In The New Rules of Lifting for Women" authors Lou Schuler Cassandra Forsythe & Alwyn Cosgrove present a comprehensive strength conditioning & nutrition plan destined to revolutionize the way women work out.

Properly conditioned muscles increase metabolism & promote weight loss

Why isn't wood weaker that it is? Why isn't steel stronger? Why does glass sometimes shatter & sometimes bend like spring? Why do ships break in half? What is a liquid & is treacle one? All these are questions about the nature of materials. All of them are vital to engineers but also fascinating as scientific problems. During the 250 years up to the 1920s & 1930s they had been answered largely by seeing how materials behaved in practice. But materials continued to do things that they ought" not to have done.

Whichever side of the debate readers support " The New Shostakovich" presents them with a viewpoint which cannot be ignored." ...
