Every expectant mother, be it her first or her fifth child, will want to read this book. It is an invaluable guide - in innumerable ways unlike any other book - which covers the subject of motherhood (even "before conception") and child care through the pre-school age. In this book a woman will find advice on how to prevent and overcome "morning sickness." leg cramps, and fatigue; what to do about weight control, and many other complications of pregnancy. Equally useful information will be found in the chapters devoted to raising a healthy baby. With new emphasis by doctors on the advantages of breast-feeding, the methods outlined will be extremely helpful to mothers who wish to nurse their babies. Other advice on feeding infants - which includes formula making made easy, prevention of spitting up, skin rashes, eating problems, and similar difficulties faced by the new mother - will save her much time and nervous strain. The author is pictured on the front of the jacket with her two children. Mothers can achieve health for themselves, actually - feel better during and after pregnancy than they have ever felt before and insure health and beauty for their children by following the simple diet rules outlined in Let's Have Healthy Children. As a nutritionist of wide experience, including many years of working with obstetricians and pediatricians diet problems, Adelle Davis presents strong evidence with case histories and well-documented medical references for her advice concerning sound nutrition. She explains in an interesting narrative the reasons behind today's vitamin and health food consciousness. Easy-to-follow charts, menus and formula recipes make it possible for any woman to become her own expert dietitian. A mother equipped with Let's Have Healthy Children and its companion cookbook Let's Cook It Right will have the satisfaction of seeing her whole family enjoy the good health which proper diet can bring.

Just as the Canada's rich past resists any singular narrative, there is no such thing as a singular Canadian food tradition. This new book explores Canada's diverse food cultures and the varied relationships that Canadians have had historically with food practices in the context of community, region, nation and beyond. Based on findings from menus, cookbooks, government documents, advertisements, media sources, oral histories, memoirs, and archival collections, Edible Histories offers a veritable feast of original research on Canada's food history and its relationship to culture and politics. This exciting collection explores a wide variety of topics, including urban restaurant culture, ethnic cuisines, and the controversial history of margarine in Canada. It also covers a broad time-span, from early contact between European settlers and First Nations through the end of the twentieth century. Edible Histories intertwines information of Canada's 'foodways' – the practices and traditions associated with food and food preparation – and stories of immigration, politics, gender, economics, science, medicine and religion. Sophisticated, culturally sensitive, and accessible, Edible Histories will appeal to students, historians, and foodies alike.

“A fascinating tale of poisons and poisonous deeds which both educates and entertains.” --Kathy Reichs A brilliant blend of science and crime, A TASTE FOR POISON reveals how eleven notorious poisons affect the body--through the murders in which they were used. As any reader of murder mysteries can tell you, poison is one of the most enduring—and popular—weapons of choice for a scheming murderer. It can be slipped into a drink, smeared onto the tip of an arrow or the handle of a door, even filtered through the air we breathe. But how exactly do these poisons work to break our bodies down, and what can we learn from the damage they inflict? In a fascinating blend of popular science, medical history, and true crime, Dr. Neil Bradbury explores this most morbidly captivating method of murder from a cellular level. Alongside real-life accounts of murderers and their crimes—some notorious, some forgotten, some still unsolved—are the equally compelling stories of the poisons involved: eleven molecules of death that work their way through the human body and, paradoxically, illuminate the way in which our bodies function. Drawn from historical records and current news headlines, A Taste for Poison weaves together the tales of spurned lovers, shady scientists, medical professionals and political assassins to show how the precise systems of the body can be impaired to lethal effect through the use of poison. From the deadly origins of the gin & tonic cocktail to the arsenic-laced wallpaper in Napoleon’s bedroom, A Taste for Poison leads readers on a riveting tour of the intricate, complex systems that keep us alive—or don’t.

Becoming a mother charts the diverse and complex history of Australian mothering for the first time, exposing the ways it has been both connected to and distinct from parallel developments in other industrialised societies. In many respects, the historical context in which Australian women come to motherhood has changed dramatically since 1945. And yet examination of the memories of multiple maternal generations reveals surprising continuities in the emotions and experiences of first-time motherhood. Drawing upon interdisciplinary insights from anthropology, history, psychology and sociology, Carla Pascoe Leahy unpacks this multifaceted rite of passage through more than 60 oral history interviews, demonstrating how maternal memories continue to influence motherhood today. Despite radical shifts in understandings of gender, care and subjectivity, becoming a mother remains one of the most personally and culturally significant moments in a woman’s life.
