Some health professionals are calling it a hidden epidemic. One of the main instigators of candida overgrowth is sugar, of which the average American consumes more than seventy pounds per year. In Living CandidaFree, Ricki Heller (with functional nutritionist Andrea Nakayama) offers a complete exploration of this condition and an expansive approach for anyone wishing to follow an anticandida diet. A comprehensive guidebook for living a life free of refined sugar, it includes a threestage program; tips on how to transition to eating the anti
candida way with ease; information on herbal supplements and treatments; a full list of substitutions; and delicious, satisfying recipes that anyone can prepare. Collins Canada 9781443435673 On Sale Date: 1/27/15 $22.99 Can. Trade Paperback 256 pages Carton Qty: 45 Health & Fitness / Diets

Damage Done A Mountie's Memoir Deanna Lennox Summary
An unflinching portrayal how one idealistic young RCMP officer battled her way through jobinduced trauma, anger and disillusionment by turning to horses and how her path to healing helped her reach out to other first responders The first responders and other front line service providers who serve our country and our communities with courage and dedication have been suffering in silence. Studies and statistics show that they experience catastrophic rates of divorce, alcoholism and depression, but they often are unable or unwilling to tell their stories or find the resources they need to help themselves. In 2014, the silence could be held no longer when over the course of three months, 15 first responders across the country committed suicide.

The Hunger Of The Wolf Stephen Marche Summary
Hunters found his body naked in the snow. So begins this breakout book from Stephen Marche, whose last work of fiction was described by the New York Times Book Review as "maybe the most exciting mashup of literary genres since David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas." The body in the snow is that of Ben Wylie, the heir to America's secondwealthiest business dynasty, and it is found in a remote patch of northern Canada. Far away, in postcrash New York, Jamie Cabot, the son of the Wylie family's housekeepers, must figure out how and why Ben died. He knows the answer lies in the tortured history of the Wylie family, who over three generations built up their massive holdings into several billion dollars' worth of real estate, oil, and information systems despite a terrible family secret they must keep from the world. The threads of the Wylie men's destinies, both financial and supernatural, lead twistingly but inevitably to the naked body in the snow and a final, chilling revelation. HarperCollins Publishers Ltd

Got Milked Alissa Hamilton Summary
In Got Milked, dairy's answer to Wheat Belly and Grain Brain, Alissa Hamilton breaks down the science to illustrate how the milk kick is making us sickand what we can do about it. In 1993, the "Got Milk?" campaign launched in California to help reverse declining milk sales across the U.S. With a 90 per cent recognition rate, it is considered one of the most successful advertising campaigns of all time. Ever since, we've come to believe that cow's milk is an essential part of our (and our children's) diets, and that milk does not have an equal when it comes to the calcium, protein and myriad other nutrients and vitamins it provides. And yet the ability to digest milk as an adult is not normal; roughly 60 per cent of adults are lactose intolerant, and that figure is even higher within certain groups, such as Asian Americans and African Americans. So why do we keep buying and drinking milk, and is it really necessary? Collins Canada 9781443421270 On Sale Date: 3/3/15 $22.99 Can.

Headscarves And Hymens Mona Eltahawy Summary
Mona Eltahawy is an Egyptian woman who wrote an article for Foreign Policy entitled "Why Do They Hate Us?"; "they" being Muslim men, "us" being women. The piece sparked controversy, of course, making it clear that misogyny in the Arab world is something that engages and enrages the public.

A Reunion Of Ghosts Judith Claire Mitchell Summary
How do three sisters write a single suicide note? This is the riddle the Alter sistersLady, Vee and Delphpose at the outset of this darkly funny novel as they finalize their plans to collectively end their lives on New Year's Eve, 1999. Their reasons are not theirs alone, and they prove that the sins of the father are indeed visited upon the children, even to the third and fourth generations. The Jewish Alter family has been haunted by suicide ever since the sisters' greatgrandfather, the Nobel Prizewinning chemist Lenz Alter, developed the first poison gas used in warfare and also the lethal agent used in the gas chambers of the Third Reich. Lenz and his wife, Iris, their son Richard and his children, Rose, Violet and Dahlie, all took their own lives. Now Dahlie's children are the only ones remaining. Lady, Vee and Delph love one another fiercely and protect one another from the shadows of the past through a shared sense of dark, deeply brilliant humour. As they gather in the Uppe...

Beyond The Pale Emily Urquhart Summary
The story begins on St. Stephen's Day, 2010, in St. John's, Newfoundland, when the author gives birth to a baby girl named Sadie Jane who has a shock of snowwhite hair. News of the child's icy locks travels across the hospital, and physicians and nurses from all wards visit the unusually beautiful newborn as she lies sleeping in her plastic bassinet. The maternityfloor janitor, however, feels something is amiss. Her eyes wide, incredulous and panicky, Emily asks, "Is she an albino?" The idea is immediately dismissed, but after three months of medical testing, Sadie is diagnosed with albinism, a rare genetic condition where pigment fails to form in the skin, hair and eyes. She is visually impaired and faces a lifetime indoors. She will always have the otherworldly appearance that drew the awestruck hospital staff to her side. A journalist and folklore scholar accustomed to processing the world through other people's stories, Emily is drawn to understanding her child's difference by re...

All Involved Ryan Gattis Summary
In 1991, a black man named Rodney King was severely beaten by multiple white police officers after a highspeed car chase that ended in a suburb of Los Angeles, an event that might have escaped the eyes of the American public had a witness not videotaped it from his balcony. The officers were taken to court, but eventually acquitted, and thus spawned the 1992 Los Angeles Riots: six days of looting, arson, assault, and murder that spread from South Central LA into the Los Angeles metropolitan area, and only stopped after soldiers from the National Guard were called in as backup for the overwhelmed and vilified LAPD. But on the streets of the South Central neighbourhood of Lynwood, the story played out differently than on the national news. In All Involved, Ryan Gattis weaves a narrative from the perspectives of people whose stories of the riots were never told
members of the gang underworld. Inspired by unprecedented access to the inner workings of these organizations, Gattis channels t... HarperCollins 9781443440769 On Sale Date: 4/7/15 $33.99 Can. Hardcover 384 pages Carton Qty: 33 Fiction FIC000000 Author Bio

The Skeleton Cupboard Tanya Byron Summary
In my session with Imogen, the words were still not coming. I had to move past my own frustration and relax. But it is very hard to relax when you are looking into the eyes of a mute little girl who wants to be dead. You don't want to relax; you want to pull her into your arms, hold her and then shake her until she tells you why. You long to say, "Why do you want to die? You're twelve years old." Gripping, unforgettable and deeply affecting, The Skeleton Cupboard recounts the patient stories that most influenced Dr. Tanya Byron, covering years of training that forced her to confront the harsh realities of the lives of her patients and the demons of her own family history. Among others, we meet Ray, a violent sociopath desperate to be treated with tenderness and compassion; Mollie, a talented teenager intent on starving herself; and Imogen, a twelveyearold so haunted by a secret that she's intent on killing herself.

Losing the Signal The Spectacular Rise and Fall of BlackBerry Jacquie McNish Summary
It was a classic modern business story: two Canadian entrepreneurs build an iconic brand that would forever change the way we communicate. From its humble beginnings in an office above a bagel store in Waterloo, Ontario, BlackBerry outsmarted the global giants with an addictive smartphone that generated billions of dollars. Its devices were so ubiquitous that even President Barack Obama favoured them above all others. But just as it was emerging as the dominant global player, BlackBerry took a dramatic turn. The Startup That Never Grew Up is the riveting, neverbeforetold story of one of the most spectacular technological upsets of the 21st century. Unlike Enron, which was undone by its executives' illegal activities, or Lehman Brothers, which collapsed as part of a larger global banking crisis, BlackBerry's rise and fall is a modernday tale of the unrelenting speed of success and failure. It is a thrilling account of how two mismatched CEOs outsmarted morepowerful competitors with ... HarperCollins Publishers Ltd

An Upright Man John Colapinto Summary
A masterful satire for our time, this is a novel about celebrity envy (and also about desire). The novel's antagonist, a downonhis luck young man, sets out to destroy a successful older writer's career by devising and unleashing a diabolical scheme to ruin his reputation. Briefly, this is accomplished by enlisting an eighteenyearold who poses as the older writer's lost daughter, but with a mission to seduce him and then report him to the authorities. The scheme turns on switching DNA samples so that the teenager's claim to be the writer's daughter is believed. What ensues is a descent into psychological nightmare for the writer, who actually believes he has made love to his daughter. As readers, we know that she is not his daughter, and we are riveted by this cruel trick, this act of sheer destruction of another human being. We are in on the scam as we witness an upright man brought low unfairly by the evil of envy. In many ways, this is a social satire, a risktaking and very cour... Author Bio

Missing Microbes How The Overuse Of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues Martin Blaser Summary
A critical call to arms about the harmful effects of some of our most revered modern medical practices. Welcome to the wilds of the microbiome, where for hundreds of thousands of years bacterial and human cells have coexisted in a peaceful symbiosis that is responsible for the equilibrium and health of our bodies. But now this invisible Eden is under assault. Our overreliance on medical advances such as antibiotics and Cesarean sections is threatening the extinction of these irreplaceable microbes and leading to severe health problems. In Missing Microbes, Dr. Martin Blaser goes back to the discovery of antibiotics, which ushered in a golden age of medicine, and traces how our subsequent overuse of these supposed wonder drugs has left its mark on our systems and contributed to the rise of what Blaser calls our modern plagues: obesity, asthma, allergies, diabetes and certain forms of cancer.

The Angel Effect John Geiger Summary
John Geiger's last book, The Third Man Factor: Surviving the Impossible, explored an extraordinary idea: that people under enormous stress, sometimes at the edge of death, experience a sense of an incorporeal being beside them, who encourages them to survive. From the response of hundreds of readers around the world, it became clear to Geiger that explorers and adventurers were not the sole recipients of such interventions. The Angel Effect is a phenomenon encountered across the world and shared by men and women, the religious and the nonreligious, throughout history. When faced with physical assaults; after terrible car accidents or airplane crashes; during events like shark attacks or bank heists; or in the midst of long illnesses or persistent, gnawing loneliness, average people often encounter a benevolent being who can offer advice and provide solaceeven save their lives.

The Kraus Project Jonathan Franzen Summary
Strikingly original in form, The Kraus Project is a feast of thought, passion and literature. A hundred years ago, the writings of Viennese satirist Karl Kraus were among the most penetrating and prophetic in Europea relentless criticism of the popular media's manipulation of reality, the dehumanizing machinery of technology and consumerism, and the jingoistic rhetoric of a fading empire. But even though Kraus's followers included Franz Kafka and Walter Benjamin, he remained something of a lonely prophet, and few people today are familiar with his work. Thankfully, Jonathan Franzen is. In The Kraus Project, Franzen not only presents his definitive new translations of Kraus but annotates them spectacularly, with supplementary notes from the Kraus scholar Paul Reitter and the Austrian/German writer Daniel Kehlmann. Kraus was a notoriously cantankerous and difficult author, and in Franzen he has found his match: a novelist unafraid to strongly voice unpopular opinions, and a critic capab...

Few of them were really enjoying "leisure" time. They weren't complaining; they chose to have children and to work, and they made the best of it. But what about that term women's magazines are so fond of: "me time"? Was there anything working mothers could do to make their lives feel less like a treadmill gone haywire? Anything they could change? Schulte interviewed working mothers and examined how not just individual pressures but biological, societal, economic and cultural ones were splintering their days into slivered messes. She explored everything from the wiring of the female brain to malefemale income distribution and the current state of gender equality in the workplace and ...

Enlightenment 2.0 Joseph Heath Summary
The coauthor of the internationally bestselling The Rebel Sell brings us "slow politics": promoting slow thought, slow deliberation and slow debate. Over the last twenty years, the political systems of the western world have become increasingly dividednot between right and left but between crazy and noncrazy. What's more, the crazies seem to be gaining the upper hand. Rational thought cannot prevail in the current social and media environment, where elections are won by appealing to voters' hearts rather than their minds. The rapidfire pace of modern politics, the hypnotic repetition of daily news items and even the multitude of visual sources of information all make it difficult for the voice of reason to be heard.

The Road Is How Three Days A Foot Through Nature, Eros, And Soul Trevor Herriot Summary
Prairie naturalist Trevor Herriot decides the road is how. Recovering from a misstep that could have been his last, he decides to go for a walk to sort through questions that rushed in upon the enforced stillness of waiting for his body to heal. The Road is How reenchants our modern map of desire, spirit and nature by taking us on a threeday walk down an ordinary prairie road. Detouring along rail beds, over hills and into fields, sitting next to sloughs, waiting for a sparrow to sing to the dusk a second time, we enter a territory where imagination and experience carry us beyond the history of our transgressions to the soul's contact with a broken land. By turns irreverent and meditative, lyrical and analytical, this moving account bears the characteristic style of Herriot's bestseller River in a Dry Land, but this time the focus of his critique is not on the culture but on the individual.

In The Slender Margin Eve Joseph Summary
Part memoir, part meditation, this book is an exploration of death from an "insider's" point of view. Using the threads of her brother's early death and her twenty years of work in hospice care, Eve Joseph utilizes history, religion, philosophy, literature, personal anecdote, mythology, poetry and pop culture to discern the unknowable and illuminate her travels through the land of the dying. This is neither an academic text nor a self
help manual; rather, it is a foray into the land of death and dying as seen through the lens of art and the imagination. Rather than relying solely on narrative, In the Slender Margin gains momentum from a buildup of thematic resonances. Joseph writes toward thinking about death and in the process finds the brother she lost as a young girl. She wrote the book as a way to understand what she had seen: the mysterious and the horrific.

One night, a vicious blow to the head in an altercation profoundly and permanently changed the way his brain worked. Jason would eventually learn that his injury had made him an acquired savant and a synesthetesomeone whose blended sense perception causes such strange effects as the ability to taste shapes, to hear colours and to see numbers as geometric objects. Suddenly Jason saw the world in a completely different way. As the first documented case of acquired savant syndrome with his particular ty...
