Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The bestselling author of Diet for a New America shares the scientifically proven secrets of the world's healthiest and longest-lived people and shows how understanding their unique lifestyles can influence and improve our own longevity. "Healthy at 100 is a masterpiece."-Dean Ornish, M.D. "This is a remarkably open and heartfelt book full of wisdom and love. John Robbins has created a new vision of aging for American society"-John Mackey, CEO, Whole Foods In this revolutionary book, bestselling author John Robbins reveals the secrets for living an extended and fulfilling life. He explores the example of four very different cultures that have the distinction of producing some of the world's healthiest, oldest people: the Abkhasians in the Caucasus south of Russia, the Vilcabambans in the South American Andes, the Hunzans in Central Asia, and the people from the southern Japanese islands of Okinawa. Bringing the traditions of these ancient and vibrantly healthy cultures together with breakthroughs in medical science, Robbins reveals that, remarkably, they both point in the same direction: It is not diet and exercise alone that helps people to live well past one hundred. The quality of personal relationships is enormously significant for our longevity. In Healthy at 100, Robbins isolates the characteristics that will enable us to live long and-more important-joyous lives. With an emphasis on simple, wholesome, yet satisfying fare, a manageable daily exercise routine, and the cultivation of strong, loving relationships, Robbins gives us the tools for making our later years a period of wisdom, vitality, and happiness.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. From John Robbins, a new edition of the classic that awakened the conscience of a nation. Since the 1987 publication of Diet for a New America, beef consumption in the United States has fallen a remarkable 19%. While many forces are contributing to this dramatic shift in our habits, Diet for a New America is considered to be one of the most important. Diet for a New America is a startling examination of the food we currently buy and eat in the United States, and the astounding moral, economic, and emotional price we pay for it.In Section I, John Robbins takes an extraordinary look at our dependence on animals for food and the inhumane conditions under which these animals are raised. It becomes clear that the price we pay for our eating habits is measured in the suffering of animals, a suffering so extreme and needless that it disrupts our very place in the web of life. Section I challenges the belief that consuming meat is a requirement for health by pointing our the vastly increased rate of disease caused by pesticides, hormones, additives, and other chemicals now a routine part of our food production. The author shows us that the high health risk is unnecessary, and that the production, preparation, and consumption of food can once again be a healthy process. In Section I, Robbins looks at the global implications of a meat-based diet and concludes that the consumption of the resources necessary to produce meat is a major factor in our ecological crisis. Diet for a New America is the single most eloquent argument for a vegetarian lifestyle ever published. Eloquently, evocatively, and entertainingly written, it is a cant put down book guaranteed to amaze, infuriate, but ultimately educate and empower the reader. A pivotal book nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Non-Fiction in 1987.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. An inquiry into issues and concerns of the heart, this book seeks to touch the core of what it means to bring life into harmony and to discover a path amidst the contradictions that challenge us daily.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. How do you define the good life? For many, success is measured not by health and happiness but by financial wealth. But such a worldview overlooks the important things in life: personal contentment, family time, spirituality, and the health of the planet and those living on it. A preoccupation with money and possessions is not only unhealthy, it can also drain the true joy from life. In recent years, millions have watched their American Dreams go up in smoke. The international financial collapse, inflation, massive layoffs, and burgeoning consumer debt have left people in dire financial straits--including John Robbins, a crusader for planet-friendly food and lifestyle choices, who lost his entire savings in an investment scam. But Robbins soon realized that there was an upside to our collective financial downturn: Curtailed consumerism could lead us to reassess our lives and values. The New Good Life provides a philosophical and prescriptive path from conspicuous consumption to conscious consumption. Where the old view of success was measured by cash, stocks, and various luxuries, the new view will be guided by financial restraint and a new awareness of what truly matters. A passionate manifesto on finding meaning beyond money and status, this book delivers a sound blueprint for living well on less. Discover how to: --create your own definition of success based on your deepest beliefs and life experience --alleviate depression, lower blood pressure, and stay fit with inexpensive alternatives to high-cost medications --develop a diet that promotes better health--and saves you money --plan for, and protect yourself from, future economic catastrophes --cut down on your housing and transportation costs --live frugally without deprivation --follow in the footsteps of real people who have effectively forged new financial identities The New Good Life provides much-needed hope and comfort in a time of fear and uncertainty. Here is everything you need to develop high-joy, low-cost solutions to life's challenges. Practical and timely, this book equips you with the skills needed not only to survive but to thrive in these challenging times.…
