Per come la intendo io, la spiritualità non è uno sforzo in più accanto al mio lavoro, bensì una fonte dalla quale attingere per svolgerlo meglio e più facilmente.

Winner of the 2014 IACP Cookbook Award in the category of "Food Matters." The next stage in the food revolution--a radical way to select fruits and vegetables and reclaim the flavor and nutrients we've lost. Ever since farmers first planted seeds 10,000 years ago, humans have been destroying the nutritional value of their fruits and vegetables. Unwittingly, we've been selecting plants that are high in starch and sugar and low in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants for more than 400 generations. EATING ON THE WILD SIDE reveals the solution--choosing modern varieties that approach the nutritional content of wild plants but that also please the modern palate. Jo Robinson explains that many of these newly identified varieties can be found in supermarkets and farmer's market, and introduces simple, scientifically proven methods of preparation that enhance their flavor and nutrition. Based on years of scientific research and filled with food history and practical advice, EATING ON THE WILD SIDE will forever change the way we think about food.

Alex Bellos legt in Getallen ontraadseld de basisprincipes van eenvoudige wiskunde uit. Hij maakt het niet ingewikkelder dan nodig en legt op een simpele wijze rekenvraagstukken uit. Behalve over getallen en statistiek schrijft hij ook over symbolen. Door zijn enthousiaste aanpak weet hij de veelvoorkomende angst voor getallen weg te nemen. Rekenen is leuk! Hij laat zien dat het bij wiskunde vooral gaat om creatief denken en hoe wiskunde ook in andere disciplines in het leven van belang is.
