Posture Alignment
"Clear, easy-to-read presentation of the importance of posture or body alignment with respect to appearance, maintaining physical functioning, and preventing muscle and joint pain and disability particularly as one grows older.

Functional Fitness
This timely book written by a physician is directed primarily at a population increasingly beset by muscle and joint pain, disability, and loss of function at earlier and earlier ages. The book?s premise is that there are things only we can do to help prevent much of the muscle and joint pain, disability, and loss of function commonly associated with aging. We are often a little too quick to go to the medicine cabinet, to seek orthopedic surgery, or simply to blame our loss of function on ?aging?. As an aside, much of looking old (no matter what age you pick for that) is in great part related to our posture and to how we move?or don?t move. Specifically, the four things we need to do to prevent or at least forestall many of the changes with aging are to preserve and maintain our muscular strength, our flexibility, our posture, and to stay active. The book attempts to change the way we think about this important subject. It is written in a fun, easy-to-read style for the layperson with many illustrations, and includes numerous short exercise menus for various problems and over fifty ?function? exercises.

The Hero's Way
'Elegantly written, full of wit and charm, this is travel writing at its very best' Orlando Figes In the summer of 1849, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Italy's legendary revolutionary hero, fled Rome and led 4,000 of his men hundreds of miles through Umbria and Tuscany, then across the Apennines, Italy's mountainous spine, toward the refuge of the Venetian Republic. After thirty-two exhausting days of skirmishes and adventures, only 250 survivors reached the Adriatic coast. This hair-raising journey is brought vividly to life by bestselling author Tim Parks, who in the blazing summer of 2019, followed in Garibaldi's footsteps. A fascinating portrait of Italy past and present, The Hero's Way is a celebration of determination, creativity and desperate courage.
