger to make spiritual and political statements. Russell highlights these remarkable cases where hunger can inspire and even heal, but she also addresses the devastating impact of starvation on cultures around the world today. Written with consummate skill, a compassionate heart, and stocked with facts, figures, and fascinating lore, Hunger is an inspiring window on history and the human spirit.
