Year of No Sugar: A Memoir
by Eve SchaubFor fans of the New York Times bestseller I Quit Sugar or Katie Couric's controversial food industry documentary Fed Up, A Year of No Sugar is a "delightfully readable account of how [one family] survived a yearlong sugar-free diet and lived to tell the tale…A funny, intelligent, and informative memoir." —KirkusIt's dinnertime. Do you know where your sugar is coming from? Most likely everywhere. Sure, it's in ice cream and cookies, but what scared Eve O. Schaub was the secret world of sugar—hidden in bacon, crackers, salad dressing, pasta sauce, chicken broth, and baby food.With her eyes opened by the work of obesity expert Dr. Robert Lustig and others, Eve challenged her husband and two school-age daughters to join her on a quest to quit sugar for an entire year.Along the way, Eve uncovered the real costs of our sugar-heavy American diet—including diabetes, obesity, and increased incidences of health problems such as heart disease and cancer. The stories, tips, and recipes she shares throw fresh light on questionable nutritional advice we've been following for years and show that it is possible to eat at restaurants and go grocery shopping—with less and even no added sugar.Year of No Sugar is what the conversation about "kicking the sugar addiction" looks like for a real American family—a roller coaster of unexpected discoveries and challenges."As an outspoken advocate for healthy eating, I found Schaub's book to shine a much-needed spotlight on an aspect of American culture that is making us sick, fat, and unhappy, and it does so with wit and warmth."—Suvir Sara, author of Indian Home Cooking"Delicious and compelling, her book is just about the best sugar substitute I've ever encountered."—Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ron Powers

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Industry 4.0
by G. S. Pradeep Ghantasala Mudassir Khan M. Thirunavukkarasan S. A. Sahaaya Arul Mary Sathiyaraj. RThis book is essential for any leader seeking to understand how to leverage intelligent automation and predictive maintenance to drive innovation, enhance productivity, and minimize downtime in their manufacturing processes. Intelligent automation is widely considered to have the greatest potential for Industry 4.0 innovations for corporations. Industrial machinery is increasingly being upgraded to intelligent machines that can perceive, act, evolve, and interact in an industrial environment. The innovative technologies featured in this machinery include the Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, and artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence enables computer systems to learn from experience, adapt to new input data, and perform intelligent tasks. The significance of AI is not found in its computational models, but in how humans can use them. Consistently observing equipment to keep it from malfunctioning is the procedure of predictive maintenance. Predictive maintenance includes a periodic maintenance schedule and anticipates equipment failure rather than responding to equipment problems. Currently, the industry is struggling to adopt a viable and trustworthy predictive maintenance plan for machinery. The goal of predictive maintenance is to reduce the amount of unanticipated downtime that a machine experiences due to a failure in a highly automated manufacturing line. In recent years, manufacturing across the globe has increasingly embraced the Industry 4.0 concept. Greater solutions than those offered by conventional maintenance are promised by machine learning, revealing precisely how AI and machine learning-based models are growing more prevalent in numerous industries for intelligent performance and greater productivity. This book emphasizes technological developments that could have great influence on an industrial revolution and introduces the fundamental technologies responsible for directing the development of innovative firms. Decision-making requires a vast intake of data and customization in the manufacturing process, which managers and machines both deal with on a regular basis. One of the biggest issues in this field is the capacity to foresee when maintenance of assets is necessary. Leaders in the sector will have to make careful decisions about how, when, and where to employ these technologies. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Industry 4.0offers contemporary technological advancements in AI and machine learning from an Industry 4.0 perspective, looking at their prospects, obstacles, and potential applications.

Elephant Welfare in Global Tourism
At the centre of the elephant tourism industry lie two profound challenges: the delicate balance between income and compassion, and the severe threats to the survival of all remaining elephant species. Trained elephants exchange hands for staggering sums, reaching up to $100,000 each, yet the colossal appetites of the herds, with each elephant devouring over 100 kilograms of sustenance daily, pose formidable economic challenges for camp owners. An elephant camp's revenue is dependent on tourism, with a complex web of specialist businesses, local and international, large and small, contracted to recruit and enable visitors. This results in competition focused mainly on price and profitability considerations. The inadequacies of these business networks and of the administrative controls within which they operate were demonstrated during the complete shutdown of elephant tourism venues in early 2020 due to COVID-19. This authoritative text analyses elephants' vulnerabilities, providing an inspiring call to action for a more compassionate coexistence between elephants and the stakeholders responsible for their individual and herd welfare and survival. Elephant Welfare in Global Tourism is intended for managers, professionals and administrators of elephant camps, refuges and rescue centres, and for NGOs providing advice and support. Academic researchers on wildlife may find inspiration for suitable topics, and examples of current methodologies.

Hot Art, Cold War – Southern and Eastern European Writing on American Art 1945-1990
by Iain Boyd Whyte Claudia HopkinsHot Art, Cold War – Southern and Eastern European Writing on American Art 1945-1990 is one of two text anthologies that trace the reception of American art in Europe during the Cold War era through primary sources.Translated into English for the first time from sixteen languages and introduced by scholarly essays, the texts in this volume offer a representative selection of the diverse responses to American art in Portugal, Italy, Spain, Greece, Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, Soviet Union (including the Baltic States), Czechoslovakia, Poland, Hungary, and East Germany (GDR). There was no single European discourse, as attitudes to American art were determined by a wide range of ideological, political, social, cultural and artistic positions that varied considerably across the European nations.This volume and its companion, Hot Art, Cold War – Northern and Western European Writing on American Art 1945-1990, offer the reader a unique opportunity to compare how European art writers introduced and explained contemporary American art to their many and varied audiences.Whilst many are fluent in one or two foreign languages, few are able to read all twenty-five languages represented in the two volumes. These ground-breaking publications significantly enrich the fields of American art studies and European art criticism.
