Champagne by Don Kladstrup5/24/2023 Wine and War is a very easy read book in a fairly informal way that was for this reviewer is a little too less than academic in presentation, a style that I prefer when reading history. Wine and War illuminates a compelling, little-known chapter of history, and stands as a tribute to extraordinary individuals who waged a battle that, in a very real way, saved the spirit of France. This is the thrilling and harrowing story of the French wine producers who undertook ingenious, daring measures to save their cherished crops and bottles as the Germans closed in on them. Like others in the French Resistance, winemakers mobilized to oppose their occupiers, but the tale of their extraordinary efforts has remained largely unknown-until now. In 1940, France fell to the Nazis and almost immediately the German army began a campaign of pillaging one of the assets the French hold most dear: their wine. Claude Terrail, owner, Restaurant La Tour d'Argent "To be a Frenchman means to fight for your country and its wine." The remarkable untold story of France's courageous, clever vintners who protected and rescued the country's most treasured commodity from German plunder during World War II. An alternate cover edition of this ISBN can be found here.

It is a guide by innovators for innovators, with approaches that are practical and timeless. If You Really Want to Change the World leads entrepreneurs through the critical stages of venture development, from concept to acquisition or public offering to maintaining a rich culture of innovation in the company. Henry Kressel and Norman Winarsky-technologists, inventors, and investors with stellar track records-provide a guide for those who wish to create a market-leading company that will have a real impact: a disciplined and staged approach they have used to launch, invest in, and develop scores of highly successful companies. If You Really Want to Change the World is about helping entrepreneurs find true north. But this fail fast, step-and-pivot philosophy is like taking a random walk in the forest without a compass. Silicon Valley's latest trend for creating new ventures is based on trial and error: test market needs with new product concepts and a minimum amount of capital, expect that the product may not meet the market need, so fail fast and try another product with the hope that a product-market fit will eventually emerge.

Books by michael moss5/24/2023 Yet the increase in obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and high blood pressure in the US over the last few decades can be linked to excessive salt, sugar, and fat, and indicates that self-control is not sufficient or not occurring at all. According to the food industry, the onus is on individual consumers to control excessive eating. The taste, convenience, and often low cost of processed food drives consumers to eat more and buy more. Through his research and interviews, Moss found that US food manufacturers load up processed food with salt, sugar, and fat to reach what they call the optimal mouthfeel and blisspoint. In 2013, investigative reporter Michael Moss came out with his bestselling book, Salt, Sugar, Fat - How the Food Giants Hooked Us. Resisting processed food might be less a matter of willpower than a fight with addiction similar to tobacco, according to Michael Moss in his new book, Hooked- Food, Free Will, and How the Food Giants Exploit Our Addictions.

Mating in captivity esther perel summary5/24/2023 Insights from Chapter 11 Insights from Chapter 1 Insights on Esther Perel's Mating in Captivity I want to be appreciated as a woman, not just as a mother, wife, or companion. #4 I want to get back the excitement I used to have in my relationship with my husband. Any person or system exposed to ceaseless novelty and change risks falling into chaos, but one that is too rigid or static ceases to grow and eventually dies. organisms require alternating periods of growth and equilibrium. #3 The need for security and novelty is a human instinct, and it is also true for every living thing. But both are often disappointed, for few people can live happily at either extreme. #2 The two camps are the romantics, who believe that passion is more important than safety and security, and the realists, who believe that safety and security are more important than passion. Well, that’s the whole problem of monogamy, isn’t it. The comments I heard at a party were hardly novel. Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.īook Preview: #1 I began writing a book about sex, and I was constantly asked about couples and eroticism.

Dragon art by graeme aymer5/24/2023 I would've liked some examples of the old-school Its quality varies, but Aymer at least selected artists with different styles and approaches. The artwork itself is mostly modern, dating back perhaps to the 1980's or late 1970'sĪt the earliest. Not helped by the odd two- or four-page spreads depicting works in progress. (including John Howe, Michael Whelan, and other big names), the images rarely coincide with the text near which they appear the arrangement seems entirely random, However, aside from an early section on famous dragon artists Rendered in various media by artists young and old, newcomers and established masters of the field. It includes an admirable array of images, depicting all manner of dragons This one came close to a full Good rating, but its ambition overshot its execution. Illustrations by artists from around the world, plus a foreword by noted fantasy artist John Howe. This book celebrates the ubiquitous dragon in fantasy art, including many Brightdreamer Books - Graeme Aymer Reviews Graeme Aymer - Reviewsīe they primordial embodiments of chaos or peaceful guardians of nature, world-encompassing serpents or fluttering fairy beasts, dragons have been around sinceīefore the dawn of history, and are likely to endure to the end of human existence.

Their flesh was in varying degrees of putrefaction the freshly stricken were slightly green and pliant, whereas the longer dead were grey and brittle – their eyes and tongues long since turned to dust, and their lips pulled back into everlasting skeletal smiles.Ī few of the guests, who had the misfortune of being too near the windows, were seized and feasted on at once. Some wore gowns so tattered as to render them scandalous other wore suits so filthy that one would assume they were assembled from little more than dirt and dried blood. Unmentionables poured in, their movements clumsy yet swift their burial clothing in a range of untidiness. Darcy outside and open his throat.īut no sooner had she grabbed the handle of her weapon than a chorus of screams filled the assembly hall, immediately joined by the shattering of window panes. There, her hand met the dagger concealed beneath her dress. Elizabeth reached down to her ankle, taking care not to draw attention. The warrior code demanded she avenge her honour. She had never in her life been so insulted. Darcy walked off, Elizabeth felt her blood turn cold.
