Hijos gordos
by Martha Alicia ChávezHijos gordos expone la problemática infantil en la alimentación y la obesidad (que en este país es el número uno) y, en su estilo, retoma casos que analiza a lo largo del libro. El libro que quitará la venda a las familias que no aceptan el problema de la obesidad infantil. ¿Por qué un libro sobre hijos gordos? Las estadísticas nos dan la respuesta: al margen de que México ocupe el primer lugar en obesidad infantil, en realidad el sobrepeso es ya una enfermedad globalizada. En la vida real se les llama "gordas" y no "obesas" a las personas con sobrepeso, y este término carga un sentido emocional particular, que la autora examinará a lo largo de este libro con absoluto respeto. A través de las historias de cuatro personas que fueron hijos gordos y que con generosidad compartieron sus experiencias, la autora de Tu hijo, tu espejo identifica la situación de cada sujeto y la estudia a fondo con su particular estilo, para ofreceruna atinada perspectiva sobre sus causas y sus posibles soluciones, y dejar claro que la problemática entraña dificultades sociales, familiares y personales. Como excelente complemento a su presentación, en el anexo "Hijos gordos. Un enfoque nutricional" la experimentada nutrióloga Margarita Chávez Martínez analiza cómo combatir la obesidad infantil cumpliendo a la vez con los requerimientos nutricionales indispensables para el ser humano.

The Hills of Chianti
by Piero Antinori Natalie DanfordThe head of Italy's "first family" of winemaking reflects on the Antinoris' six-hundred-year legacy and a life of good food and drink in the hills of Tuscany. If you know wine, you know the name Antinori. Since 1385, this noble Florentine family has produced some of Italy's finest wines. The Hills of Chianti tells the story of the Antinoris and the Tuscany they call home, through seven iconic bottles that define their legacy. From the Tignanello that ushered in the era of Super Tuscans to limited-edition vintages, these wines embody a way of life and will excite oenophile readers and lovers of Italy alike. In this family memoir Piero Antinori reveals the passion, tradition, and love of craft that have driven twenty-seven generations of vintners: from the first ancestor who signed up to the winemakers guild in the fourteenth century to Antinori's own three daughters, poised to carry this most celebrated family of artisans into the future. But The Hills of Chianti is about much more than wine. At its heart the Antinori story is about "Tuscan-ness": a connection to the land, an appreciation for good food and drink, and the quintessentially Italian love of hospitality that make this one of the world's most inspiring and memorable destinations.

Hippie Food: How Back-to-the-Landers, Longhairs, and Revolutionaries Changed the Way We Eat
by Jonathan KauffmanAn enlightening narrative history—an entertaining fusion of Tom Wolfe and Michael Pollan—that traces the colorful origins of once unconventional foods and the diverse fringe movements, charismatic gurus, and counterculture elements that brought them to the mainstream and created a distinctly American cuisine.Food writer Jonathan Kauffman journeys back more than half a century—to the 1960s and 1970s—to tell the story of how a coterie of unusual men and women embraced an alternative lifestyle that would ultimately change how modern Americans eat. Impeccably researched, Hippie Food chronicles how the longhairs, revolutionaries, and back-to-the-landers rejected the square establishment of President Richard Nixon’s America and turned to a more idealistic and wholesome communal way of life and food.From the mystical rock-and-roll cult known as the Source Family and its legendary vegetarian restaurant in Hollywood to the Diggers’ brown bread in the Summer of Love to the rise of the co-op and the origins of the organic food craze, Kauffman reveals how today’s quotidian whole-foods staples—including sprouts, tofu, yogurt, brown rice, and whole-grain bread—were introduced and eventually became part of our diets. From coast to coast, through Oregon, Texas, Tennessee, Minnesota, Michigan, Massachusetts, and Vermont, Kauffman tracks hippie food’s journey from niche oddity to a cuisine that hit every corner of this country.A slick mix of gonzo playfulness, evocative detail, skillful pacing, and elegant writing, Hippie Food is a lively, engaging, and informative read that deepens our understanding of our culture and our lives today.

Hiromi's Hands
by Lynne BaraschAsian/Pacific American Award for Literature - Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA)The true story of Hiromi Suzuki, a Japanese American girl who defied tradition to train at her family's restaurant, and who became one of the first female sushi chefs in New York.Growing up in New York City, Hiromi Suzuki missed spending time with her father, a sushi chef who worked long hours in the family's Japanese restaurant. So one day when she was eight years old, Hiromi begged her father to take her to the Fulton Fish Market, where he bought fresh fish. Hiromi was fascinated by what she saw and learned; by the time she was thirteen, she was ready to take the next step. She asked her father to teach her to make sushi. Little did Hiromi realize that her request would lead her to the forefront of a minor culinary revolution, as women claimed their place in the once all-male world of sushi chefs. Lynne Barasch was inspired to write this story by her daughter, who has been friends with Hiromi Suzuki since they both were in kindergarten. Hiromi's Hands is the true story of a young girl's determination to follow her dream, and a tribute to the loving family who supported her. Readers will cheer for Hiromi's success, and maybe decide to taste some sushi, too!

Histoire du végétarisme et du véganisme: Court, concis et facile à digérer...
by Daniel HagenBrève histoire du végétarisme et du véganisme. L'élevage commercial et industrialisé est l'une des principales causes du changement climatique. Notre rapport à la consommation de viande est devenu complètement incontrôlable. La viande en tant qu'aliment est devenue un produit de dumping dans notre soi-disant Premier Monde. La production moderne de viande est au respect de la nourriture et des êtres vivants ce que l’insulte est à un salut. Heureusement, une réflexion est en train de naître, lentement mais sûrement. De plus en plus de gens se nourrissent de plantes, de fruits, de noix, de légumineuses et de nombreux autres délices que nous offre la flore de notre terre. Le régime végan ou végétalien (ou au moins la réduction drastique de sa consommation de viande et de poisson) est plus à la mode que jamais ... et en passe de devenir la norme. Ce sont surtout les jeunes générations d'aujourd'hui qui prennent lentement conscience qu'un régime à base de plantes est la méthode la plus simple, la plus saine, la plus logique et la plus efficace ainsi que le moyen le plus rapide de faire quelque chose pour protéger l'environnement. Pour le bien-être animal. Pour sa propre santé. Pour une répartition équitable de la nourriture dans le monde. Mais quiconque pense que le végétarisme et le véganisme font partie des tendances nutritionnelles modernes se trompe ...
Historia de la gastronomía
by Néstor LujánBellísimo reflejo de una pasión desbordante por la comida, esta obra resulta en el recorrido definitivo por la historia de la gastronomía. Lúcida síntesis del desarrollo de nuestras civilizaciones, Historia de la gastronomía es la crónica del arte de comer en Occidente, de la mano del que fue un escritor gastronómico de referencia. Más de dos décadas tras la muerte de Néstor Luján, esta reedición se propone reavivar su pasión e infinita curiosidad por la gastronomía. Cada capítulo sienta al lector en las mesas más importantes de la historia, desde los suntuosos banquetes griegos hasta los refinados restaurantes parisinos, pasando por los festines de Constantino en los bellos jardines bizantinos, sin olvidar la austeridad de los comedores de la clase media en depresión. Un clásico que era necesario recuperar, y que no solo habla de la historia de la gastronomía; habla de la historia de la humanidad. Sobre Luján se ha dicho...«Cada artículo de Luján era un baño de sensualidad. [...] Luján es arrebatado y sanguíneo, se enciende por nada: cuando describe el cocido de tres vuelcos (caldo, verduras y carnes), te deja anonadado por la sapiencia y la capacidad comparativa de cocidos y sopas de todo el mundo. [...] Los libros de gastronomía de Néstor Luján son parte de la historia del país.»Julià Guillamon, La Vanguardia «Cosmopolita, de vasta cultura, gran conversador, amigo extraordinario de sus amigos, Néstor Luján encarna la figura perfecta del humanista.»El País «La gastronomía que difundía Luján era, sobre todo, viajera: con él se descubrían los caldos fríos de Rusia, la sopa de tortuga inglesa, el minestrone al pesto, el hochepot a la gantoise y la tempura [...], entre otras delicias que ya no sirven en los restaurantes.»Javier Blánquez, El Mundo «Luján puso la primera piedra de la crítica gastronómica en 1969 cuando Juan Perucho le publica en Táber Las recetas de Pickwick.»Sergi Doria, ABC

Historic Hotels and Motels of the Outer Banks (Images of America)
by Elizabeth Ownley CooperIn the mid-1800s, wealthy farmers and businessmen began bringing their families to North Carolina's Outer Banks to escape the blistering inland summer heat. Soon after, the region's first hotel was built with accommodations for 200 guests. By the mid-1900s, hotels such as the Carolinian, the Nags Header, and the Arlington as well as smaller motels and cottage courts like Journey's End, the Sea Foam, and the Cavalier dotted the coastline. Most motels were independent, family-run operations. Many guests returned yearly, reuniting with the motel owners and other visitors. However, by the end of the 20th century, many of these mom-and-pop establishments had become a distant memory, lost to wrecking balls and replaced by large beach houses. This book recalls these hotels and motels and their impact on the Outer Banks and its visitors.
