Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Weight-loss research shows that the average person will add 1 to 2 pounds around their abdomen each year between the ages of 35 and 55 without changing their eating or exercise habits. Noted expert Dr. C.W. Randolph explains why: estrogen dominance, a natural shift in hormone production that begins at age thirty, which causes weight gain and sabotages the most steadfast attempts at shedding it. Even worse, estrogen places the added weight around the middle, which has a negative impact both aesthetically and medically. Once estrogen dominance has taken hold, it creates a vicious cycle: fat cells will produce even more estrogen, which then biochemically predisposes the body to add on even more pounds. Here, Dr. Randolph introduces the three-step plan he's used with success in thousands of patients. In simple language, Dr. Randolph lays out the facts about bioidentical hormones and explains what foods and supplements guard against or reverse estrogen dominance. He also shares client success stories and presents practical eating plans, recipes, and shopping guides to put the advice into practice.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. How did the universe begin and how will it end? What is matter? What is mind, and can it survive death? What are time and space, and how do they relate to ideas about God? Is the order of the universe the result of accident or design? The most profound and age-old questions of existence -- for centuries the focus of religion and philosophy -- may soon be answered through the extraordinary advances of a field of science known as the new physics. In this illuminating work, Paul Davies, author of the acclaimed Other Worlds and The Edge of Infinity, writes that the discoveries of 20th-century physics -- relativity and the quantum theory -- are now pointing the way to a new appreciation of man and his place in the universe. They could, in fact, bring within our grasp a unified description of all creation. Demanding a radical reformulation of the most fundamental aspects of reality and a way of thinking that is in closer accord with mysticism than materialism, the new physics, says Davies, offers a surer path to God than religion. Described by The Washington Post as "impressive," God and the New Physics is a fascinating look at the impact of science on what were formerly religious issues. Elegantly written, a book for both scholars and lay readers of science, it is, according to the Christian Science Monitor, a "provocative.rewarding intellectual romp.".…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In this stunning novel, C. W. Gortner brings to life Juana of Castile, the third child of Queen Isabel and King Ferdinand of Spain, who would become the last queen of Spanish blood to inherit her country's throne. Along the way, Gortner takes the reader from the somber majesty of Spain to the glittering and lethal courts of Flanders, France, and Tudor England. Born amid her parents' ruthless struggle to unify and strengthen their kingdom, Juana, at the age of sixteen, is sent to wed Philip, heir to the Habsburg Empire. Juana finds unexpected love and passion with her dashing young husband, and at first she is content with her children and her married life. But when tragedy strikes and she becomes heir to the Spanish throne, Juana finds herself plunged into a battle for power against her husband that grows to involve the major monarchs of Europe. Besieged by foes on all sides, Juana vows to secure her crown and save Spain from ruin, even if it costs her everything. Praise for The Last Queen "This moving tale of Juana la Loca (the Mad) vividly re-creates the passion, politics, and betrayals that drove a smart and spirited queen to the brink of insanity . . . or perhaps, as C. W. Gortner suggests, to the pretense of insanity-a pretense that baffled Juana' s enemies and led to triumph for her children and her country. The Last Queen is an absorbing account of one of history's most fascinating women, from her never-before-told point of view."--Donna Woolfolk Cross, author of Pope Joan "I ached for this intelligent, one-of-a-kind queen. Her struggle and passion kept me up until the early hours of the morning. A page-turner, a nail-biter, an eye-opener: I loved being possessed by The Last Queen!"--Ki Longfellow, author of The Secret Magdalene "A vibrant tapestry of love and hate . . . brings to life an extraordinary queen at an unforgettable time in history."--Sandra Worth, author of Lady of the Roses  "An exquisite evocation of a dangerous era and of a forgotten queen."--Holly Payne, author of The Virgin' s Knot  "Gripping and unforgettable . . . captures Juana of Castile's electrifying drama."--Judith Merkle Riley, author of The Water Devil.…
