San Francisco has always been a city of transformation. From the nostalgic days of downtown shopping and grand movie palaces to newer buildings on the skyline and stunning neighborhood transformations, change has been a constant factor since the early days of European settlement in the late 1700s. Evidence of early San Francisco is still visible in the revitalized Ferry Building, repurposed as an artisan marketplace; in the celebrated neighborhood street fairs; and even in the enduring edifices of commerce and industry. The city of the future has its roots firmly planted in a much-loved past. City native and local history author Frank Dunnigan showcases the old city as well as the new one gradually emerging.

Do you look in the mirror and dislike what you see? Are you always trying different diets? Do you feel guilty if you overeat? You're not the only one. For sixteen years, model and actress Yaana Gupta struggled with her body and the way she felt about it. She tried every diet, worked out constantly but the fears remained. In How to Love Your Body (and get the body you love), Yaana writes about how she got the balance back in her life and learnt to love herself. Using her own experiences, she gives you easy to follow eating advice and the real lowdown on food from the right portions to eat to being healthy on the go. She also gives you great tips - how to understand the nutrition labels, the great dabba trick and the best snack to eat when you get a late-night hunger attack. Finally Yaana teaches you the greatest lesson of all - how you can learn to love and accept your body. Because without it, she argues, no weight loss will ever make you happy.
