Finally a book that tells the truth of how the standard American diet which has been adopted by most of the world has betrayed us and is destroying our bodies and complicating our health. The SAD offers synthetic chemicals into our diet and environment, which accumulates within the human body, thus promoting disease. A lifetime following the standard American diet and lifestyle could lead to an early death. This book offers the learning process on how to get away from this destructive system, which one can then have optimal health and freedom from allergies, cravings, food addictions, and withdrawals. The problems as well as the solutions are well explained. This is one woman's journey from sickness to recovery, which is needed by our society in this time of epidemics. http://frombirthuntilsunset.com/
How does someone become a piece of meat? Carol J. Adams answers this question in this provocative book—her most controversial since The Sexual Politics of Meat—by finding insidious, hidden meanings in the culture around us. With 200 illustrations, this courageous book establishes why Adams's slide show, upon which The Pornography of Meat is based is so popular on campuses and is reviled by the groups she takes on with insight and passion.
The Upper Paleolithic of the Central Russian Plain examines the hunter-gatherer adaptations on the Upper Paleolithic central Russian Plain. The book offers both a culture history for the area and an explanation for the changes in human adaptation. It presents what has been found at 29 major Upper Paleolithic sites occupied over a period of some 14,000 years. The book presents details of the archaeological inventories and assemblages found at the 29 sites, together with the geography and geology of the study area. It then uses environmental data to model environmental conditions and resource distribution during the various periods of human occupation, as well as to predict optimal strategies for exploiting available resources. Subsequent chapters present the relative and chronometric dating schemes. The book also elucidates the man-land relationships, ensuing subsistence strategies, settlement types present in the archaeological record, settlement systems, and sociopolitical behavior. The text will be significant to archaeologists, paleoecologists, and anthropologists interested in hunter-gatherers and late Pleistocene adaptations.
Commonly shared resources that include the oceans, atmosphere fisheries and other components of the environment are managed by consensus amongst nations. This study examines the complex issue of these shared resources from a multi-disciplinary viewpoint.

Highlights cultural processes that have an impact on the evolution of illness, death and dying in human populations, including subsistence strategies, human environmental adaptations, the effects of malnutrition, differential access to resources, and interpersonal and intercultural violence
