Growing Life
As modern farming and ranching evolve away from mass consolidation and industrialization, a new strategy is rapidly emerging: regenerative agriculture. These new systems being implemented across the globe require a shift in the mindset of the land manager and operator, away from being primarily reliant on external inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides, and toward reliance on knowledge, measurement and management. In this first-of-its-kind book, André Leu casts aside judgment of our agriculture system today, and invites all to start moving a positive direction that focuses on growing abundant life. Inside this book, the first in a series, you will explore the fundamentals of regenerative...

Our Ageing Brain
An international bestseller delivering good news on brain function and ageing We all worry sometimes that our brains — particularly our memories — just don’t work as well as they used to. In this illuminating book, internationally acclaimed Dutch neuroscientist André Aleman shows that although the decline in our mental capacities begins earlier than we think, this is not such a bad thing. In fact, older people are more resistant to the effects of stress, cope better with their emotions and with complex situations, and are — generally speaking — happier than their younger counterparts. Our Ageing Brain will change the way we think about age and mental acuity. Drawn from the latest ...

André Lefebvre, and the Cars He Created at Voisin and Citroën
Together with his colleagues at Citroën, Andre Lefebvre created the Traction Avant (1934), the TUB (1939) – Citroën's first front wheel drive utility van that was succeeded by the H and HY vans (1947) – the Deux Chevaux (1948), and, last but not least, the DS (1955). From 1923 to 1931 Lefebvre also designed several highly original and outstanding competition cars and record-breaking automobiles for Voisin. He even drove some these cars in races and record attempts. It is obvious that during his 16 years with Gabriel Voisin he was very much influenced by the ideas of this illustrious aviation pioneer and car manufacturer. The experience gained during that period gave him the self-confid...

An ordinary hero doing something extraordinary for her mates. Far from an elite athlete, Alexandra Andre bounced from one running injury to the next for the best part of five years before deciding to take part in the toughest one-day sporting event in the world. Without an ounce of confidence she could achieve it, Alexandra signed up to do the 2015 Ironman Melbourne - 3.8 km swim, 180 km ride, 42.195 km run.

Her story is engaging and relatable, leaving us not only inspired, but with hope in our hearts, full of wonder for the world of possibility that awaits when we find the courage to test our limits.
André Dupont (1742-1817) - A Palace and Roses
André Dupont (1742-1817), is the first rose collector we know of. From 1785 onwards, he developed a passion for this beautiful genus, striving to have a garden where he could produce his Roses and observe them, in Paris, mainly in the surroundings of the Luxembourg Palace. He was not a horticulturist, so he immersed himself in the books lent to him by the National Museum of Natural History, met botanists, erudite men of the Enlightenment, gardeners and nurserymen. He thus became a good connoisseur of the Roses of his time, planning to write a monograph. At the beginning of the 19th century, the fashion for roses began, and André Dupont made a major contribution to this development; he was ...
