Hardback. Condición: Very Good. When it comes to looking and feeling your best, less really can be more. Discover how to maximize your sleeping, eating, exercising -- even thinking and breathing -- with minimum effort. The truth is most people don't actually need grueling, extreme workouts or aggressively limited diets to lose weight and feel proud to flaunt their bodies in bathing suits. What they need is a plan that is focused on efficiency -- the best results for the least amount of time and effort -- and one that is actually designed to be maintained for more than 30 days. In The Minimum Method, by nutrition expert and celebrity fitness trainer Joey Thurman, you'll learn a wealth of practical advice, simple nutrition truths, minimal-effort recipes, and how to exercise smarter, not harder. Instead of unrealistic workouts and time-consuming meal plans, Thurman's science-backed method is based on getting the maximum benefit out of things like quick and simple 'exercise snacks' and sleep hygiene hacks. Thurman doesn't shy away from the shortcomings of the mainstream health/fitness/diet industry -- in fact, he acknowledges and apologizes for his own past experience in perpetuating the harmful myth that everyone should be pushing their bodies to the limit in order to improve. Now, he's on a mission to help others prioritize genuine health instead of some imaginary and unattainable standard of perfection. Ultimately, The Minimum Method teaches how to adopt a healthier mindset and lifestyle: feeling your best when you don't get enough sleep, working fitness into your busiest days, getting back on track when you slip up, and celebrating your progress. With The Minimum Method, you'll have the key to better health, using small, easy changes that add up to huge, life-altering results.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. A dazzling biography of the French literary superstar Colette, who is also the subject of a major motion picture. "A fine and intelligent biography of Colette, with her long tumultuous life and the great body of her work scrupulously considered and presented with style."--The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice) NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST * WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK AWARD * NOMINATED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD Having spent her childhood in the shadow of an overpowering mother, Colette escaped at age twenty into a turbulent marriage with the sexy, unscrupulous Willy--a literary charlatan who took credit for her bestselling Claudine novels. Weary of Willy's sexual domination, Colette pursued an extremely public lesbian love affair with a niece of Napoleon's. At forty, she gave birth to a daughter who bored her, at forty-seven she seduced her teenage stepson, and in her seventies she contributed to the pro-Nazi press during the Occupation, even though her beloved third husband, a Jew, had been arrested by the Gestapo. And all the while, this incomparable woman poured forth a torrent of masterpieces, including Gigi, Sido, Cheri, and Break of Day.  Judith Thurman, author of the National Book Award-winning biography of Isak Dinesen, portrays Colette as a thoroughly modern woman: frank in her desires, fierce in her passions, forever reinventing herself. Rich with delicious gossip and intimate revelations, shimmering with grace and intelligence, Secrets of the Flesh is one of the great biographies of our time. Chosen as one of the Best Books of the Year by The Village Voice and Newsday "[Colette] has been the subject of . . . a half-dozen significant biographies over the past thirty years. Yet this one by Judith Thurman will be hard to top. . . . Its prose is smoothly urbane, at times aphoristic, always captivating."--The Washington Post Book World "It will stand as literature in its own right."--Richard Bernstein, The New York Times "[An] essential biography by a stylish writer of great sympathetic understanding and intellectual authority."--Philip Roth.…
