Paperback. Zustand: Good. THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ?Hilarious, and straight talking but also articulate and insightful ? I am just hugely fond of this guy? ?Eddie Jones ?James Haskell: what a flanker, what a book? ?Rugby World ?I?d like to be remembered as a player who showed that you can be incredibly professional but also a lot of fun ? a bit of a joker in the changing room, but the ultimate competitor on the pitch. That should have been the subtitle of this book, really?? One of rugby?s most ferocious flankers and biggest characters, James Haskell has had an extraordinary, global experience of the game, having played for the Wasps, Northampton and England, and in New Zealand, France and Japan. After seventeen years and with 77 international caps under his sizeable belt, he has a shitload to say about rugby life ? from pitch to pub and everywhere in between. In What A Flanker, Haskell sheds fresh light on the dynamics and the day-to-day of the game. Whether he?s recalling the most brutal team socials; dispelling the myths surrounding New Zealand?s dominance; introducing his Japanese teammates to manscaping or calling out play-acting in the modern game, no subject is off limits. Side-splittingly funny and ruthlessly honest, What A Flanker delves into the touring, drinking, training, eating and sometimes unconscionable antics of the professional rugby player. It?s an unforgettable read, even if there are some stories you?d rather forget.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Scientific proof is the platform upon which an effective treatment plan is build. Without proof we are subjected to speculation and quackery. Reviewing articles from over 70 medical journals and medical texts, Dr. Haskell clearly explains the cause of Hashimotos. If you think that thyroid antibodies are attacking, inflaming and destroying your thyroid you have been brainwashed with misinformation. Hashimotos is not the cause of thyroid inflammation, it is the result. and to effectively treat Hashimotos and to reduce thyroid antibodies you must treat the cause which is thyroid inflammation. Illness doesn't happen overnight. You don't suddenly wake up one morning with Hashimotos. Every single disease develops in stages over years and even decades. Hashimotos is no different. In Hope For Hashimotos, Dr. Haskell describes in detail the step-by-step development of thyroid inflammation which leads to Hashimotos and if we understand the origin of a disease and treat this origin, then the condition will recede, will reverse itself. Yet with Hashimotos, this reversal can be challenging. Here's the reason why. Most people with Hashimotos have not felt well for a long time, maybe 10-20 years. They've been to several physicians and even tried alternative medicine. But then one day someone finally does a blood test to find positive thyroid antibodies. Now they have the diagnosis of Hashimotos. They think this must explain the reason why they feel the way they do and they fall under the illusion that all their problems and symptoms are due to Hashimotos. In medicine we are blinded by linear thinking. Here is the diagnosis and here is the pill or supplement or psychological origin. I have Hashimotos. Give me anything to make it go away, and we grasp for straws. We want to believe in something, anyone who claims they know of a cure. People are desperately searching for something they haven't been able to find. No wonder there are one million google searches for Hashimotos each and every day. And what are people searching for? They want to know why they have Hashimotos and what they can do because their physicians are ignorant and don't have the answers. But unless you know the science and research behind Hashimotos you will gather a lot of misinformation and come in contact with a lot of quacks offering a single approach or product. And you fall into the trap of these wolves wanting something from you at your expense, often selling products that can do more harm than good. To treat Hashimotos, to reduce thyroid inflammation and thyroid antibodies, requires a broad approach using specific supplements, nutrition and often pharmacy. And even then, even when the person's thyroid inflammation is lowered, there are often other contributing factors causing symptoms unrelated to their thyroid antibodies. These can be low progesterone, low cortisol, poor gut ecology, a chronic infection such as chronic sinusitis, and many others. This is why it is an illusion for the person with Hashimotos to think that their feeling unwell is solely to the thyroid antibodies. This is often a difficult concept for people to acknowledge. Dr. Haskell's book is evidence of an effective, holistic approach, incorporating the best from both alternative and orthodox medicine, the way we all chronic conditions should be handled. Every suggestion for the treatment of Hashimotos is broken down into 3 phases. It is an honest, science based, and practical account of how to treat Hashimotos by reducing thyroid inflammation. We suggest before you consider purchasing this book that you view a series of videos we've produced on the subject of Hashimotos. These can be viewed on our site at http: //www.hopeforhashimotos.com/hashimotos-video-series/.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing AwardInjects much-needed vibrancy into the stuffy world of nature writing. --Outside, The Outdoor Books That Shaped the Last DecadeThe biologist and author of Sounds Wild and Broken combines elegant writing with scientific expertise to reveal the secret world hidden in a single square meter of old-growth forest In this wholly original book, biologist David Haskell uses a one-square-meter patch of old-growth Tennessee forest as a window onto the entire natural world. Visiting it almost daily for one year to trace nature's path through the seasons, he brings the forest and its inhabitants to vivid life. Each of this book's short chapters begins with a simple observation: a salamander scuttling across the leaf litter; the first blossom of spring wildflowers. From these, Haskell spins a brilliant web of biology and ecology, explaining the science that binds together the tiniest microbes and the largest mammals and describing the ecosystems that have cycled for thousands- sometimes millions-of years. Each visit to the forest presents a nature story in miniature as Haskell elegantly teases out the intricate relationships that order the creatures and plants that call it home. Written with remarkable grace and empathy, The Forest Unseen is a grand tour of nature in all its profundity. Haskell is a perfect guide into the world that exists beneath our feet and beyond our backyards.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. For this edition of her classic study of the feminine role in film, Molly Haskell has written a new chapter addressing recent developments in the appearance and perception of women in the movies. An incisive, exceedingly thoughtful look at the distorted lens through which Hollywood has historically viewed women. It is a valuable contribution not just of film criticism but to a society in which the vital role of women is just beginning to emerge.-Christian Science Monitor Haskell is interested in women-how they are used in movies, how they use movies, and how the parts they play function as projections and verifications of our myths about women's lot and woman's psyche and even, lately, women's lib.-Jane Kramer, Village Voice In examining the goddesses worshipped by an entire nation, Molly Haskell reveals a good deal about our national character and our most cherished sexual myths. . . . Concerned with the deeply ingrained belief of women's inferiority, she analyzes movies as a social product as well as a social arbiter, and she effectively demonstrates how women are encouraged to impose limitations on themselves by fashioning those selves after flickering shadows in a darkened auditorium-sexual creatures who possess neither ability nor ambition beyond their bodies. . . . Both as an examination of film and as sociology, From Reverence to Rape is excellent.-Harriet Kriegel, The Nation.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. American Purgatorio is the story of a happily married man who discovers, as he walks out of a convenience store, that his wife has suddenly vanished. In cool, precise prose, written as both a detective story and a meditation on the seven deadly sins, Haskell tells a story that ranges from the brownstones of New York City to the sandy beaches of Southern California. The novel follows the journey of a man whose object of desire is both heartbreaking and ephemeral, and confirms John Haskell's reputation as "one of those rare authors who makes language seem limitless in its possibilities" (Los Angeles Times).…
