One of my friends was telling me about how her ancestors lived long and healthy productive lives, for millenniums, surviving on just 10 fistfuls – she cupped her hands together and made a swallowing motion, – per meal. That made up a healthy mouthful. According to her, this was practiced even today, even in this day of plenty, because according to them 10 fistfuls of food was enough to make a satisfying meal for you. According to her, throughout the day, one did not go beyond 32 mouthfuls/fistfuls. Why 32? I queried. Why not 31 or 33 or much much more than that? Well, she said, 10 fistfuls per meal, 3 meals per day and 2 extra for when you are really hungry!

Table of Contents Introduction Some Points about Dieting “Clean Eating” The 75:25% Diet Binge Eating Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction When a friend of mine asked me why I was writing this book, when she knew very well that I did not advocate dieting – as in starving yourself – I told her that there are a number of people out there, who are so used to dieting in order to lose weight or to look for any other way and means, in which they can lose weight, and that is why, if they really have to do this, they had better do it sensibly, systematically and get permanent results. You are going to find some examples in this book, taken from classic stories, and because I am more familiar with UK and American classics, they are going to tell you about some exercise routines and lifestyles of times gone by, more than hundred years ago. We may find it amusing, but there was a time when every youngster was encouraged by his mother and father to take up physical training as an exercise routine in order to keep healthy throughout his life. Unfortunately that is not being done nowadays because parents themselves could not be bothered to keep fit in exercise or workouts. Also, at that time, the lifestyle, the diet was totally different, and it is not being followed today. Many of the healthy foodstuffs which we use to eat 150 years ago have been removed from our diet list today, because some doctors somewhere said that it is unhealthy for you to eat this particular diet and you believed him. Instead, you have substituted unhealthy supplements, manufactured in chemical labs and which are being marketed by these quack doctor doors all over the world because according to them, these are going to keep you healthy. And you believe them because you have been brainwashed since childhood, into believing that whatever you read on the Internet or your doctors tell you is exactly right. So, if you are a person who has gone on to a diet, at least once in his/her life, think of it. So what did you go through? Eating boring and bland foods and the problem was that you would have to eat these boring and bland foods, throughout your life, after you had achieved your goal of losing a given amount of weight. That meant that you would never be allowed to eat the healthy foods, which made life worth living. It was possible that these healthy foods never came into your diet list, since childhood, because possibly your parents had decided that they were not good for you because somebody had told them that it was not good for them. And I think it is very surprising, socially and psychologically, that whenever I went to lands of plenty where there was plenty of food available, there were also people, who definitely did not eat that food because they were going through the mode of self starvation, all in the name of dieting.

The Food We Eat… Necessary essential foods in Regular Diet Butter and yogurt Whole eggs Wheat germ And Wheatgrass Potatoes Going Bananas Red gold – saffron Harnessing The Power Of The Universe Silence Is Golden; The Sound Of Silence Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction I was talking to a friend of mine about ancient rituals, which have been practiced for ages , for generations and which have now been integrated into a normal part of their daily routine and lifestyles. She asked me if I had found any similarity in the rituals which had been practiced, in different places all over the world or possibly any differences. When I began to analyze and think of all the rituals and the practices which one did, early in the morning in many places all over the world, I was surprised to see a large number of similarities which had been passed down from generation to generation. They were not region specific. They were also not religion specific. However they had a number of things in common, and that is why this book was going to tell you all about these practices which are followed all over the world. Along with this you may find some controversial statements and practices given in this book, upon the reading of which you are going to say, ‘no, I never heard of this, because on the internet something else is written about drinking 8 glasses of water per day and that is what the doctor suggested and all that jazz. I really cannot believe that you are telling me to reduce my water intake… You crazy or something? The craziness? That ain’t necessarily so. There is a particular scientific reason behind every single ritual, which was done in ancient times.

Every day we interact with machine learning systems offering individualized predictions for our entertainment, social connections, purchases, or health. These involve several modalities of data, from sequences of clicks to text, images, and social interactions. This book introduces common principles and methods that underpin the design of personalized predictive models for a variety of settings and modalities. The book begins by revising 'traditional' machine learning models, focusing on adapting them to settings involving user data, then presents techniques based on advanced principles such as matrix factorization, deep learning, and generative modeling, and concludes with a detailed study of the consequences and risks of deploying personalized predictive systems. A series of case studies in domains ranging from e-commerce to health plus hands-on projects and code examples will give readers understanding and experience with large-scale real-world datasets and the ability to design models and systems for a wide range of applications.

A public health approach to understanding and eliminating excessive police violence. Excessive police violence and its disproportionate targeting of minority communities has existed in the United States since police forces first formed in the colonial period. A personal tragedy for its victims, for the people who love them, and for their broader communities, excessive police violence is also a profound violation of human and civil rights. Most public discourse about excessive police violence focuses, understandably, on the horrors of civilian deaths. In From Enforcers to Guardians, Hannah L. F. Cooper and Mindy Thompson Fullilove approach the issue from a radically different angle: as a public health problem. By using a public health framing, this book challenges readers to recognize that the suffering created by excessive police violence extends far outside of death to include sexual, psychological, neglectful, and nonfatal physical violence as well. Arguing that excessive police violence has been deliberately used to marginalize working-class and minority communities, Cooper and Fullilove describe what we know about the history, distribution, and health impacts of police violence, from slave patrols in colonial times to war on drugs policing in the present-day United States. Finally, the book surveys efforts, including Barack Obama's 2015 creation of the Task Force on 21st Century Policing, to eliminate police violence, and proposes a multisystem, multilevel strategy to end marginality and police violence and to achieve guardian policing. Aimed at anyone seeking to understand the causes and distributions of excessive police violence—and to develop interventions to end it—From Enforcers to Guardians frames excessive police violence so that it can be understood, researched, and taught about through a public health lens.

In an era where a great variety of cuisines are just a restaurant away, it has become difficult to choose what to eat. Food products labelled 'healthy' one day are abruptly dismissed as 'lethal' the very next, while 'celebrity diets' are trashed by nutritionists. So what is the correct diet for your body? The answer lies within. In the Yogic tradition, food is alive, with a prana of its own. When consumed, the quality of the food influences the qualities of your body and mind. In A Taste of Well-Being, you will find recipes that have been perfected in the Isha Yoga Centre kitchen. Ranging from simple juices and salads to complete meals of grains, cereals and curries, the recipes are peppered with profound insights from Sadhguru on the process of eating and digestion. A book that will help you discover the potential that lies within you and the joy you can derive from the simple act of eating.

For more than three decades, preeminent scholars in comparative literature and postcolonial studies have called for a return to philology as the indispensable basis of critical method in the humanities. Against such calls, this book argues that the privilege philology has always enjoyed within the modern humanities silently reinforces a colonial hierarchy. In fact, each of philology's foundational innovations originally served British rule in India. Tracing an unacknowledged history that extends from British Orientalist Sir William Jones to Palestinian American intellectual Edward Said and beyond, Archaeology of Babel excavates the epistemic transformation that was engendered on a global scale by the colonial reconstruction of native languages, literatures, and law. In the process, it reveals the extent to which even postcolonial studies and European philosophy—not to mention discourses as disparate as Islamic fundamentalism, Hindu nationalism, and global environmentalism—are the progeny of colonial rule. Going further, it unearths the alternate concepts of language and literature that were lost along the way and issues its own call for humanists to reckon with the politics of the philological practices to which they now return.
