Americans have spent millions on fad diet books trying to lose weight or just eat better. We've tried low fat. We switched to low-carbs. And it hasn't worked. And we may have risked illness and gotten fatter in the process. Despite all the promises of the diet bestsellers, two out of every three of us are overweight or obese. Even normal weight people have a hard time eating right. But there is hope - and real help. The UNCLE SAM DIET is based on the new 2005 US Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Based on solid science, it's an eating style that you can stay with and thrive on. No gimmicks here, and no fads. Dr. Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian and associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, uses the USDA's new dietary guidelines to design an eating plan based on good, wholesome foods. It's simple...it's safe...and it works! Lots of good foods--from all food groups-so you never feel hungry.Weekly menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks-you can even have a latte or two!Huge, hungry man's servings of vegetables and fruits-every dayDelicious whole grains-muffins, breads, bagels and moreNutritious snacks for hunger attacksGot kids? Great! These guidelines are good for anyone age 2 and older. So take your kids along on the trip to better eating. (They'll probably enjoy it too!) The new Dietary Guidelines are chock-full of great changes for you and your family. Dr. Ayoob takes the nutrition-ese out of the government's gobbledygook and gives you meal plans and recipes that are easy to use and delicious. The result? This Uncle Sam is here to stay. "Obesity is a disease of excess-excess calories and excess sedentary activities. The cure is to balance calories in with calories out."-Keith Ayoob (quoted in IFIC, Food Insight, March/April 2003)

Uncle Sam Needs Chemo is a long overdue assessment of the horrendous perils our nation is facing today. It describes the political misfeasance that stimulates the drug related vicious criminal violence that's been destroying the quality of life throughout our society since the mid 1950's, and the horrendously overcrowded conditions that have existed throughout our penal system since the mid 1960's from incarcerating hordes and hordes of our citizens for succumbing to the very temptations the politicians themselves have fostered with their failed federal drug policy. That very same political misfeasance is responsible for the out of control gun violence that's taken more lives right here on the streets of America during just the last fifteen years of the Twentieth Century than all our Armed Forces suffered in all the wars our nation fought throughout the entire Twentieth Century! Because of this political misfeasance, ever since the mid 1960's our nation has had the highest percentage of total population locked away in prison of any civilized nation on the entire face of the earth. And, that very same political misfeasance has taken prayer out of our schools and revoked the disciplinary rights of parents, teachers, and all the other local authority figures that used to control the emotional stability of our children until their psyches matured to the point where they were able to do so on their own. All that authority was transferred to the political establishment in Washington during the ultra-liberal bent that took control of our entire governing process in the early 1960's, which placed it completely out of reach for our emotionally confused children. The transfer of authority to control the emotional stability of our children to Washington had disastrous consequences, and it's all laid out in easily understandable terms in this text.

The first-ever biography of the seminal American director whose remarkable life traces a line through American entertainment history Acclaimed as the ultimate New York movie director, Sidney Lumet began his astonishing five-decades-long directing career with the now classic 12 Angry Men, followed by such landmark films as Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, and Network. His remarkably varied output included award-winning adaptations of plays by Anton Chekhov, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, and Eugene O’Neill, whose Long Day’s Journey into Night featured Katharine Hepburn and Ralph Richardson in their most devastating performances. Renowned as an “actor’s director,” Lumet attracted an unmatched roster of stars, among them: Henry Fonda, Sophia Loren, Marlon Brando, Anna Magnani, Sean Connery, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Newman, Al Pacino, Ethan Hawke, and Philip-Seymour Hoffman, accruing eighteen Oscar nods for his actors along the way. With the help of exclusive interviews with family, colleagues, and friends, author Maura Spiegel provides a vibrant portrait of the life and work of this extraordinary director whose influence is felt through generations, and takes us inside the Federal Theater, the Group Theatre, the Actors Studio, and the early “golden age” of television. From his surprising personal life, with four marriages to remarkable women—all of whom opened their living rooms to Lumet’s world of artists and performers like Marilyn Monroe and Michael Jackson—to the world of Yiddish theater and Broadway spectacles, Sidney Lumet: A Life is a book that anyone interested in American film of the twentieth century will not want to miss.

A wildly hilarious and irreverent memoir of a globe-trotting life lived meal-to-meal by one of our most influential and respected food critics As the son of a diplomat growing up in places like Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, Adam Platt didn’t have the chance to become a picky eater. Living, traveling, and eating in some of the most far-flung locations around the world, he developed an eclectic palate and a nuanced understanding of cultures and cuisines that led to some revelations which would prove important in his future career as a food critic. In Tokyo, for instance—“a kind of paradise for nose-to-tail cooking”—he learned that “if you’re interested in telling a story, a hair-raisingly bad meal is much better than a good one." From dim sum in Hong Kong to giant platters of Peking duck in Beijing, fresh-baked croissants in Paris and pierogi on the snowy streets of Moscow, Platt takes us around the world, re-tracing the steps of a unique, and lifelong, culinary education. Providing a glimpse into a life that has intertwined food and travel in exciting and unexpected ways, The Book of Eating is a delightful and sumptuous trip that is also the culinary coming-of-age of a voracious eater and his eventual ascension to become, as he puts it, “a professional glutton.”
