If all diets work, why is it such a problem for us to maintain a healthy weight while still enjoying life? & why do we fall into the trap of sending ourselves on an endless rollercoaster of boom & bust, dieting & overeating, which makes us feel bad or ashamed about ourselves? In Ian Marber s long-standing experience as a nutritional therapist, most people want to eat in a way that satisfies their hunger, enables them to enjoy good food, minimises cravings, & works with even the busiest work, or social, schedule all without gaining weight. We do not always understand how our bodies work & therefore how & what to eat. Ian explains how to ensure that the food we eat is enjoyable & converts to energy rather than fat. & we do not always think about ourselves, & food, in a positive way. We often see food as the enemy, & engage in a battle that we feel we will always lose. Or attitudes from family, friends, colleagues, & the media about our weight, or how we should look, lead many of us to try extreme diets, buy low calorie foods, or over-exercise. We learn how to diet, not how to eat, & when we treat ourselves the weight creeps back on & another cycle of emotional guilt & self-denial begins. In this revolutionary but commonsense book, Ian tells the reader how to eat so that they will never get fat. This is not a one-off diet book, it is a way of life...that works! Radical yet realistic, packed with"es & scenarios that the reader will recognise, informative yet humorous, Ian Marber delivers us from dieting. ...

Product Description

Think of a number between one & ten.

No, hang on, lets make this interesting. Between zero & infinity. Even if you stick to the whole numbers, there are a lot to choose from
- an infinite number in fact. Throw in decimal fractions & infinity suddenly gets an awful lot bigger (is that even possible?) & then there are the negative numbers, the imaginary numbers, the irrational numbers like pi which never end. It literally never ends.

The world of numbers is indeed strange & beautiful. Among its inhabitants are some really notable characters
- pi, e, the "imaginary" number i & the famous golden ratio to name just a few. Prime numbers occupy a special status.

Zero is very odd indeed: is it a number, or isnt it?

How Numbers Work takes a tour of this mind-blowing but beautiful realm of numbers & the mathematical rules that connect them.
